Jenia Johnson Photography

Well, Hayden had his photo shoot with Jenia Johnson that he won off of her blog for the cutest kid contest. We went to Camellia Bay out here at the Rez on Friday afternoon and had so much fun. While we were waiting on Jenia we had some play time so he was running all over the place being a typical boy, playing in the dirt, trying to climb trees, sitting by the water watching the ducks and geese, he also found a huge dirt pile to play in. At least that's what he thought it was, before I had to get over to him and inspect what he was playing in he was standing up, crying and saying, "ouch ants!!!". Yeah, this isn't cool when you haven't even started the photo shoot yet and your kid is already very upset and unhappy. They bit his hands a few times and got all in his clothes but I ripped those off quickly. Good thing I had a change of clothes because he refused to put his cute little jeans, collar shirt, and boots back on. Once Jenia got there and he warmed up to her, he was off having fun again. The photos turned out great, Jenia did an excellent job with getting his attention and just capturing his boyish nature of climbing in trees and having fun! After she got all the pictures she wanted of him running around everywhere she gave him this HUGE over sized lollypop and let him eat it while sitting in a little wooden chair. Absolutely adorable!!!! We don't have any of the pictures yet, but she did put a teaser up on her blog of 3 photos she took if you want to check them out. I will definitely be recommending her to anyone with children because she is great! She does to studio photos, but mainly does photos of them outside so she can capture them being themselves having fun and not being posed.

No, she does a little bit of studio stuff as well, but I don't think it's her favorite. She has a photography page also for some portfolio work and to get to know her. The address is www.jeniajohnsonphotography.com
