On a chilly December morning I met up to capture sweet two year old Saamyah.

On a chilly December morning I met up to capture sweet two year old Saamyah. As is the case with pretty much all of the two-year-olds I photograph, we let Saamyah run the show and simply followed… We explored the gardens near her house together and then came home to play with her bangle collection. This was one of those relaxed at-home sessions that I love – capturing a little one where they are most comfortable and themselves. Thanks for having me photograph your little girl!

I love…
little girl and big doors.
rainbow stripey hat.
bright brown eyes.
giggles.
exploring the colonnades.
morning sun.
saamyah’s impressive bangle collection.
still chubby toddler hands.
the white leather chairs.
sweet kisses for a sweet girl.
