Keep in mind that a portrait session doesn’t have to be a perfectly dressed, perfectly posed child! We can always incorporate activities that are special to your family – be it cooking, reading, building blocks, craft time, tickle time, having a picnic, playing in the water, ANYTHING! Here, Emily dressed herself to cook blueberry muffins – her favorite. She’s wearing a Matilda Jane dress – one of our favorites right now, has just lost her first tooth the night before, has an apron that was a gift from a dear friend, the Viking hat has a special meaning, and every image is a sweet look that just breaks my heart because I don’t want her to grow up too fast. These are the moments I want to remember in 20 – 30 years. I will hang this as a 10×20 storyboard in a white, wooden, distressed frame – I will treasure it forever.
