I LOVE capturing people in action especially the little ones.
so when I saw her in the formal puffy dress with the black shoes and white tights on, I was like “ok . . . is she going to move? and how?”
Starting out her being shy or maybe overwhelmed by my camera a little bit, she stood up showing her back. I found the delicate line of her shoulder was absolutely adorable, then she turns around, and I was enchanted by her – totally.
The look, the way she put her little hands together, and putting her toe up came so naturally. It was all her with those moves, then I realized that she has a real princess in her, not just her parents putting the dress on her. Well, the dimples win over everything.
Instead of me having her running as many children tend to do, she started dancing instead! The Pasadena City Hall provides the perfect backdrop for this little princess!
Let’s capture her being the apple of her parents’ eyes . . .
It was such a magical time for me. What a beautiful family, the adorable girl with the gorgeous Pasadena city hall background . . . match perfectly. Thank you for letting me be there to capture you.
till next time,
