If I’m being honest, I’ve avoided the blog lately. Not because I don’t have pictures/sessions to share, but I’m just bored with the whole idea of “look at this cute family that I photographed yesterday!” It’s boring and obnoxious - right??! Not the families of course, but there is so much more to them than, just the same old boring blog lines; “they were soooo cute,” “does it get any cuter,” “look at these eyes.” I mean seriously, I’ve grown a serious aversion to the word cute. And, since everyone is so cotton-pickin’ cute, what am I suppose to do??? So, I’ve been struggling with not wanting to have the same old stupid blog that everyone else does & trying to figure out what I do want to have. I have a couple of ideas, but nothing concrete yet. They are the kind of ideas that seem brilliant at midnight, but first thing in the morning you wonder what was so smart about that idea last night, because that just won’t do. I’m close, but still brainstorming with myself.
So, did you know “cunning” is an adjective for the above mentioned word?? Well, I don’t think of cunning when I think of baby Mollie . . . but she is pretty damn cute. Sorry for the expletive, but geez – that [cute] word is just annoying me & I need something to spice it up;o) We did have fun yesterday romping around Carlton Woods finding the best light everywhere we went. No reflectors needed; creamy marble floor does a perfectly honorable job . . . and this perfectly lit session was just what I needed to brighten my mood this week. I know her family could use some bright light this week too. I’ll definitely be back with more of her & the last few sessions which haven’t been showcased because of their ”cuteness” aka “boringness” (NOT the people – just the adjectives that come to mind!! They just deserve better than a Thesaurus abused post - I’ll get there.)
Oh, and I love this picture because of the beautiful light #1, but also because she was talking to me with these eyes (is that selfish? don’t care.) Because, 99% of this session her eyes and her flirts belonged to her mommy. As it should be, and, who could blame her . . . I think her mom is one solid lady. Mollie gave me a couple of glances & even a few smiles, but this was a glance we exchanged & I know exactly what she was thinking right here. So, I like this one:o) We did good Paige! Can’t wait for you to see them.
