I’ve been photographing Hanna since she was about 2 weeks old.  I usually know with Hanna that I am going to have to keep her really entertained and shoot fast!  Hanna loves birds, so on this shoot her stuffed parrot was able to keep her pretty entertained while I got the photos I wanted.  I love all the expressions she has, even the mad ones! Each photo has so much personality, not the typical folded hands in lap, looking at camera and smiling perfectly…no, no… there is definitely life in these photos! When she was 2 we did a scene with her and a bunch of apples (posted one of these below)…it worked out so well, kept her busy -while she ate the apples, I took photos 🙂 This girl really loves watermelon, pretty much could live off of it, so this time I tried it with a watermelon slice…love it! I think I may always have to incorporate food! 😉

Here’s her parrot that kept her entertained!

And here was the “apple shoot” from a few years back!
