Totally adorable and wholly enthusiastic is how I'd describe this beautiful young lady. Her grandmother is my friend, so I've heard about Lydia since she was born eight years ago, but this was my first chance to meet her. What a delightful time it was, too.

I'm tweaking my backdrop, props, poses, and space. I needed someone to photograph, so I could try each new thing. I'm also trying to use more Photoshop skills, but her pictures were close to perfect SOOC. I did get a lot of practice with eyeglasses, since Lydia, Annie, Alexis, and grandmother all wore them. There are a few shots with a glare, but I've definitely improved. I'm hoping to borrow Lydia (and no doubt Annie and Alexis will come along) again in the future...maybe some outdoor shots when the weather is nicer.
