Travis

Description

My oldest son, Travis, actually prefers to not be photographed at all (LOL!) and when he does pose, it's always with a very serious expression (or a "fake" smile) I was so excited to capture this genuine smile during a family gathering. Cropped (heavily), desaturated, softened focus and made minor adjustments in ps.

And what a great smile he has. I have the same trouble when I am on the other side of the camera. You captured the moment very well here. #2229425
