Oh My Gracious, what a sweetheart this little boy is! Could you not eat him up with his blond hair and bright blue eyes?! And then you put him in a little white linen outfit and let his bare feet show, and every Southern momma practically falls over herself gushing at the cuteness of it all. Something about Southern mommas and bare footed little boys in linen. Gets us every time, right? Let me tell you, Hayes is a trooper. This session was HOT and the mosquitos were out of control that night. He hung with us the entire time! His momma and daddy decided to do a painting from this session, and just like I do with every heirloom painting, I melted when I saw it. Y’all, I love these portraits so much! In my opinion there is nothing that more perfectly captures the innocence and beauty of childhood. It’s an amazing way to stop time at that young age and hold on to it forever in a portrait.
We will be offering these paintings with our Easter sessions in the portrait garden here at the studio next week. Sessions are by appointment only on March 24, 25, and 26. They are $45 and receive Limited Edition pricing along with specially priced packages. We have VERY little availability remaining, so if you would like a session please call or email soon! 843-665-4646 or collin@cmsmithportraits.com
