Typical Session with Jasper

Jasper turned eleven months this week so we had one of our mini photo sessions.  They are typically 30 minutes of pure craziness!  I thought it was hard to photograph him as a baby being the mom and the photographer, but at least then he didn't move.  Being both mom and photographer now, I don't get that luxury of having an initial fifteen minutes of shyness towards me, like I do with all other kids, to get some great images without him moving.  And he is so comfortable with my big camera already that crawls to me to look at the picture on the back, and he even takes my camera apart!He loves playing with my Gary Fong Lightsphere!  For those non-photographers, it goes on top of my flash to diffuse the light.  Right away, he grabbed it off my flash, looked at it...yelled in it...crawled away with it, and then tried to put it in his barn.  There definitely aren't any dull moments anymore with this little one!
