When Marni called and talked to me about the idea of a family session straight out of the '50's, I didn't hesitate. This was somewhat out of the box for me, at least in terms of processing, but I felt it was appropriate for these images and the look we were going for. Their Christmas cards were so darling, and I loved the vibe from that evening!
I've claimed for years now that I was meant to live in the 1950's... shooting this era made me believe it even more!

























They are smitten.
(Who wouldn't be?)

Look at your sweet spooky babes! I adore these pics, especially those two of Ms. Molly! She is hilarious!

Right in the middle of her forehead.
And when she was good, she was very, very good.
And when she was bad, she was horrid.
:) oh you..... clever!
Be still my heart!
(10.19.11 @ 02:29 PM)I've always liked that little poem, but when applied to your darling little M, I love it even more!! What a sweet, sassy little girl you have. :)
(10.19.11 @ 03:32 PM)Wow, Little Cutie has gotten her teeth!
Wow, Little Cutie has gotten her teeth!
Oh my word- so, so cute. But what has happened to her!?! She is too big! I'm missing you guys.
(10.20.11 @ 01:27 AM)Oh I feel your pain. Brynn was/is just like that. But I LOVE this photo. And the poem. Hang in there mama. She'll likely grow out of this craziness. ;)
