I love my skin-heads...

When Kelly joined the Air Force, I decided that it was too expensive for him to get haircuts twice a month...I mean, how hard could it be to give a haircut, right?? Anywho, I began cutting his hair and continued to cut his hair until about 2 years ago when I decided that it was WAY too much trouble to cut his hair and the boys...and so he started getting haircuts on base (and boy is it worth the money!)... Anywho, I give the boys a haircut once every about 4-6 weeks...and I try not to plan it b/c neither one of them enjoy it much (in fact, little B gets VERY anxious about the whole thing)...so I just spring it on them... Well, today was the day I decided they needed a haircut...and Kelly's been wanting me to shave both of their heads for awhile now...but they both just look so cute with hair--especially Corbin, who has a VERY large head & shaving it seems to accentuate it (I know this from the last time I shaved it about 2 years ago)...and Brendan is just the opposite--his head looks small--especially next to Corbin's... But I gave in tonight...it's already so hot and why not...it'll grow back, right? The only thing was that I told Kelly he had to shave his, too...

So that's all this post is about...pics of my sweet guys with no hair...Kelly looks like he did on deployment...Brendan isn't too bad--his owie on his head is getting the most attention...but Corbin, well, his head looks really huge...and white...in fact, we can't decide whether he looks like a cancer patient or one of Dan Akroid's kiddos from the movie "Cone Heads"...

Oh well...I hope you enjoy the pics...

Blessings,
Candace

I am a professional photographer... been doing this for 15 years.

As a photographer/artist it is imperitive that you develop an "equal oportunity eye" ... in other words, even when it comes to those you love the most, you need to be able to really see what looks good and what doesn't. Not everyone's head is beautiful when bald... some people have awfully shaped heads (not their fault) that NEED a covering. Your boys are lovely, but they NEED hair....

Also, your youngest boy needs to be shot in photographs from above and never from eye level. It will help. Trust me.

You have a good eye and obviously a passion. I have been lurking on your web site for about a year.... This is my first time commenting.

Hopefully my comments aren't viewed as offensive.... just trying to help a sista out!

I love the picture of the boys looking at each other and rubbing their heads. I think it's great that you shaved their heads for summer. It's only hair. It will grow back. Every little boy needs to experience a summer with no hair.
