2 Sisters and their Cousin!

I have been taking photos of this extended family for about 4 years. I first starting photos of Amanda when she was just 3 months old and as the family has grown I have had the joy of capturing all off them. I met Amanda and her cousins, Sam & Jaylynn, this sunny August day. (It also happened to be my birthday.) I was meeting them so that Jaylynn could have her first photo shoot and to capture some photos of the sisters together too!
Sam arrived first and we took some of just her while we waited. I was able to capture some great shots of her. I was so glad because her second birthday shoot we were not as lucky.
 



 
When Amanda and Jaylynn arrived we started with some shots of the three girls together. Making sure to capture some of the sisters as well as Jay by herself.
 



 
Although she was not a smiley baby this day, I am pleased with the shots that I was
able to capture of her. Solomon babies are better then screaming ones. 



 
I thought a little "picnic" in the park would be fun! The girls had a blast with this idea.
 







To end the shoot I was able to get a few smiles from Jay once we took her into the playground!
 
Since this shoot is almost a year old... I hope to be capturing them all again soon.

Charlotte First Birthday Shoot Part 2!

Again I had a shoot that I just could not narrow down my favorites.
So, I split into two post as to not overwhelm you with a large post.
We shot at Wolffe Park in between little spurts of rain.
 
 
 These are my favorites in the red tutu. The image below was the only one
 that I was able to capture of her sitting inside the frame. As soon as she realized
she was inside the frame she panicked a little and did not want to sit in it any more.
But for only getting one shot I LOVE it!
 

We then ventured down to the stream. This was mom's idea and I am glad that we headed
down there because she loves water and we were able to get some cute photos.
 
 


We finished a cake smash, of course. I bought a large piece of cake
 at the store and brought it a long. We did not let her eat too much of the cake
because she has reaction to dairy. But she did make a mess with the little bit
 that we allowed her to eat!
 
I look forward to getting to shoot Charlotte again soon.
 Make sure you check back because there is a Halloween Shoot
coming soon with Charlotte and her mommy and daddy!
