Little Sisters

Yesterday I was painting my little sisters' fingernails {not all of them.. I have three more} and since the were sitting in *gorgeous* light, and the needed something to keep them distracted until the polish dried... {we took pictures}

Rachel was first:

She's three. 

and her nickname is "Chubs"  {originally Chubby Monkey} 

Those eyes. Those eyes. And that smile. 

Of course since Rachel got time in front of the camera Natalie wanted some too: 

Natalie is six...

And she has eyelashes that pretty much look fake.....

Plus, she has the most charming little grin that would make you forgive her for *anything*.

Sarah didn't get her nails done... but she got her make-up done :) and there's always nice light in the bathroom....

Sarah is nine. And this is her little smirk after I told her she was blinking :)

This is one of my favorites of her. She's got such stunning looks {oh, and I'm in love with those eyes again}

This girl is just gorgeous.

Maybe my next project will be the other three sisters......

Amy

Because this senior is just so totally amazing, she gets more than one session. ;) Hence, this is *only* a preview. Much more lovelyness coming up. Soon.

{I could write much more on this girl... but I'll save it for another post. <3}

{yesssss. I like this} 

{there were some creepy people from the bar watching us on these ones.. but we're still alive, and we have some sweet pictures! }

{mmmmmhhhm}

{what cuteness!}

Anna

Wow. What can I say about Anna's senior session...... Hahaha, we definitely had a good time. Adventure, good talks, lots of laughs, I'm so glad I've got a friend like Anna!

Great model + sweet light + cool {and a bit creepy} island + super amazing reflector girl {aka. Amy} = A fabulous time and rad pictures!

Anna is such an amazing girl, the kind where you might not see each other for a while, but you can always pick up where you left off :-)

Did I mention that this girl's got the model looks in her back pocket?

mmmmmmm. I like. 

These two are probably my favorites from the shoot.... but it's soo hard to decide....

Love love love this shot. I know I said the other two were my favs but...... 

I wanna see Miracles

"I want to see miracles //see the world change //

Wrestle the angel // for more than a name"

"For more than a feeling // For more than a cause
I'm singing Spirit take me up in arms with You."

"Twenty four voices // With twenty four hearts
With all of my symphonies // In twenty four parts.
  and I'm not copping out. Not copping out. Not copping out."

~Twenty-four, Switchfoot

Thoughtful

I feel..... thoughtful. There's so many things going on in my life and a lot to think about. It's a good kind of thoughtful.
