Favreau Family Portraits

 This past weekend I met one of my co-workers and his family at a local park to take some family portraits!  They have family back home that are begging for pictures so instead of going to Sears I talked them into having me photograph them.  We had a lot of fun, I got there early to scout out the locations and get some ideas of what kind of shots I was looking for.  The park was a good spot since it had everything from a lake and boat dock to an ampitheater and lots of grassy space.  I made them trek all over the place but we got some really great pictures.  Their son is totally adorable, with bright blue eyes and white blond hair as you can see below!  Mom and Dad even brought him a couple different outfits to change into and I had a great time taking his picture.  The cowboy hat and boots photo is for his grandmother, I’m told she has pics of all the grandkids about that age dressed like that!
