Averi | Grand Junction Children's Photographer

The first time I met and photographed this little one she was a bit shy. Her parents had brought her into Kairo's for our first set of Mini Sessions. I got some beautiful images of her there but she was pretty reserved and really didn't want much to do with me or my camera. We all agreed that she'd open up and really let me in if I photographed her at home. And she did. It had been a while since I had seen little Averi. I had been to her home a couple of times already for the previous ordering session and when I delivered images. She remembered me. She immediately grabbed my hand and wanted to show me all of her things. I have that effect on the little ones. It happens often. I always try to give them a few minutes just for them before we get down to business. I makes them special. It makes me their friend. And it makes for incredible images that show your child's true personality.
