Oakley's Portraits

We finally went and got professional portraits done of Oakley. It's been an entire year, and we hadn't gotten any portraits until now. It's not like he doesn't have enough pictures of him (taken by Bobshi primarily) plastered all over our house! He was getting really tired and was ready for a nap as soon as we got to the studio. And the photographer (whom I had little faith in until after I saw the pictures she did get) kept trying to get him to sit on her red light. Now, imagine how hard and frustrating it was to try to get him to stay still-all he wanted to do was rummage through all the props. On top of that, she wouldn't take the picture unless he was looking right at her, so I thought she bypassed so many good opportunities to click just because he wasn't looking. But, like I said, they turned out wonderful-I was so surprised!!!

What a cutie! You must have gone to Target, the backgrounds look similar to our pictures. I am glad she got some good shots, it is always a gamble when you take a baby for pictures!

The picture with you kissing him looks like (1) he is in a dress and (2) you are just kissing yourself when you were one, or photoshopped an old picture of yourself in. It's kind of creepy.

They look great!
