Father's Day | Aberdeen, SD Photographer

What do you get the man that has everything? And in my case, the man who has a birthday and an anniversary both a few weeks before father's day! This is what I've decided to do (and you can too)! Jason needs some photos of Cole for work. I've been told this by countless people that I've met and work with Jason. But Jason is very picky. He doesn't want Cole wearing cute clothes:

He doesn't want the cute, smile at the camera pose:

He wants Cole, for who he is and what he does. And while I can take a shot with any old camera, I want a portrait. Something that when people see it, they see the beauty (or devilish side) of my little guy shining through. Not bad lighting or crazy clothing or the junk that sits around our house. So this is my plan (and it can be yours too!): Cole and I headed to the golf course (Jason's favorite place this time of year). And while CJP did wear an outfit I think looks nice, it was something that is real to him (GO TIGERS and kahkis). We ran, had fun, and watched him put the ball in the cup (or try to put the tee marker in the cup)! Then I went home and gathered the photos that reflect Cole's personality. I chose the best, made them match, then got them printed on a large desk print (10x20). And viola - home made dad's day gift that will bring Jason joy whenever he looks up from his desk. Oh, and Grandpa P will be getting one too! 2 gifts done in one 30 minute fun session! Do you have a dad in your life that could use an instant pick-me-up throughout the day? Contact me - we'll brainstorm ideas, find the perfect location, and get the right amount of sass in those photos!
