Adoption is beautiful!

I have a love affair with adoptions. I know anyone who watches this blog knows, but it’s obvious. It’s just so amazing. These girls came all the way from Kazakhstan! Miss T. and Miss L. had a blast with me yesterday at the State Botanical Gardens here in Athens. They picked a Fairy Tale session and had a great time prancing around in princess dresses. Miss T. didn’t nap on the way up from Atlanta and got quite tired, but was still ever patient with me as long as I made funny noises. I am SO in love with the Miss T. ‘swoon’ photo and Miss L. just smiled the whole time!

The cute!

Oh, let me tell you how I loved these kids. The older sister was SO patient. While her younger sister was busy being three and the baby was busy being one, she managed to sit still, calm them both, listen to my directions, be careful with her special dress and keep her hair out of her face. It’s too bad she lives out of state, because I’d so be using her for more.

Sunset at the State Botanical Gardens here in Athens is stunning, and makes the Fairy Tale sessions just magical. These girls had a blast running around in my princess gowns.

Miss L.

Can I tell you how much I love this girl? Seriously, she gives me something stunning every single time. Plus, she’s patient with me. Poor thing couldn’t breathe well or lift her arms in one dress that was two sizes too small for her, but instead of complaining about it, she giggled about it!

Miss E

I got to shoot one of my favorite clients Saturday morning. I needed to get some photos of new dresses for a promo I’m doing, so I decided to borrow Miss. E. for some. Love this kid! Last time I saw her, she wasn’t talking much at all, but this time she sure is!

The smartest two year old

No, really. She’s been talking in full sentences for a year. This child was way too smart to distract, so I spent a lot of my time repeating my requests.

Real Life Fairies, part 2

More from this wonderful shoot. I think the part neither of us will forget is the field-trip that coincided with our trip that day. One of the teachers even incorporated her in the tour, passing us with an exclamation of “Oh, hello, Blue Fairy! Look children, it’s a blue fairy!”

Real Life Fairies

This is her wedding dress! She just got married last week! Can you believe she consented to put it all on again and tromp around the Botanical Gardens with me this morning? I love it. We had so much fun. Just a peek while I’m editing.
