Alexander’s Close Up!.
Aw, gush…check out Alexander’s close up!
I simply adore this photo my husband Peter, recently took of Alexander, 10 months. Slightly and intentionally soft, it represents our dreamy, unconditional love of him. Always smiling, Alexander looks into the camera curiously with his big brown eyes as if to say hello, already enjoying the attention the camera brings.
An unconventional portrait, it’s almost a parent’s point view, the moment before we reach in and kiss him.
I love that I can see three of his six little teeth and there’s dribble on his t-shirt. Peter has caught this time in our baby’s life perfectly.
