I have two boys, so it’s always fun to play dress-up with pettiskirts and cute dresses. After seeing another photographer’s work of a little girl wearing a brightly colored polka dot dress, I fell in love. My husband and I had just decided to try for a second child, and I thought maybe, if we had a girl, I could photograph her in it. That was about two years ago, and the dress waited patiently in the closet for the right little girl.

Polka dots and giggles- that’s what little girls are made of! This is Vanessa, the daughter of a friend. Sweet and spirited, I knew she’d be the perfect model for the dress.

We played and explored, ran and jumped, and had a great time!

One last picture- to show even color looks good in black and white:

I offer clothing consultations with every session, as well as styled sessions where I recommend and purchase clothing for your child.

I photographed Vanessa as a baby- be the first to find her on the Tiny Moments Photography web site and email me where she appears, and win a $50 gift certificate towards your next session!
