The 'T' Girls

My new neighbor, Jackie, literally has her hands full right now with daughters ages 21 months and just 3 months of age. The girls are adorable, and I love their expressions...almost-two year olds are so sweet, fun, curious and full of energy (and esp. cute when they are not your own!) One thing I love about photographing kids in general, especially these ages, is that they don't hide what they are feeling...it is all out there and they don't hold back or pretend to be happy when they're not. Big sister's expressions were so cute I couldn't pick just a couple to share...so here are a bunch from our little session this morning. Thanks for a fun time!

just relaxin'

we weren't quite sure if a 3 month old can be teething already, 
but this is what she looked like most of the morning...

this was right before she pushed herself over the pillow~ 
Jackie calls her bigger-faster-stronger! 
because this girl can already move ;-)

    What fun! The second to last is such a sweet look and I like the wet fist on the last.

Giving Back~ Organizations supported by Circle of Life Photography

In giving back, Circle of Life Photography's main goal is to help those experiencing extreme poverty and nourishing them with food, shelter and spiritual guidance. Education is a big part of helping people learn how to help themselves and change the downward spiral of poverty for a better future for themselves and their children. Locally, a more tangible way of giving back is through using my photography gifts to serve others who are experiencing crisis (see NILMDTS and Pillows of Love.)

Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep Foundation (NILMDTS) gently provides a helping hand and a healing heart for families overcome by the grief and pain of the death of their newborn or infant. Offering gentle and beautiful photography services in a compassionate and sensitive manner is the heart of this organization. The soft, gentle heirloom photographs of these beautiful babies are an important part of the healing process. They allow families to honor and cherish their babies, and share the spirits of their lives. I am an active NILMDTS volunteer photographer for Penn State Milton S. Hershey Medical Center and Lancaster Women & Babies Hospital.
