i am precious

meet jacob. he just turned one year old not too long ago and has perfected his camera smile. he's a lot easier to work with than some of the model types i've shot in the past. he's an absolute natural in front of the lens and these photos prove it.

getting him to smile was easier than... taking candy from a baby?

he insisted that this was his favourite pose - who was i to argue?

a little easily distracted, but photogenic nonetheless!

working it

ah - the perfect picture!

thanks, jacob, for letting me take pictures of you! your professionalism is outstanding, and i look forward to seeing you on the cover of a magazine one of these days (just remember to tell them you already have a photographer ;)
