mom and daughter sneak peek | simply angie photography

2011-04-10T18:36:00.003-04:00

This was a great session! As a tradition, this mom and daughter have been getting their pictures taken together every year around their birthdays. How awesome is that! I was super honored that Tracy contacted me to take their photos this year!

So what happens when you take one beautiful mom, an adorable ten year old, amazing weather, throw in a snake sighting, and maybe a photographer doing a crazy-scared-of-snakes-dance....well, you get one FUN session!

It was so, so nice meeting you both! Your love for one another is apparent. I hope these photos bring you many smiles...they sure make me smile big.

One of my absolute favorites....

This one is just for you, Miss C !!! You are too cute!!!!

Okay, now for the sentimental Angie....while taking this photo, looking through my lens, I could see "the look" on Tracy's face...I know that look. It's the look a mother has when she's looking at her child and seeing her baby growing up before her eyes.... and it's remembering holding that tiny baby in your arms....yep, I about cried when I snapped this picture.

I have way to many favorites, but this one is at the top of my list too!

Here's a sneak peek of a wedding I shot recently. For those of you thinking, "hey she said she wasn't photographing weddings anymore", well I'm not, this is one I had booked a LONG time ago. So, to the several people who have contacted me for wedding photography, I promise I wasn't lying when I said I'm no longer doing weddings. It just seems like a good time for me to focus on baby, family, engagement, senior, and maternity photography. Well, enough about that, on to the sneak peek! Hope you enjoy and CONGRATULATIONS to the newlyweds!
