Shanna & I have been mommy and photog friends for a few years now. Early this year I met her beautiful new daughter, Vivi in this field at sunset for some gorgeous breastfeeding newborn images. This weekend I got to meet with her again at sunrise in the same field to celebrate her (almost) one year birthday.
The confidence that Shanna shows in these images isn't a front. Watching her grow as a woman, mother, photographer and friend has been an absolute blessing.
Happy Birthday, Sweet Viv.
During my last visit to Fort Worth, I had several sessions booked indoors.But I knew better than to try and wrangle a toddler inside, so we met at one of my favorite fields in Hurst. This pretty babe was PERFECTION. Smiled, followed me wherever I needed her to go, let me play with her - all the things that are crucial to amazing images. When parents trust me to just do my thing with their sweet ones, our sessions run SO smoothly, and her parents did just that.
I cannot wait to photograph this beautiful little one again!
(and Fort Worth, Don't forget that I'll be back your way towards the end of the month!)
As a photographer, I am honored to share intimate moments in people's lives that many aren't privy to. But I find it almost necessary to get all up in my client's space, where they are comfortable and raw and truly themselves. I will never tire of shooting in my clients homes. Or baby bellies. Or extra limey salsa. But now we're getting off track.
This beautiful mama and her family are waiting for their baby boy or girl to arrive ANY MINUTE now. So, while you're going over these... maybe send her some birthy vibes or a virtual hug. I think they are very ready to meet their sweet babe.
