And here's another one that seems to be growing up a bit too fast :-(. If you hang out with me on Facebook, you would have seen the one that makes me want to stand up and sing the National Anthem ;-).
You know that feeling you get when you open your eyes one day and look at your child and think, "Oh my gosh, you're growing too fast!"? Well...I get that feeling when I look at my clients' children, too. Yes, this little guy is growing way too fast!
She had mentioned red, white, blue, and sparklers for her session. The day of, I happened upon the PERFECT quilt at an antique store. But the quilt and the sparklers aside, it was their comfort and connection as a family that made this session for me. Her son is such a gentleman. Her oldest daughter is full of life. And that baby girl is full throttle, no fear, she believes she can do anything, LOL! (I don't normally let kids climb on ladders at my session...they found it and there was NO stopping that little one!)
And they just take it all in stride. You can see the pride in mom's face when looking at what she and her husband have created together. You can see how much her husband loves them all. *That's* the kind of thing that makes me grin from ear to ear whenever I'm proofing a session: when you can actually SEE love.
I said to her, "What do you think about doing your entire session in a parking garage?" She said, "Awesome!" And the rest was Pinkle Toes history...
P.S. Last time, that little guy was elsewhere ;-).
P.P.S. LOVE her sense of style and that awesome hair color! Meg...you pulled everything together beautifully!
