Mallory, her Mom and Grandma were awesome to work with over the weekend. I don't believe I had ever met a three year old with such an extensive vocabulary. It was amazing. Mom says that she never stops talking! When she looked at a flower she would say, "It's beautiful" slowly. Oh, to be so sweet and all brand new! Our session was full of lots of fun shots. What a joy to work with Mallory!

Here, I was encouraging Mallory to have her hands 'hug' her feet. She is thinking really hard about it. I love her with this background.

I was talking about all of the rain coming down. So much rain everywhere.....and she looked around and said, "Where?" Sweet.

Mallory is hugging the little blue bird I gave her to hold.

Some texture was added to this image to give some depth and create an artsy feel.

Clayton just seemed too small to be walking around. Mom said he started before he was even 9 months old! Here he is about 10 1/2 months. I know, right?

Mom set him down at this spot by the wagon and I was surprised at how long he stood there. I think he knew he was supposed to stay where Mom put him. After a few minutes, maybe less, he picked up his little feet and gingerly moved away from the wagon.

Clayton didn't lack many smiles with a game of pic-a-boo.

He LOVED this white wicker chair........and went back to it over and over.

More big smiles for his funny family!
