Becton

I photographed Becton's fourth birthday session last week, and it was so much fun! Alabama in the summer is hot and humid, so even though we started early, it was already the beginning of a very warm day! We shot out in the country, at the old home place of Becton's great-great-grandfather. The scent of honeysuckle layered the air, and it so reminded me of when I was Becton's age, running up and down the red dirt roads!

Becton's great-grandfather stopped by while we were shooting. He really didn't want to be in the photographs, but you know how I feel about hands...

 How old are you going to be, Becton?  "Four!!"

After tiring of snake patrol, washcloth wiping duty, and bee alert, we went back to town to check out Becton's new house.  It's lovely, and there's even a friendship gate in the yard! Oh, and did I mention the swing??  Love it!

You're a lucky boy, Becton! I hope you have a wonderful fourth birthday!
