Did I confuse you guys enough?!
My 1st un-official/official Jaxy shoot...?
Well, I just meant that I "sort of" planned this little experience photo shoot of my favorite lil guy.
I finally have my slr, & one CUTE little subject to photo!
Plus, he (my 3 year old) kind of listened to mommy's instructions...
(Lol... basically that just means I was able to get him to not run the other direction, for about 3 minutes!)
my secret tip... I was asking him these CRAZY questions that he REALLY had to think hard about!
Example: "Jaxy, if you were an elephant... would you want to wear polka dot swim trunks, blue trunks w/ pink flowers... OR a great red pair of red Toms shoes?!"
HAhaaa... I'm a big meanie. BUT... it sort of worked, & he thought my questions were quite amusing!
(Hey, I'll do just about anything to get a good picture, especially of my little monkey!)
Ahhh... this was the MOST fun.
Besides being a mommy, Photography is no doubt my passion.
I can't wait to see where this journey takes me!
Jaxy shoot~ {Take 2} coming tomorrow

These are really sweet, Melanie. Great job!
good luck with your photography adventure, I would love to get my hands on a 'proper' camera photography is my passion too but due to my lack of funds and terribly cheap point and shoot it will have to remain just my hobby
He is CUTE! I adore all the different expressions, not just "cheese" shots.
Aw girl these are FANTASTIC! I do that with Torch ALLLLL the time! :) just take him somewhere and get what I can get! :) Beautiful! and love the tip of asking silly questions!
Adorable! What a great way to get him to stay still.
You did a great job!!!!!! Love the expressions- I am going to have to use those when I start taking pics of other people's kids.
What a cutie!
It is HARD getting good pictures of little ones. My daughter is one and walking all over the place. It is hard to get a good shot when she won't even stand still. Plus she avoids looking at the camera at all costs!
Love his crooked little smile!
So cute! Love the idea of the questions. I'm going to attempt a 3 year shoot with Jae, so I may have to use that trick!
Great shots! I love all the colors! His green shirt really pops against the blue door, and the red brick, and gray cement! Very cool!
Woa wait a sec! Jax is older than TT??!! I had no idea! Oh he is just too CUTE!!!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the location for your photo session! That blue door is AMAZING and now I'm going to hunt down my own blue door! :-) So perfect for him... and the pics just make me plain old happy!!!!! You did an AWESOME JOB!!! xoxo
You're funny, you stumped him with the elephant question huh? Love all of these shots; can't choose a favorite!
Great job Melanie!! I love the location you chose, those blue doors really make Jax's gorgeous blue eyes pop. I'll have to remember your trick with those good questions :)
Such cute shots of your handsome guy! Cool red shoes!!
I'm smitten with him...I love his smile, his eyes, his cute little mischievous face...you can totally tell he always means well...even if he does happen to have a mishap with momma's jewelry :-(

great job getting him to sit still for 3 minutes! I can NEVER get charlie to look at me...unless I tell him NOT to look at me, but even then it's for a split second until he figures out I tricked him so I have to be super fast. : )
Totally adorable photos of your son! I love your tip on asking the crazy questions! :) Definitely one to keep in the arsenal when I have kids someday.
Awe, these are great, Mel! I know how you feel, about photography, it makes me giddy!! I can't wait to see where it takes you either!!
That crooked little smile is so sweet! Nicely done!
