Today is Ella’s half-birthday. I know. Who cares right? Her photography loving mother…who think it’s a tradgedy that Ella’s real birthday is in the middle of winter when it’s never a great time for a photo shoot, not to mention the day after Christmas when life is just plain hectic. SO Ella will be getting her yearly “birthday” shoot each June. As many of you know, I shot Ella once a month for the first year of her life. And while she’s still changing quickly, it’s just not that quickly. So the last time I did a “real” shoot of her was six months ago. It’s crazy how she’s grown since then. This little girl has a mind of her own, and a personality to go with it. She doesn’t speak English as of yet, but she definitely speaks. It’s all in the face… And in true fashion, Ella’s rarely looking at me and there’s a ton of images for you to go through. But this little girl is my whole world (at least until her dad gets home). Happy June birthday my baby girl.
When she reaches for me and my camera with this face it means, “
Mommy, I’m done”.
