This is Oliver. If you’ve followed my blog, you’ve met him before since I take his photos every six months (Dana has to be the most organized person I know to make this happen). Check him out at ages six months, one year, and one and a half years.
And here is the little man today. Being all cranky until he gets his Starbucks in the morning.
Just kidding. That’s just milk in there.
Dana, Albert, and Oliver were such good sports when I suggested that we started shooting by 8am if we wanted to do this in Old Town Pasadena for the best light. Of course, it turned out to be a chilly, foggy morning. But we had fun anyway!
The happy family! Let me just take a minute to say how amazing Dana and Albert looked. Whatever it is they’ve been doing, I should probably be doing too. Although Albert did mention that running after a two-year-old really helps, so yeah, I guess I won’t be doing that anytime soon…well, unless I’m shooting them with my camera.
Wait, how old is Oliver again? Oh, that’s right. TWO.
I think this might be the first photo I’ve taken of Dana and Albert sans Oliver. Sometimes it’s so easy to just put all your focus on the child.
Now, the Joneses are a big football family. Since he was one, Oliver has been able to throw his arms straight up in the air when someone yells “touchdown!” This time, I’ve found that he’s learned something new – the three-point stance. And here he goes at it, heading off to tackle his father. All with Snuggy Bear in one hand.
That last image? Yeah, I’m not sure exactly what he was doing there, but I like to think it’s something along the lines of, “Yeah. What.”
Dana and Albert – as usual, thanks again for letting me into your lives for a couple of brief hours and document a growing Oliver. It was great catching up with you and I look forward to doing it all over again this summer!
