Shooting Stars
Two weeks ago Justin Alexander got a call for his 3rd talent agency gig: a photo shoot for Smart Beginnings (the Virginia Early Childhood Foundation). How did it go? It was an adventure! His only task was to stand in front of a white backdrop with a big gold star and smile... but when we got there he may as well have told us, "I'll do whatever they ask... as long as they don't need me to stand in front a white backdrop or deal with anything star-shaped. I hate those things." He was so adamant about not having anything to do with the star, you would have thought that we uncovered his biggest fear. He went from being the happiest baby in the world in the waiting room, to becoming that "impossible celebrity to work with" in about 60 seconds flat. The only things missing were his personal assistant (oh wait... I guess that was me and V) and a request for imported water and a bigger trailer.
In all, it was a big reminder that toddlers will be toddlers. And you just never know what you're going to get from one second to the next. But at the end of the day, the photographer got the shot he needed, Justin never had to touch the star thanks to the power of Photoshop, and daddy got the workout of a lifetime chasing him around the studio. All in a day's work.
