On yet another overcast – and very chilly – day in Cleveland, I photographed brothers Cooper, 6, and Finn, 1. Five years is a cute age difference, because the bigger sibling feels like a caretaker – and they really are in two totally different stages. Cooper is very loving and protective of Finn – minus some accidental pulls and shoves (he is 6, after all). Finn, poor guy, was not feeling so great but pulled through for our session – with some blanket-covered snuggles and time with his pacifier sprinkled throughout.
You’d never know he was sick, right?! Here, we did a sneaky pacifier trick – Cooper would let him have it for a few seconds, and then we’d do a countdown for him to pull it out for a couple quick frames. Worked like a charm!
Cooper, the budding quarterback, already trying to get little Finn interested in the game:
And some solo shots of Finn, in his glory, toddling around in the damp grass:
Lastly, Cooper showing off his new skateboarding skills (I think Tony Hawk has a new model for his kids’ line…):
