Eeeeee! I love this girl. She’s one of our closest friends’ baby girl, but she’s not really a baby anymore!! Look at those gorgeous curls and super sweet eyes. This time we wandered around the Botanical Gardens for some fall session fun. I can’t believe she let us get through 4 outfits! Check out her 18months, 12 months, 8 months and her 4 months sessions!
From the moment she walked into the studio, we were instant friends! This young lady is full of love, laughter and inquisitiveness! We had such a blast playing dress up and talking about Halloween! I can’t wait to see her again!!!
I want the love, I want the light
I want the beauty on the inside
I want the one that you can’t see
To be the definition of me
More than the face, more than the girl
More than the voice, more than the world
I want the truth that I believe
To be the definition of me

This song reminds me of little C. And her mama. And her brothers. And daddy. Having this family at the studio watching little sister get her photos done was a breath of fresh air! As always, mama was smiles and love for her children. I’ve met the brothers more than once, and talk about sweet, thoughtful and cute…they are! This was the first time I had met dad, and after 30 seconds, I knew where this family’s foundation started! Just as polite and thoughtful as his little boys. It really was a joy working with them all, and seeing just how in love they were with “Baby Siss” as they call her
Brooke, I’ve so enjoyed watching her grow! I just know she will not only be a beautiful little girl, but she will have an amazing heart and soul!!!
These two girls (you may recognize them from last year when they both came in with their sister, Ava Jane) make me laugh so hard. So, we went out to the Botanical Garden on Sunday the 1st, but it was grey and dreary, then rained on us, and then my camera ran out of batteries right on the last shot I needed, so they came back out yesterday to finish up. It was grey and nasty the whole day except for that one little 45 minute section of sun we got last night when we were out there. We finished up the night at Marble Slab getting birthday cake ice cream ON my birthday. In fact, I think I may have turned 31 years old while we were sitting there. What a fantastic night!
This sweetie’s mommy drove all over Athens, Winterville and Watkinsville looking for places for a session in some Bradford Pears. I LOVE the place she found. It was SO windy and cold that day that I was glad I brought my cloak with me to go over the dresses.Kept this girl a little warmer and smiley for just a biiiit longer.
Ok, perhaps she is SLIGHTLY older than 9 months. But seriously, NOT by much. I was so glad when mom called to schedule this….but then, started racking my brain for ways to make it different. Something they hadn’t had done before. See, this family visits us frequently, and I am always up for the challenge of making sure their sessions never look the same. Today, mission accomplished! I can assure you, neither sister has had this type of session before! Now…to rack my brain for some cool 1 year shots! I already have their Christmas photos planned in my head
We started our session outside the studio!
Then,we moved in to the natural light room…
And ended in the studio! You know, always gotta throw up a traditional shot every now and again
This little girl couldn’t have been cuter. I told her that she could go do whatever she wanted and she got this look on her face and shouted “REALLY??” I assured her that I would follow her and ask her to sit in a few special places, but she was in charge the rest of the time. She ran off about 10 feet and looked back and said “Um.. hello? You’re supposed to be following me?”
One of the special places I asked her to sit was in a new field of wildflowers. I was sooooo happy that she decided she would even though there were bees all around her that she was scared of.
