Accordion Christmas card for Arkansas client

I traveled to Lake Village, Arkansas in September to photograph these darling children for a unique Christmas card. The family farms cotton there, so Mom decided to get some portraits of the kids in the cotton fields to show family and friends in Arkansas, but in their home state of Ohio (GO BUCKS!), as well. Lake Village is a farming community, nestled in the south eastern corner of Arkansas and that area is known as the Delta. You can’t go anywhere around there without seeing the familiar “John Deer” green on just about everything. Mom ordered the overalls online and we used antique John Deer tractors for the kids to sit on. They were completely mesmerized by the cotton picking equipment picking cotton on both sides of us during our photo session. I can say, without a doubt, this was a photo experience that I won’t soon forget. Thank you to everyone for excepting an outsider like me into your friendly and humble community!
