Daddy’s Girl. Franklin TN Child Photographer.
Is she really two years old? Oh my, I cannot believe how fast my baby is growing! She is pretty serious in front of the camera, except when Daddy is around, then she just can’t help herself. Most everyone refers to her as a “spitfire”, she is much more adventurous then her petite frame indicates, and have I mentioned how she adores her daddy? His 12 hour days away from her mean that she rarely sees him before bed time during the week, making their morning time together, “their time”, and if I dare intrude, she cuts her eyes at me and will rarely speak to me, as if to say, “Back off, mommy. I will see you in a bit. Right now, its just me and my dad.” She only has a dozen or so words, but manages to communicate just fine. She loves to dance, especially to Britney Spears and French DJ Martin Solveig (you tube his video “Hello” featuring Dragonette and all will become clear.), and she plays a mean game of hide and seek. I couldn’t ask for a more adorable daughter and must stop writing now so that I can stop crying. This is our fourth attempt at a photo shoot and finally decided that it was best to enlist her daddy assistance. Happy belated birthday, my sweet and gentle beauty…well, she is always beautiful, but that sweet and gentle part is bound to come with age 
. Thank you for choosing me. I love you.

I can’t believe she is really two. TWO. She is certainly her daddy’s girl. Big. Happy. Sigh. Much, much more to come.

I could sit and stare at these images for days. It helps that they include two of my most favorites! My very best friend lives in North Carolina and we are so lucky to have gotten to of seen them so much over the past few months as my business is growing in leaps and bounds in North Carolina, as well as while in town for all these new babies that my friends and family are having! I actually did a family session for C & E with J in April, but I realized that we spent so much time on J and getting some shots with J and his daddy, that we didn’t have very much (if anything!) of J with his mommy! We headed out to the park one evening after dinner and I couldn’t resist the delicious sun flare that was heading down the horizon, so I insisted that C & J sit for an impromput session with me–and I am so glad that they did!
Love you both so very much!
For all of my North Carolina fans, I am currently planning my next travel dates for November 17-28th. I will be offering full sessions and mini sessions, and be willing to travel between the Raleigh-Durham areas and the coast. Its going to be the perfect time of year for those family holiday cards!
