I think I’ve mentioned before that it’s pretty much indecent how much I enjoy going to the grocery store. It’s not that I love shopping, as much as I genuinely like the people I’ve met since “my” King Soopers opened last June. One of those people is Tom Sluder, who also happens to be a professional photographer. Tom’s been asking me about taking Maya’s photos for some time now, and after this morning, I can’t believe I didn’t take him up on it sooner!

Tom places the
ever-crawling-away subject
back into place for a photo.

pearl-obsessed subject.

Is Scott laughing yet?

Who said anything about period photos? I’m going to call my agent!

I was a bit …um… *hesitant* to dress my babycakes up in something quite so frou-frou. I actually told her that Scott will mock her, so she’d better be prepared. Trust me on this one…these turned out precious, in an Anne-Geddes-postcard, doesn’t-look-like-my-kid kind of way.

Hello???
Why hasn’t Ford
Models called yet?

After the shoot, Tom let me review the photos (stop the presses, we actually have some decent photos of us together!) and I’m impressed. He also told me that any time I’d like to come back, he’ll be delighted to take more shots of Little Miss. For. Free. He’s also going to provide me with prints of all the photos and a CD of the digital files! We’ll be doing this again…duh, ya think?

I’ll post photos after I receive the CD, of course.
