I had the privilege of spending some time with Sara and Chris, my last family portraits of the year. Chris is a very handsome young man that makes taking photos easy! When I first got there I was introduced to the kitties.
This little cutie did not have a name yet. They had just gotten it that day. In order to make Chris feel more comfortable I let him show me the kitties and let him try to take a picture or two. We made a deal…I would take 5 pictures of him and the kitty and them he had to take a picture with his mom…
The plan seemed to work, and as soon as he felt comfortable with me, he turned in to a great subject! As a Boise family photographer, I realize it is really important to get the child to trust you and feel comfortable in order to get great photos. 
After a couple formal indoor shots we went out side, and that is where the real fun began! 
what is better than a slide??? Swinging with mommy of corse! :) 
Then mommy helped me sit him in a tree to get some great portraits of Chris alone.
And last but not least…we chased some ducks! 
Sara and Chris~ I really enjoyed getting to know you. You are a great little family, and I am excited to photograph you again in 2010! Merry Christmas!
