Meet Chloe.

Chloe (5 of 45)

Chloe showed up on my doorstep yesterday ready to rock in a pair of her mom’s heels. Ariela (Chloe’s mom) had brought basically half of Chloe’s closet with her and we had tons of super cute outfits to choose from.

I’ll be honest: boys are tons of fun, but HOLY CRAP girls are more fun to dress! Virtually everything was bright and covered in glitter. Ariela kept joking that when they left my couch would be covered in a layer of glitter (a step up from the layer of cat hair that covers it currently, I assure you).

Chloe is totally supermodel material. She is just gorgeous and so photogenic. Have I ever told you about how much I love redheads?

Chloe (41 of 45)

LOVE. REDHEADS. I have always told anyone who will listen that I am determined to make my children redheads by sheer force of will. On top of that, Chloe’s hair is naturally curly (My hair has been painfully straight my whole life. Tried to perm it when I was a kid and it fell out in about three hours. Yeah. That straight). Is it fair to be jealous of an 8 year old’s hair?

I had a great time working with Chloe. She was so patient with me and up for anything. When I prodded her to change her outfit “just one more time!” for the third time, she happily said sure and bounced off. I wish all my clients were so agreeable!

Happy birthday (on Monday), Chloe!

Meet Andi.

Andi (7 of 16)

Andi is the daughter of Rachel and Andrew. I met Rachel in the seventh grade. At the end of the year her family moved away (to the magical land of Arcadia… the name of which I have never forgotten, for some strange reason).

We got back in touch late last year through Facebook and when her daughter was born in January I started taking pictures of, not just Andi, but her two adorable older brothers Jackson and Ryan, too.

This was a special session just for Andi, though. She is absolutely tiny and adorable. She has this HUGE grin that makes me laugh every time. Also? Those cornflower blue eyes are absolutely unreal. I promise you I haven’t done any weird Photoshop magic here. That’s just what color her eyes are.

Thanks to Rachel for constantly letting me borrow her beautiful kids!

Meet Charlotte.

Charlotte (16 of 24)

This is Charlotte and she is five months old. Her mother and I have known each other since I was 15 and she was 13 and we were both in college (true story!).

Charlotte (30 of 30)

I’ve been Megan’s Official Photographer since we were kids and it’s so much fun to now be taking pictures of Charlotte.

About three months ago we tried to take some pictures of Charlotte and she screamed the whole time. So, of course, I took a picture of her crying her poor brains out so that when she is 16 we can show it to her and say “SEE HOW AWFUL YOU WERE?”

But you were pretty, so we let it slide.
