Since Sunil and I were in North Carolina this weekend - for a wedding and a vacation - we stopped by to see some of his family.  

Photographing kids that are adorable is a beautiful thing.

Photographing kids that are adorable that I'm related to (now!) is infinitely better. Nephews are pretty much the best. Enjoy. :)

I adore photographing kids.  

Little kids, big kids... of all different shapes and sizes!

But I have a soft spot...

For little boys.

Now, don't get me wrong....

My little nieces are the most adorable things on the entire planet.

(And I will fight you if you disagree.)

But there's something about little boys....

Maybe it's the toes...

Or the way they jump on couches...

Or the goofy little grins...

But when I see those little boyish faces...

I get all melty inside.

Especially these...

I love the laughter that spills out of them...

And the brief silent moments. (Did I mention brief?)

The cute little toes... (I know I know... I already said that...)

And the way they get lost in their own little worlds...

Most of all, I love seeing and photographing them in their own element.

Where they play...

And where they live...

Because I love little boys.
