Miss Marvelous, A Milestone Session
Milestones Aren’t Just for Babies…
Milestone Sessions aren’t just for babies or the first year or two of life. They can capture your child at any stage and at any age. Milestones are fun sessions where I get to capture personality, skills, and activities that are important at that moment in life.
This marvelous milestone client just turned 4 years old. She is lively and expressive and curious. She is 100% extrovert. She is bossy and sweet and cares for others. Her mom just wanted to capture her child being happy and healthy, but I wanted to capture everything about where she is RIGHT NOW. And right now, this little girl loves music. She loves to dance. She loves LEGOs and building and taking things apart. She loves exploring, and she has, of course a million questions!
So, we danced (in all different outfits, of course). We twirled, because what little girl doesn’t love to twirl? And since she’s a dare devil, we also *might* have even twirled on a chair. Don’t worry, her mom and I kept her perfectly safe, I promise.
When she got a mischievous look in her eye….I tossed a lemons at her that matched her outfit. And of course caught the ensuing hilarity of a four-year-old enjoying a Battle of Lemons
…And LEGOs Are for Everyone
And I saved the best for last… a big bin of LEGO for our LEGO-loving girl! She settled right down to build with a purpose and focus that you don’t often find in 4-year-olds. And when she was finished building, she held up her creation for me, and I could not have been more delighted with her creativity… it was a camera! She then proceded to wrap up our session by taking pictures of ME on theLEGO camera she built during her session.
When Life Gives You Lemonade…
These moments, these personalities, this stages all deserve to be recorded, and I am so grateful that that’s what I get to do every day. As a mom, these are the images I want of my kids, and what a blessing to be able to create them for other Mamas. Each change deserves to be documented and enjoyed for years to come. Who knows, one day when she’s a dancer or an engineer, we’ll look back at these pictures and say, it was there all along!
I hope this marvelous mini is a repeat milestone offender in my studio for many years to come!
