Haircut Number Two
We waited until the very last second to get Brayden a haircut. He needed one so bad for the last couple of weeks, but Chuck and I were dreading taking him after what happened the first time. We learned a couple of lessons though from that first haircut:
1) As cute as those little cars and airplanes are, Daddy’s lap is a much better place to be. Don’t even attempt the cars or airplanes!
2) NO SMOCK! B definitely does not like the smock.
3) A lot of suckers are needed. Suckers and new Hot Wheels to choose from.
4) Sit directly in front of a TV with Thomas the train playing.
He still cried a little, but he did much, much, much better this time around! Thank goodness! I love his new haircut, but he looks like such a big boy! Kind of makes me a little sad!
This backdrop is from Drop It Modern. I’ve been admiring their backdrops for sometime now, but I don’t have a studio and wasn’t planning on shooting anything in doors. But, I’m planning on doing some fun and different (for me at least) newborn pictures soon so I decided to invest in one. You all know I’m a fan of just plain old fabric backdrops, but the great thing about the Drop It Modern backdrops are that they are a really thick material so they don’t wrinkle. Mine is a little wrinkled in this picture because I literally just pulled it out of the box. It will be much easier to get the wrinkles out than thin fabric and I think it will store much easier than fabric. I just pinned it to the wall really quickly and snapped a few shots of my crazy boy because that’s all the time he will allow me these days! They are a bit of an investment (ie not as cheap as fabric), but the quality is great and they ship same day so I got it fast!

Thank you for the tip on where you got the gorgeous backdrop. I just ordered a stand to bring along for certain on-location newborn sessions. What a great excuse to pick up a new backdrop.
Cute, cute pics! I love the backdrop!

Hi, a friend of mine sent me to your blog and I just love the photos you take. I have been trying to learn about photography but taking pictures indoors seems to be my downfall. I was wondering if you could share how you get such nice even coloring without a yellow or orange cast to your indoor photos (like daddy and son in the hair salon) Thanks for sharing your awesome talent.
So adorable!
He does look older but still so cute!
