Rebekeh HAS to be one of the spunkiest and most adorable 5 year olds I have ever met! This girl knows how to work the camera and is just an absolute sweetheart to be around.

Her mommy, Sheridan, was pretty amazing as well. Not only did Sheridan let me choose Rebekeh’s entire outfit, but she gave me freedom to do whatever I wanted. She stood quietly in the distance-holding our props- letting me indulge in silly jokes and skipping around the park with Rebekeh. There were no forced smiles or “cheese”‘s here. I think this contributed to one of the most natural-looking child sessions I have ever done!

I am obviously funny. Oh, and that pose on the right? Totally her own.

Can we say heartbreaker?

I didn’t give her this pose either! SASSY

We looked high and low for puddles. When I don’t want rain, it rains. When I want rain  for a puddle-jumping shoot… and there is a 70% chance of rain. Guess what? No rain. This is the best puddle we could find… soggy grass.

Love!

The best thing to ever happen during a shoot….Even if the guy was a tad creepy. I think it’s a requirement for ice cream men in Florida.. But anyway-he was nice enough to let us get a few shots.

Thank you Rebekeh for being soo good! I’m glad we’re friends and Sheridan-you’re an awesome mommy!
