Violet

I must start this post by saying I truly love my job. I thank my lucky stars many times a day for the opportunity to be able to do what I love. Part of the love must go to the clients. I have the most awesome clients possible. Getting to know them is the best part about my job hands down

Violet and Mommy show up at 10:0am for an early morning shoot. Mom explains to me how Violet gets her cute button nose from Dad. I am falling head over heels for this angel with the button nose and I am sure at this point it must be why Mom fell madly in love with Dad thus creating Violet and the perfect button nose. You can tell she won Mom as well because Mom can't help but smile brightly like a proud mama bear should. It's fun to see someone interact with their child and to realize I am not the only one who makes goofy faces and changes the pitch of my voice just for my little one to look in my general direction. Mom praises every move and affectionately strokes Violet between each shot. I just love to see mothers appreciate their little miracles.

It always amazes me to see a baby do something before their time. Violet is not even two months old yet she is lifting her head and holding it well. She has wonderful hand movement and does this cute shake like she is conducting an orchestra. By the end of our shoot Violet has left me yet again unable to understand how anyone could categorize a child's progress by age.
