I couldn’t pick just a couple of these to include in my last post of favorites, there are just too many that I love, so this one gets its own post.  A friend of mine asked me if I would take some pictures of her and her two daughters.  She said it had been years since they have done any kind of professional pictures together.  Of course I was excited to do it and we started tossing around ideas of where to go.  Then one day I got a text from her that said “I know the perfect place!”  There is a park nearby that has beautiful views all the way to the ocean.  She goes there sometimes to pray during quiet time so the location had a special meaning.  I love going to new locations for pictures since it gives me a new challenge and a new look to my pictures.

Honestly, if you ask me, this doesn’t look like a mom with her two daughters…they look like 3 sisters!

Brandy wanted some pictures to reflect what they are doing at this time in life and a typical night a home looks something like this.

Brandy can always be found working on her computer while Nadia works on her dancing and J’Lyn is rocking out to her music.

Nadia is an incredibly talented dancer and she showed me just a few of her moves

J’Lyn let loose and showed me her spunky side while listening to her favorite tunes

Brandy has done a wonderful job raising such beautiful girls

What was especially fun for me was, how excited the girls were about taking pictures, and they had fun with it.  I am so used to taking pictures of families with really young kids and it is definitely more of a challenge since they may not want to sit still, or look at the camera let alone smile.  I love doing it, it just takes a lot more patience and energy.  These girls made it so easy.
