warming up | Central Illinois Family Photographer

June 10th, 2010 | Category: portrait

…and I’m not talking about the temps ;)  This little sweet pea needed some time to warm up to me at first at her Sweet & Simple session.  You know, the typical 9 month old-I’m not smiling for a complete stranger-I don’t care if we only have 30 minutes and mom has gone through ridiculous amounts of stress just to make this session happen-I will smile when I’m good & ready- got it? :)  Oh, but watch out - when she finally did start warming up - this little girl has THE sweetest smile & a giggle that you feel all the way down in your toes.

Thanks S family for loving on your baby girl tonight for my camera - I loved capturing the connection between the three of you.  I know it seemed as if her session would never happen, but like I told you before - it is always worth the wait & tonight was absolutely perfect.  Here’s a teeny tiny sneak peek from your session (because there are a bajillion more just like this).
