Trick, or Treat?
Here’s another one of my little neighborhood friends.
He and his mom stopped by for a few minutes while Bradley’s birthday cake was in the oven.
I’m supposed to be shooting his family (photographically speaking, of course) on Monday.
But he fell off a swing a few weeks ago and banged up his nose pretty good.
Can’t tell, can you? (Some quick photoshop magic!)
We had lots of fun walking around.
Even though it was high noon.
You probably can’t see it, but he’s making dragon noises!
I love the colors. That’s a sugar maple tree, by the way.
Bradley was a dragon the year he turned 2. Or maybe it was the year he turned 3. I can’t remember now.
OH NO! THE CAKE!!!!!!!
This is one of my all-time favorite pictures!
Thanks for dropping by!
Have fun trick-or-treating! (Word to the wise: don’t eat all your candy at once, little man!)

My family calls me "the mamarazzi."
Thank you Julie! I spent hours with him in costume and didn’t get one shot worth framing. You spent 10 minutes with him and it’s amazing (while baking a cake, none the less)! You’re incredible.
Happy Birthday Bradley! I hope you enjoyed the cake!
