Abby: 2 years old | Nashville child photographer

If you follow me on Facebook, you already got to see a few photos from Abby’s session earlier.  If you don’t follow me yet, we can easily remedy that– just click on the little “F” icon just above this post, and you’ll be directed to my page.  While you’re at it, I recommend that you hover over the “liked” tab on the page and select “Get notifications” or “See First” to ensure that you see my Facebook posts.  There are some crazy algorithms that keep people from seeing posts lots of times, so that would override the algorithm (=the goal).  If you want to hear about special events, learn if there’s a model call, and see some ridiculously cute images (who doesn’t??), then liking and getting notified about my page is the way to go!

Now that we’ve established that, let me tell you about Abby.  I have been photographing this sweet girl for two years ago.  Her mama and I went to middle and high school together in Knoxville, and then she found me via Facebook for photography once we were both settled in Nashville.  So fun!  While we were walking to our first location Saturday, I happened to notice that a tree had lost quite a few leaves.  I’m not one to pass up a “child in leaves” photo opportunity, so I made sure to get a quick photo. It may be my first of the season, but it definitely won’t be my last.

When I showed up for Abby’s newborn session in 2013, I brought along this white metal basket that I had found at TJ Maxx/Homegoods not long beforehand.   That basket has now been used for all 4 of Abby’s photo sessions, per her mama’s request.  I think it’s fun to see how this sweet little girl has changed over the months and years.  Holding the basket (as you’ll see below) at Saturday’s shoot was entirely her idea, too!  Abby also got in the basket at one point, and her daddy picked her up.  From the sounds of it, they must play a similar game with a laundry basket at home.

I just have to say, I have a special place in my heart for red hair, especially red hair with curls.  DREAMY.  It has always been my favorite, which I think was originally inspired by a crush I had on a little boy in kindergarten.  Sadly, my children were destined for normal, brown hair given my coloring and my husband’s (and that of our parents and grandparents).  Lucky for me, I have several red-headed clients, so I’ll just to have to soak it in and admire it during their sessions!
