Description

I was told that the 1/2 was very important. LOL Used a reflector board to bounce light up onto his face.

Thank you everybody for the nice comments. This is actually my next door neighbor's boy. I agree he does look older here, maybe because his hair is spiked. But yes, in this picture he was just over the 4 1/2 mark. Thanks for viewing. #2431084
