This session makes my heart sing. I love love love the white dresses, cowboy boots, flower wreaths, and bouncy curls…… I mean seriously?!?
About the Session
It doesn’t get much more fairytale-esk than these! This session was a blast to plan as well as to shoot. These little girls’ mom explained the type of shoot she wanted for her girls and that it had been a long time since they had professional any pictures done. She wanted something magical and girly. Something very special. And, yet her youngest was only three so she also wanted the session to be as fun and as interactive as possible. So we danced, twirled, read a princess book, and jumped for joy.
I took these in bright bright afternoon sun. We decided the best time to take these would be after the youngest one had her nap so she would be fresh for the session. However, this meant I would be battling some harsh light. Sometimes you choose to shoot at less than ideal times to get kids in the best possible mood. (If a child is in an uncooperative mood it may not matter how beautiful your light is … um yea, kids can be such a wildcard). So we decided to go with it and choose a time that would be for the happiest kids as opposed to the nicest light. My strategy for these was to backlight as much as possible and then engage the girls in some fun activities along the way. I love how they turned out …really, that is a complete understatement. My heart swoons over these. So beautiful and whimsical. Love.
