Michael and Cecelia: Do They Come Any Cuter?

I love my job!

I had the best time last Thursday hanging out with Michael and his little sister Cecelia. They are the children of an old friend from my childhood, Irene. I've know her since she was in kindergarten! Her children are not only beautiful but they have such sweet personalities.

When I arrived, Irene greeted me in the front hall and asked me where I'd like to get started. The light in that space was perfect, so we spent a good chunk of our time in the foyer playing and shooting.

Michael is a natural. I think he could be the next Gap model. Am I right or what?





























Cecelia is on the move! It was a challenge to get a shot of her that wasn't blurry since she was always coming or going! Just look at that face. Those big, beautiful eyes!























We headed outside for a bit to grab some shots with the leaves.





We tried to get the two kids together but they were so not interested! If one stayed put, the other took off! But I really like this shot of Cecelia climbing on her big brother.



We wore Cecelia out! She actually fell asleep with her head on Michael's hip. No kidding!



How cute is that?











I had the best time hanging with you and your sweeties, Irene! I loved looking through the photo albums with Michael. He is such a doll. Just like his Mommy.

Oh, those pictures of Michael and Cecelia reading together just melt my heart! They're so sweet! And what a good brother to let his little sis fall asleep on his leg like that. Just adorable. What amazing moments you captured, Eileen!

These photos are nothing short of amazing. The compositions are refreshing and the photos are so well shot and handled. Such tender slices of time to freeze forever for the world to see. Their folks must be so happy with these shots.
Never stop shooting,
Brody

These are amazing Eileen. Actually there was a model search and I believe it will reopen in December for Gap. He definately looks straight from a magazine ad. I love the shot of her with the shoe in hand. So adorable. Nicely done :-)
