Since I knew we&#8217;d have newborn portraits coming up in just two short months and my deal with Ryan is one family session a year (I&#8217;ve yet to meet a dad who loves family portrait day!) I opted to let B have 90% of the spotlight all to herself before baby sister came along. And I needed a few headshots too so we did a &#8216;just the girls&#8217; session and I&#8217;m so glad we did. You pretty much can&#8217;t squeeze more personality into this little girl and giving her the chance to let that shine on camera is a blast (plus how fun are these images going to be to show her and\/or recreate when she&#8217;s older!).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20690\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0009.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"950\" height=\"698\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0009.jpg 950w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0009-300x220.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0009-768x564.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>People ask me often about photographing my own family and are often shocked to hear that I do not do our own family portraits (heck no)! Even just doing Baby O&#8217;s monthly photos is a hot mess. Photographing my own kids (on anything other than my cell phone) has never been fun for me. I prefer to sit back, relax (hahaha) and just be mom on photo day (and all you mommas know that is NOT relaxing). BUT after the fact, waiting&#8230; getting to be surprised by the unveiling and seeing my kiddos true personalities shine is beyond fantastic.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20689\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0008.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"950\" height=\"905\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0008.jpg 950w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0008-300x286.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0008-768x732.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20688\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0007.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"950\" height=\"685\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0007.jpg 950w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0007-300x216.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0007-768x554.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20686\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0005.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"950\" height=\"698\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0005.jpg 950w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0005-300x220.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0005-768x564.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20691\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0010.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"950\" height=\"845\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0010.jpg 950w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0010-300x267.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0010-768x683.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20687\" src=\"http:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0006.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"950\" height=\"1114\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0006.jpg 950w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0006-256x300.jpg 256w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0006-768x901.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blog.sjanephotography.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/31-20682-post\/2018-07-31_0006-873x1024.jpg 873w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 706px) 89vw, (max-width: 767px) 82vw, 740px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Thanks to Natalie for yet another fun session together.
