Evelyn Mini Session

Whimsical Teepee| Pratt, KS

I have always envisioned taking pictures of Evelyn with a tent or teepee. For some reason I got the wild hair to do just that one evening last week. It was nice outside and I had nothing better to do. I have been taking photos of my paintings on the backside of our shed and that area was where I wanted to set-up for this session. What I didn't realize was that just standing back there would get Evelyn excited. She walked right up to the door step, sat down, and said "take my picture". I hadn't even said anything or done anything to suggest that was what I was going to do, so of course I went with it. Setting up the "teepee" was difficult and Evelyn loved knocking it down. That really got we concerned and I was about to scrap the whole idea. Telling Evelyn I would take her picture if she would keep it up seemed to work because once we got started she didn't even bother to touch it. Now for being a two year old I was quite surprised at how well she did with this session. Before when I've taken her picture it was all fun and games. This time she was a perfect little model, and even more so when I gave her a "treat", if you can consider an apple a treat. All and all these photos have to be some of my favorites.
