Grace & Lily

I had a fun session with two little princesses last weekend. Well, I should say fun for me, and I think fun for everyone else, besides Lily. Poor little Lily was just getting over cutting teeth and being sick, so she didn't bring her smiles to the session. Instead, she brought a lot of this...



Works perfectly with my tagline, 'capturing Life as it happens,' don't ya think?! Sometimes you can do everything right to prepare for a photo session...get naps, have a snack, allow playtime to get the wiggles out. But in the end, there are things you just can't control. And that's life. Good or bad, we can't control everything. And I say thank God for that! I'm sure if I tried to be in control of everything, things would be an utter mess, ha!

Anyways, despite one under-the-weather little girl, we were able to capture some really sweet moments for mom and dad. Like this...





Really, I felt like I was in a fairytale. The lighting was perfect, the garden was perfect, and of course the girls were perfect!

There were also little kittens to play with. Seriously, doesn't get any sweeter than little girls and kittens...



Although Lily did provoke some laughs as she tried to turn the kitten's head 360 degrees as if she was saying, "Come on kitty, look at me!!"





But I promise, no kittens were harmed in the making of these photos.

And after all that play, another sweet moment as Lily rested in her mommy's arms...



After a breakdown {remember the first photo} and a snack, Lily was a bit more chipper. And I finally got a smile...



Even if it was solicited from dad doing bunny ears and who knows what else behind my back, ha!

Thanks for sharing your precious girls with me Dwayne and Julie! I'll have the complete gallery available for viewing shortly!
