The Other 2/3's

I mentioned in my previous post that there were 3 little girls I photographed Saturday at the Arboretum. Well, here is the remaining 2/3's of the group! These 3 girls are cousins. Coincidentally, both older girls have the same exact birthday! Not planned - not scheduled c-sections or anything- just happened that way. What are the odds of that? Anyway, the first cutie below is also in my little boy's Mothers-Day-Out class, and her baby sister is just a few months older than my baby Luke.

I believe that some of the best shots don't involve cheezy, big, toothy grins. Ones like this below really stand out to me. I think it is my favorite of her.

Sweet little sisterly love...

Little one here (7 months, I think?) was such a trooper that day. I am pretty sure my 4 month old wouldn't have tolerated what she did. Big gummy grins for Mommy!

This one is gorgeous in both color and this tone below, which I call "Chocolate". I like how she is peeking through the petals with the backlight on her hair.

She isn't quite sitting up by herself yet, so we had to "stage" it a bit. Aren't these little smocked dresses and bows adorable? Love it and so perfect for springtime and Easter, too.

Again - capturing an almost 3 year old doing what they do...

Mom to child: "Hey, what are you...? Hey, no, you can't pick the... " (sigh). "Oh well!" Haha. I know she wasn't the first and won't be the last to take a souvenir home from the Arboretum! Ooops!

I am going to do one more post following this one with some candids of all 3 girls. Looking forward to sharing all of the beautiful images with you!
