Magic?
I spend my days chasing little ones. Professionally I am a photographer/ graphic designer and more often than not that involves me face down in the grass playing peek-a-boo while an ant crawls up my leg. My “real life” as a Mama of 3 little ones is pretty much the same!
Why keep on doing it? The magic. When I see that sparkle in their eye just before they dart away from me. When I know for sure that I have caught just a tiny piece of what is “them”. Sure, I love making enchanted portraits of the wee ones…that is a whole ‘nother level of magic to capture. But it has to start with them, with that spark of humanity that exists from the first moment that they open their eyes.
This little girl has it in spades, and I had a great time trying to grab a moment of it for her portrait.
Enjoy your sneak peek!
- There definitely is "magic" in her sparkly twinkly eyes. Beautiful photos.
Fairy Bride
This is a “old friend”, I think I have known her since she was about 1.5 years old or so! Her Mama took this picture of her at their farm in KY (my hometown). I got her to email it to me, and I created a one-of-a-kind art portrait for her from it.
Isn’t she lovely?
