My 4th of 5 sessions this past weekend (and the first I can blog about because all prior are Christmas stuff that will remain under wraps) - this 18th month old was so happy, easy going, and completely enamored with the trains in downtown Longview. If I can go 80s on you, this place was TOTALLY RAD for a boy's photo shoot! I was so excited the family was up for this location.
He's got a great duo as parents. He is one loved little boy.
This is where the real fun began. We watched as the yellow Union Pacific engine rolled by and came to a stop right around the old buildings we were using. Little man's dad simply walked over and began talking to the engineer about the trains and asked if they could climb on for a few pictures. No problemo, which led to a very neat opportunity.
Here is Little Man seeing the rain, turning around to see if Mom was watching him, then him taking off towards the train. Next thing you know......
We ended up getting a tour of the engineer's area of the train (I'm sure there is a technical term for this). Little Man got to press the button to make the train blow its whistle, ding-ding, and flash lights. Below you can see the sequence of events.
His response to pushing the button...
After train time, we headed over to a softer side of downtown for some relaxed, candid shots.
All in all, a very fun experience for all involved, and a memorable one at that. Sometimes there are so many neat images from a session that it's hard to pick, and this one was no exception. Keep on reminding myself - this is a SNEAK, not the whole album! :)
