Mr. Cadbury and his chicks

Here comes Peter Cottontail. Hoppin down the bunny trail. Hippity Hoppity Easter’s on its way!

I have been wanting to do a session with baby chicks and bunnies for a long time. It screams spring and Easter and precious babies! But where on earth do you find baby chicks and bunnies? If you happen to have a very best friend building a chicken coop then it is your lucky day! And it was most certainly mine!

It is difficult enough to get babies and toddlers to look at the camera, but try slouching bunnies and hungry chicks! I have to admit that I was a little worried about my vision coming to life… and being rained on the weekend before was not the best start…but OH MY GOODNESS if I did not have the most gorgeous children and the best animal models!

It was truly one of the best afternoons! Thanks to all the moms and dads for braving the challenge with me! And a special shout out to “chick-chick,” “rocket” (Liam’s name for one of the chicks which is better than the initial pick-pocket) and “Mr. Cadbury” himself!

And I would not have been able to make this happen without the incredible generosity of Sayler and Greg for opening their home, sharing their animals and holding a few props! Thanks for everything!
