This morning, I had the pleasure of photographing Samantha for her one year photos. She is just adorable…no other description necessary, as you can see from the photos. She actually won’t turn one for a little over two weeks, but she is already walking…really well and seemed to enjoy exploring the studio and easily got around. I met Samantha…and her mom this past summer at the soccer camp my granddaughter was at…Becca (mom) nannies a little girl who became fast friends with Jayden and even after soccer ended, we’ve met up occasionally for the girls to play. I was honored to be asked to photograph Samantha for her first year photos…she was fun and VERY easy to photograph! At the end of the session, they stripped her down to enjoy a cupcake, but it was not what you would expect…she only eats Cheerios and would not put any of it in her mouth…though she did have fun playing with it! Dad even tried “dipping” a Cheerios into the frosting and she wouldn’t eat it…it was the funniest and cutest thing…loved watching (and photographing) her with it!
It was also great to have her mom and dad, Becca and RJ there…a really nice couple so have done a wonderful job with their daughter…you can see how much they are enjoying her and that she is thriving and will be a beautiful little girl (and busy) as she continues to grown. I will be anxious to hear about their Christmas…and how she does with the tree…that is the age that can be challenging, especially with the ornaments…but what fun memories for all of them!
I couldn’t resist working on some photos for the blog, especially since I’ll be leaving at the end of the week and will be “off line” until after Christmas…I just couldn’t make them wait that long to see some of the photos! Enjoy…she is a cutie!!
P.S. I have to mention this darling rocking chair they brought over…I offered to “store” it for them, but they didn’t take me up on it! Might have to find one for the studio!!
