Girls are Great

As a child I had a pair of overalls with that embroidered on the pocket, don't know why or where they came from, but they were my favorite pants. Long after I'd outgrown them, my mom cut the legs off to make them shorts, so I could squeeze another year out of them.. and by the time they retired they were so threadbare you could barely read the writing... but I knew it was there!

I don't know if that's where the seed was planted or if I was just born a "girl person," like how some people are cat people and some people prefer dogs.. but I have always had a soft spot for girls. Of course, it helps to have the three cutest girls in the world living in my house, but that's just an afterthought really. ;)

Way too much dialogue already.. but I could not stop thinking while shooting then editing this session how much fun I had, and how much I adore little girls.. from the infants to the teens.. they are just my absolute cup of tea. (If I drank tea that is... but "cup of diet coke" doesn't really have the same ring to it.)

Anyway, without further ado.. the most fun I have had at a session in a long time. Four girls, aged 8 weeks to 13yrs... each one her own little personality.. each one my new best friend! ;)











And finally, my absolute favorite (aside from the one I already shared, linked here).. this was one of those shots you just can't plan any better. I had the baby set up for the dramatic lighting by her window in this picture perfect nursery when big sister decided she had been out of the limelight for too long and popped in to "make sure the baby's smiling for Miss Ann." Just perfection, the best possible sibling shot I could imagine at these ages...
