{BABY} "A"... Almost ONE!

This is "Part 1" of this adorable little guy's 1 yr old session! We did a "mini" on-location and his "Part 2" will be the Smash Cake session in a couple days! This fire truck ended up being perfect because his Dad is actually a Fireman and I had NO idea when I suggested this. Although "A" was a bit serious this session we still managed to get a couple smiles in. Also look below at how he sucks his fingers for comfort.... Oh my it was ADORABLE! ;)

KIDS + SUMMER + LEMONADE = FUN!!!

What's better than a Lemonade stand in the summer time?! I'm sure you all remember this as a kid yourself and how much fun it is to think your running a business and going to be $ RICH $, LOL! Here's an example of my "Lemonade Mini's" coming up on July 12th! Contact me at carrietphotography@sbcglobal.net to book your spot! ;)

{FAMILY} "His and Her's + One more = Their's" ;)

A beautiful family today and also alot of fun. These kids were so sweet on their little sister it was adorable! I don't think I've actually photographed a multiple age range like this today but they all were really good and easy to work with. I really enjoyed it. Little baby sister was so serious almost the entire session. Mom & Dad joked that she had left her smile at home, LOL! I think I did manage to get ONE pic of her smiling. You can see that in the last photo posted. Hope you guys enjoy your "peek"! ;)

{BABY Almost TODDLER} "O"... Almost 1 yr old!

*2nd Session from the Smash Cake session we did a week ago*

Oh my Little Miss Olivia melts my heart! I've had the pleasure to photograph this little angel since she was born and I don't know why but she "gets" me everytime. Must be that adorable face, that sweetness about her and that oh so great little personality. I feel like I've seen her grow and change each time I've photographed her but this little session we had was fantastic! She is almost walking, was smiling and "talking" to me the whole time. Her sweet little voice is TDF! Everytime I said "Hi", she said "Hi". Everytime I made any sound at all she would mimick me... it was hilarious! I guess I have forgotten what it's like with a 1yr old as my kids are "grown-up". Thanks Olivia and Ash for a great session and actually a great year. HAPPY 1st BIRTHDAY LIV! ;)

{COMMERCIAL WORK} 1Crown3Tiaras!

So I've been really busy lately and I really can't complain except I just hope my clients are patient and understanding while waiting on their collections. Here's another new designer that contacted me to photograph a dress from her summer line. Introducing 1Crown3Tiaras Boutique! I was once again so happy and honored when asked to work together especially if I really do like the designers style etc. This dress she sent me was fantastic! I love how they can just get an idea of what I would like. I LOVE color and bold designs. My daughter that get's to model them just loves dresses and any dress will do except lately she's been acting like she's a teenager with many opinions on what looks good, what's pretty and what's not, ugh!

Anyhow, I really adore these pictures and the funny thing is that it literally was a 10-15 minute photo session. My little diva was not cooperating at all. I know many think she's so cute, she's so beautiful but what you don't know is that she can be a bit of a "pistol" and a pain in my butt sometimes but I still love her. She pretty much got in "trouble" the entire time for not listening and goofing off but actually the best one's were the one's that just happened! My favorite kinds! Oh and I thought I should mention that she's the one that chose her shoes and her knee high socks to pair with this dress. I orginally thought boots but figured I should let her do something of her own otherwise she could be a nightmare. She said to me she felt like Alice In Wonderland and she was sorta right because with her hair straight with a headband and the tree we chose it kind of panned out that way ;)
