Meet Liam....
Liam is one of the most adorable little boys you could ever meet! I had a few minutes alone with Liam before we started the session... it was great. What a pleasure it was to just spend time with Liam playing and reading, I had a blast surprising his parents with images that they did not even know I took.
You never know what you are going to get with the weather around here these days, and on this day the Northwest was living up to its reputation. BUT... we were blessed with about 45 minutes without rain! I am actually glad it had been wet, it allowed me to get some great wet and rainy shots!!
What could be better than a traditional yellow rain slicker and
froggy boots?
There was a great little park right by Liam's house that had amazing birds, a pond, bridges, beavers and lots of neighbors (I thought it was amazing that Liam could identify all of the neighbors by their dogs!) This place is a toddlers dream. Do you remember walking like this with your parents....
What do you think comes next?.... one....two ... three.......
swiiinnngggg.
It's no wonder that swinging like this makes every child smile and giggle with delight. Liam had the security of his parents hands as he flew through the air. I can look at this image and imagine the drop in his stomach as he
wooshes up in the air and feel the cool breeze over his face.
It is amazing what all I can learn about a family during a photo session.....
An hour after our shoot, they were headed off to the airport so that Liam's daddy could go out of the country to visit his own dad. I love this shot of Liam with his daddy... can you imagine what they both were thinking about.... Liam was twirling his daddy's zipper probably not really aware that he was leaving... and his daddy was squeezing him tight and probably thinking about how much he would miss this precious son of his and how soon he would be able to be with his own father.
In this short 45 minutes, I was able to play with this amazing and articulate little boy who loves reading and playing with his toys... he loves his silly glasses..... he loves singing with his mommy... he loves splashing in puddles... and he loves spotting birds and beavers at the pond.
I can not tell you what it feels like to have families trust me enough to capture these special moments in their lives. I am such a lucky girl!!

We love Liam! Sara, wow did you capture his adventurous spirit and engaging smile. We were introduced to the Beaver Pond by the Duffy's and I love that I can recognize all of the locations... great memories of Zia and Liam playing togethere there. Thank you for sharing these with all of us!
Oh Sara...these photos are wonderful and special and lovely. Thank you so much for being so warm and making us feel so comfortable. Your work is beautiful, and I am so happy we found you to capture all of these great memories for us! I can't forward the blog link to any of the grandparents yet because your beautiful photos are surprise Christmas gifts!
