Tom Pappa photography: The Eason Boys

Photography has brought many opportunities my way as of late and for that I am extremely grateful. Not only do I get to practice my passion, it has also allowed me to reconnect with friends...

A couple weeks back a dear old friend Shannon facebook'd me inquiring about pictures of her boys and a couple family shots. I had to pick up the phone on this one - I have known Shannon for 10+ years and for a few of those years, we worked directly across from each other.

Shannon has an awesome husband Derek and 2 boys, Ayden who is 2 years 8 months and Jaxon who is just 8 months old. The last time I had seen Shannon was before she had Ayden almost 3 years ago! I had so much FUN chasing Ayden around their fun-filled backyard. He is a HAM in action. Check out the hair this kid rocks, can you say adorable?!?!

Speaking of adorable...I awww'd out loud when Shannon brought Jaxon out from his nap. Big baby eyes and big baby cheeks, what more could a camera ask for?

Shannon, it was really great to see you! You seem so happy and that makes me happy. It always warms me to see someone I haven't seen in years and to feel like no time has passed. No small talk or dry conversation, no awkwardness....as if we picked up where we left off.

Hope to see you again soon!
