I knew Dylan's session was going to be fun when one of the first things he told me was that he wanted pictures with his duck, Charlotte. I don't think he expected me to take him seriously, and he may have regretted saying it because I jumped all over it and said "Show me this duck!".
I don't think it's groundbreaking news that senior guys aren't usually the most excited for their pictures. They're normally there for Mom and they want to get through it as quickly as possible. So our little session with Charlie was the perfect ice breaker! I have learned, if I want genuine smiles out of senior guys, my pride and dignity need to go out the window. All I have to do is make fun of myself or do some ridiculously stupid thing and 99% of the time...I get real smiles and laughs.
Dylan was no exception. I made a lovely fool of myself lots of times...but look at those smiles!
