Amber asked if I would photograph the festivities for her son’s 3rd birthday this past weekend. Having shot her young family before and knowing how photogenic they were, I was excited for this opportunity. There were something like 40 million children and an equal number of animals in a mobile petting zoo (including two ponies!) that was hired to dazzle the kids. And dazzle it did. It was like giving a little girl a…pony…or something. I don’t know, my metaphors are lacking. My point is, kids love animals, and when the animals come to them, so much the better. I’m pretty sure I’m going to have them come to my next birthday.
Below are a few of the various shots from this super fun day. It was agonizing picking my favorites, because there were so many happy kids and so many great pictures. Amber is getting a DVD with something like 400 photos on it!
Finally, can you tell which picture is of the exotic rabbit?
And finally, a few of the horse pictures done with a decidedly vintage feel.
that crazy white puff is a RABBIT? wow!!
also, gorgeous pictures as usual. we get compliments all the time on ours!
Thanks Natalie. Aren’t we shooting again some time? :)
And yes, that’s a rabbit. It looks like a little dog in person.
I’ve never seen such a thing!
So, when this party on wheels comes to your next birthday can I be the photographer? ‘Cause that sounds incredibly entertaining!
You did such a great job capturing the excitement of the day, Jake! You are very talented.
