There is a great story to go with these awesome photos. Our Primary School has an auction every other year to help with funding. (just like dozens of other schools) They always hold it at a fancy golf club, and I always feel WAY out of my league when I attend, but that is a side note.
This year a professional photographer, Nina Beilby, who owns Eminent Images, donated her services to photograph EVERY child in the school, so the parents could purchase them with 100% of the proceeds going to our school. It was an amazing undertaking.
She photographed all of them successfully. When she was done, I started hearing multiple comments about Calder's photo ( I hadn't seen it yet). Then I got an e-mail from a friend (who organized the auction) asking if they could use Calder's photo for display in the school - to advertise the photo auction. I said sure, and was told that I had to come and see it at the school on Monday. So I did. It was AMAZING! She had blown it up to be 3 feet by 5 feet and it was right inside the front door!! Calder felt like a celebrity for 2 months straight!! It was really cute.
Anyway, we got the photos that we had purchased, the last week of school. Nina's son, Patrick, was in Levi's class and on the last day of school (at the school party) she came up to me and asked if she could use Calder's photo on her website and business cards. She said that she would compensate me by either more prints of Calder and Levi, or with a photo shoot of my other two little guys. Nina is from Australia, and so she said all of this in a very cool Aussie accent. I chose a shoot with the little guys.
The photo shoot just happened last week. We did it at a local park. She was amazing. When Nina saw Ansel and Kaelan, she exclaimed over how cute they were and then asked if she could use all of the kids on her website. I signed the waivers, she got the rights and I got the photos! What a deal!!!
So, without further ado.... Here they are!
Which, of Ansel and Kaelan’s, do you like best???
