Well it is that time of year again! Dance recitals…….. every young girls dream to be on the stage coming true.

This year happens to be the first time my little one will be following in her older sister’s footsteps and performing on stage.

I am certain there will be tears in my eyes as I see my youngest on stage just as there was for my oldest daughter each and every time she performed. It never gets old. And you never can check those emotions at the door. There is something so special and touching about seeing your children showing off their independence, confidence and lets not forget those adorable little costumes!

Speaking of costumes….. we picked her very first dance recital costume this past week. So of course being a mom with all her own studio equipment I had to take the opportunity to get some pictures for the memory book! Here is some we captured today. Isn’t she the most adorable thing ever? Well yes I am a bit biased because she is mine, but I am ok with that! :)

Sunday I had the pleasure of meeting the “G” Family. These children are so adorable.

Doesn’t she have the cutest dimples??

I had a great time capturing memories for you!

Thought I would share a few pics from this session. We had to do the outdoor portion quickly due to losing the sun.
I think my outdoor sessions will be few and far between until spring unless we get some unseasonably warmer weather.

Hard to believe how time flies! My little Princess will be 3 years old next weekend.

Today we had fun playing in the studio.

I picked up this cute little dress at a craft show last weekend. I only wish a full view shot of the dress was worthy to show you……. but as with most 3years olds……. holding still is very rare and any time they stand the twirl and move…..

Next weekend I will share some party pics…….

Tonight was a foggy sunset and it was neat to see……… unfortunately I could not grab pics of it until it was almost done.

Here is a quick snap of my little one twirling in the fog. I cant wait for the next time so I can go out and use a bit more cooperative subject.

Today my princess and I had some play time in the studio. She loves to try on all the pretty skirts I have for props and actually had a good time! I think this was the first studio session I had with her that didnt end in tears!

Let me tell you as all parents know……….. getting your own child to do anything when you want them to is next to impossible. For some reason other peoples children always listen better.
And as all photographers know……………. your toughest subjects are your own kids!

So today was a joy and I hope next time we can experiment with more backgrounds. Here are just a few from today’s play session.

Thought I would share a few pics of my sweet little 2-1/2 year old. Seriously the toughest people to photograph are your own children. They tend to run screaming away from you when the camera is in your hand. I have to bribe her with M&M’s now to get her to sit for me! lol

Today I had the pleasure of photographying this sweet family! Dont they look perfect in that color!

Here is a quick sneak peek from the session…….
The M family sneak peek!

I had the pleasure of spending an hour with these handsome little men.  S & E showed off some golf skills for me. 

Then we settled in for a few more posed pictures.  This one is a favorite of mine.  I just love how they look so sweet and their doggy settled in for pics like a pro!

The rest of their session proofs are uploading to their album for then to see now…….
