Sometimes I forget that Milledgeville has some really neat little places to shoot if you just take the time to look. That is one of my favorite aspects of on location custom photography. You can shoot in the same areas and make each image look different. It's all about seeing what you can find that day....maybe a hidden wall you didn't see before, the light may be a little different, or even shooting from a different angle. I get all sorts of crazy happy when I hit that part of a session. The part where you just absolutely can't wait to get home and see what you've captured!
Now, let's talk about Livi and Charley. Livi's sweet mama, Alicia, contacted me on FB a few weeks ago about doing a session with Livi. We first had to wait for competition cheerleading to end to find a way to squeeze it into their super busy schedule. We met at Glow Salon downtown and walked around looking for little places to shoot. I had scoped a few earlier in the week when I'd done Christa's session, so I knew where I was heading! I was beyond excited about Livi's session. Livi is at that age where alot of us parents drop the ball when it comes to portrait photography. It gets hard as children reach that "tween" stage. I promise, there are a million of us out there that have these professional portraits up to about age 6 and then don't have another official portrait session until it's time for senior pictures. When you think about that, it's kinda sad. I guess it's kinda where kids reach the point where bribery no longer works and threats are pretty empty. ha ha! That's why I was extremely excited about Livi's session. It's so rewarding for me to see that smile spread across her face when I show her an image we just shot and she sees just how pretty she is! Even better when she says, "Hey mom, that one was really good!!". YAY!! I had a blast with Alicia, Livi, and Charley. Even after Charley got into something pretty smelly down at the Riverwalk! lol We definitely captured some awesome images. Livi is a beautiful girl and once we got her warmed up I'm pretty sure she had a good time, too! The last images we shot out at the airport. When I say we lost light in a hurry...I mean in a HURRY!! Some of these were pretty much shot in the dark! Talk about a challenge! :)
Enjoy this preview of Lovely Livi and her sweet puppy, Charming Charley! :)
