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!!!

They didn’t let just anybody in that club
Took every ounce of heart and sweat and blood
To get to wear those game day jerseys down the hall
Kings of the school man, we’re the boys of fall

And she is their biggest cheerleader!

All of the people around us they say
Can they be that close
Just let me state for the record
We’re giving love in a family dose

Living life is fun and we’ve just begun
To get our share of the world’s delights
high hopes we have for the future
And our goal’s in sight

All the way down from North Carolina, these sweet sisters made my Labor so much fun!!!

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.
