Alden Modeling Again

So, yesterday I took Alden modeling again and it was really fun.  This was another modeling shoot for a clothing line but it was a little different this time.  For this modeling shoot we drove for about an hour to a place called Paju which is up closer to North Korea.  The modeling shoot took place in a model home that they could set up so that they could take pictures in the kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, playroom and wherever else they needed to take photos.  It was an all day photo shoot which meant we left before 9 and didn't get back until after 5.  This meant that they fed us lunch and had snacks for us all day long.  They had rice and various things to eat with the rice like kimchii, broccoli, some bean dish, and other things for lunch.  The funny thing about it was that they kept asking me and the other mom if that was okay or if we needed them to order pizza for us.  They food they had was good so me and the other mom saw no reason to have them get pizza.

Throughout the whole photo shoot Alden did really well and seemed to have a lot of fun.  Below are photos that I took while I was there.  They told me I could take as many photos as I wanted of whatever I wanted to so here they are.  I also got the link to the company's website and they said that the photos they use should be posted around the end of July.

They put Alden in his first outfit, these cute PJs, right when we got there and then Alden wanted to explore.

These outfits were a lot more basic and simple than the last company that Alden modeled for.  Alden also made friends with all the staff there.

 Alden took a little break to drink his bottle and got to use the big dog they were using in some of the photos as a pillow.

 Then they wanted Alden to hug the dog and sit still for the next photograph but he was too active.  So they had the other little boy do it.  He was only eight months old and could not walk or crawl yet so he did a lot better for that photo. (See below)

This was obviously a girl's outfit, but since there were only two boys doing all the modeling they had to put at least one in a girl's outfit.  Alden made it look cute and I guess it won't really matter because he is a baby.

Here Alden is playing with a school bus shaped container.  Alden loved that little thing, because he knew that it had bubbles inside!

Both little boys taking a break and playing with wooden cars.

 They brought this little dog in to use in some of the photos because it is the Blue Dog company and Alden loved playing with the dog and chasing him around.  Here are a couple videos of Alden playing with the dog.

 In this photo they wanted Alden to roll to his side but he kept trying to escape and roll all the way off the mattress. But they got some good photos anyway.  The one shot below is a photo of one of the photos that they took.

Alden loves playing with water bottles!

 Alden did not really enjoy taking this photo because they wanted it to look like he had been eating something and have his face a little messy but he did not want to have anything on his face.  He kept trying to wipe it off.  It was funny and cute to watch.  I just have a kid who likes to eat his food without making too big a mess and I don't mind that at all! =)

 Alden was done at this point and just waiting for the other little boy to finish.

 Here are some photos that I took of the set that we were at.  It pretty much just had rooms of a house set up but in a way where it was really easy to move everything and change the scene quickly.
