Today marks ONE YEAR since I witnessed and documented this beautiful child’s entrance in to this world of ours. The joy that she has brought to our family is immeasurable. She arrived a little over a month after we nearly lost my dad (her Papa). 2011 was filled with Miracles for my family, and she was one of them. ♡
Last week, my sister met me at one of my favorite fall locations for her First Year Photo Session in her brand new Matilda Jane duds. She’s been an amazing little girl to photograph over these last 365 days. I’m guessing the quantity of photo sessions will slim down now that she’s one, but I’m praying that she’ll never tire of being photographed. 🙂 Enjoy these images and read all the way to the bottom for the BIG announcement that I’ve been talking about on Facebook this week!
And now for the Super Duper Fun (i.e. BIG) Announcment! I’m thinking that I’m going to disappoint some people, mainly my mom and sister because my announcement has nothing to do with me expecting my own bambino. So sorry!
Last year, I hosted a Newborn Session Contest in honor of my niece’s birth (which may just happen at the beginning of 2013…hint, hint). I wanted to do something fun to celebrate her 1st birthday this year…and it took me a bit to figure it out…but here’s what’s going down. My little ‘ol Facebook page is very close to 3,000 fans…16 fans away as I’m writing this. When that number is reached, a 3,000 Fan Birthday Bash Giveaway will be unleashed. I am so excited about the vendors that have donated their work so very, very graciously to the giveaway! They are some of my favorite vendors that you see me use in my work over and over again. There’s a little bit for everyone in the giveaway. Would you like me to name a few of the vendors? OK…I will!
