Too Fast.

When she was thinking about it, the big girl move of walking down the step instead of scooting, I was there to cheer her on. To watch in anticipation as she thought about it, moved away, came closer to the edge, and then backed away again.

I might have said, "Sweetie, you can do it...!"

But not until she did it, did I realize how, really, I didn't mean it at all.

It's going too fast.

Questions & Answers to Mini Easter Sessions

I just wanted to address questions that have come up about the Easter Sessions that you might have been wondering, too.

1. No dressing up required. If you would rather be casual and not make it about Easter - that is great, too!

2. My promo includes families, too. Or a combo of some family some children. Or pets. Anything is possible! :)

3. I do not do a lot of posing. My style is candid, but what I do to get the shots (that you will love) is:

1. Present a handful of flowers to a sweet girl and capture her reaction.

2. Let your children chase and hold daffodil colored balloons.

3. Lay your children on a quilt and ask them for their most silly faces.

4. Get those sweet baby chicks, ducks, and goats snuggling and chirping with your family. I guarantee super sweetness.

5. Make a fool of myself to get great smiles ... Don't judge me.

However, if you DO want a certain look or pose, please let me know, as I am here to make you happy and will do whatever that takes (Usually. I say usually because I have had some crazy requests. :)
