First Step! :: Jacksonville | Atlanta | Fort Lauderdale Children's Photography
Posted on August 18, 2009

I really enjoyed this recent shoot for a number of reasons. First, that it was an opportunity to catch up with an old friend I went to school with (gotta love facebook). She was as genuine and easy to be around as I remembered her, as is the rest of her family, which was great to see.

Second, was that I got to capture an amazing moment. Little Miss A took her first “official” step right in front of my camera! To get that, and mom’s reaction, was awesome.

Another cool thing, we went to a park that sits in front of the house that J’s grandmother lived in when he was growing up. He has a lot of memories of the house and park. I love that they picked a location not just because it was pretty but because it meant something to them.

I like the tear and smile in that last one. The line between crying and laughing is so thin with children.

And last, but NOT least, that hair!

I can’t thank you enough for sharing the gift of your eye with us. You are a true artist regardless of the medium. Spending this time with you felt so familiar, even though it had been years. I can’t wait to see the rest of the shots!
Great Family photography! You really captured the charm and love between this loving family. Picture sharing!
Oh my gosh….she is adorable! I LOVE her red hair. It’s so nice to see pics of old friends and how much they’ve evolved…marriage, kids…I still remember sleepovers at her parents’ house!
