My favourite model was due for her photos again and I couldn't wait. Skye is my adorable god-daughter who will be 4 very soon..... already!!! We set out one afternoon for some fun in the park, playing dress ups and having some photos taken. We even had happy, funny Aunty Laina along to help in the giggle department. It was all a good idea in theory but from the start, we knew it wasn't going to be easy. Firstly, Skye hadn't had a sleep that day but had been to swimming in the morning so the chances of a tantrum were looking to be high as she was most likely exhausted. Then, on our way to the location, we got stuck in peak hour afternoon traffic and were starting much later than I'd hoped. Then, once we walked for ages to where I wanted to set up (because silly Kylie parked too far away from the entrance but wasn't getting back into the traffic to get about 100m up the road) only to find the place was swarming with mossies and no one had any repellant!!
Honestly though, even after that clumsy start to our shoot, I managed to get some fantastic shots that I absolutely love, some that didn't work at all but all in all, Skye was a tremendous subject with no whinging and whining and had a great time having her photos done!!! (She told her mum first thing in the morning). And top job to mum Shelley who went across the road to the servo and got the Rid.... top job indeed :)
I just adore this little red chair and had this idea for a shot and this excelled everything I wanted. It's exactly how I wanted it but she added her own flavour and totally owned this shot. We might just have a little model on our hands here!!!!
This is Shelley's favourite I think and in my top 3 for sure..... those big, sparkley, brown eyes just pulls at the heart strings!!!!!! :):):)
This is princess Skye wearing her flower girl dress for what will most likely be the last time.. but she definitely enjoyed being a princess :)
Little Miss giving us some of her best Saturday morning dance moves!!
Can anyone say poser???!!!
I love this cheeky shot and she really liked the lanterns :)
Again, those eyes!! She was such a good sport, we gave her this lollypop for a quick series of photos and then took it off her. She didn't even bat an eyelid which was totally unexpected for the 3 year old but she was really ok with it and then after dinner (we got to hang out together for the night too....*insert smiley face*) she remembered and asked for it but I gave her one that was about 1/15 the size and she was more than happy with it and gobbled it down. I was so surprised, she was just such a good girl and fully toilet trained which was an absolute blessing!! hehehe :)
Thanks Shelley and thanks Skye and special thanks to Aunty Laina. It was a super afternoon and even though the mossies won in the end, we'll do it all again soon!!!
