So when Matt said in his email introduction to me, that as a family they liked to play a game that involved 50 wiffle balls and a staircase, I got a little extra excited for this shoot. (I’ll never hear the words “wiffle ball” without hearing this song. Somewhat inappropriate for a family photo blog? Maybe, but I am a child of the 80′s with a special spot in my heart for the Beastie Boys.) Ahem, anyhow, as I was saying, this family = FUN. Malcolm and Anousheh could not have been more beautiful, him with those eyelashes, her flashing smiles at her papa. Um, can we take a second to talk about those curling eyelashes? They slay me. I probably shot 20 frames just focused on that sweet (and patient) boy’s eyelashes. And Anousheh’s eyes, I don’t even know what you call that color but I could have stared into them all day. Yep, I pretty much fell in love with this family; even the dog, Rooster, got in on the action. And even though it was raining so hard we didn’t make it out any further than the front stoop, these guys gave me plenty to work with: love, snuggles, laughs, yawns, wrastling, big windows and a cute dog. Oh yeah, and wiffles balls. Fifty multi-colored wiffle balls. Fun, I say, F-U-N!
tweedediting - "I did it like this, I did it like that, I did it with a PosyQuartermanAwesomePhotography bat!" How do you find the seemingly raddest and most photogenic families in the world? I suppose you have something to do with the photogenic part . . .
Posy Quarterman - I heart you Katie VH! I don't know how I find them, or rather, they find me, but I am SO glad they do!
kati - sweet! that second from the top is my faaaave
Posy Quarterman - Thanks, Kati! I'm kind of partial to the one of Malcolm rolling past his sister – you know, in that 3-year-old I'm not gonna do what you want me to do kind of way. That moment was perfect! I also love the last frame. Wait, I love them all, that's why I blogged SO many! It's funny how emotionally attached you get to your photos, huh? xo
