Elijah.

Elijah spent the majority of his session trying to hate it BUT didn’t take long for him to give in and laugh it out with me. TEENAGE BOYS! I WILL win you over!

That smirk on the right. I was breaking him against his will.😆

Love that smile!

There was a whole crew of people chilling on the sidewalk where this mural was, legit 8′ from him. I asked him before walking down if he was ok with a crowd watching. “It’s cool!” They ended up being a hype crew, ‘Shoulders back, man, you lookin’ good! Where’s that smile?” I love that about people when I’m downtown. 😍

Baby sis was along for the ride and they have such a sweet relationship!

Those dimples!😍

😍

Handsome young man!

There was a lady sitting in her trunk putting on her shoes and she heard me trying to get him to relax more and open up. I was cracking up because she started yelling at him and was way more aggressive than I was. 😆

LOVE.

So good!

Ummm that is absolutely not normal, brah.

I know you didn’t love it, but most boys don’t and thats ok. You did it for your mama and she thanks you! 🥰 I think by the end you secretly were having fun though. 😬Definitely giving up smiles and laughs! It was good to chat with you guys again! Heart, Melanie
