IT’S CHICKEN TIME. I was very excited to spend some quality time with this long-time CSP family and their newfound chickens! The chickens, it turns out, were very excited to have their photos taken and were not shy chickens at all. They had a great time pecking around and posing for photos. Zero camera-shyness. And I had a great time, as usual, bouncing around with the humans as well, hanging out in tents and with chickens and on climbing equipment (and under it). Earlier this year, the eldest child participated in the Feather Classic where you show off your chicken to be judged and it was quite amazing. I’m hoping that the family skyrockets to Feather Classic fame, like a televised version of the National Dog Show, but for chickens. The kids are pros at handling chickens and caring for chickens, as well as collecting eggs (also pros at giving the chickens great names such as Puppy and Banana). And while not chickens, you might even recognize a few familiar paper-mache heads around the shoot… ;)
Love these guys! We spent a chilly little fall morning walking around the neighborhood path, spotting a heron, playing on the playground, and doing this small child’s favorite activity: running. He runs everywhere. He is so fast and he also likes to loudly proclaim, “runninnnnggggg!!!” as he runs, which I think is important. He’s got big smiles and lots of energy and is also already half my size. I always have a great time photographing Krishna and Dan’s family – they have a great sense of humor, keep things light and easy, and are always a fun time.
Had a lovely fall weekday morning meeting these folks at the park to take some updated family pictures! They love this park where their active kiddo can run around the playground and ride his bike while his dad does practice runs for his marathons. I am quite honored that said bike now has CSP bat stickers on it. :D I love these folks and have worked with them for a while now and they’re SUCH good people raising an incredible kid and I’m glad that there’s folks like them in my community and in the world. We blew bubbles, drew Halloween chalk art, did mid-air flips, and went down slides, all the while taking pictures of the love they have for life and each other. Enjoy this fun little session.
