I met this wonderful family about 11 years ago when I was working in one of their son’s classrooms. From the first day of knowing him you fall in love. Some of the fun memories I have of him as a preschooler are: Halloween, when he dressed as Mr Incredible. When he came to school with a perfect speaker grid bruise from where he bumped his forehead on it. Probably asking him 500 times to please sit down in his seat at story time. He was a character then always filling the room with joy and is an even bigger character now. This shoot was taken at the beginning of spring break ( I know I’m so bad about blogging) on a cool early morning at Huntington Beach.This was their first pitstop of their road trip to visit some schools for their older boy, Harrison. Camden had everyone in hysterics when he was telling a fairly hefty dude in a wet suit how sexy him tummy was. I still smile when I see the photos. Some shoots feel like work while others just feel like you are laughing and having fun with old friends..this was one of those types.
**I would like to add that if you or any one you know has Downs Syndrome I would LOVE to photograph you as part of a personal project I am working on. I can’t get enough of these guy’s beautiful eyes and pure souls! Please contact me at lara@larajenkinsphoto.com or hit “contact me” on the header of this blog. Thanks!
