Easter Photo Shoot


Our daughter has a co-worker who is also a wonderful photographer. Last year he took family photos for us.

Since then, he has wanted to do a photo shoot with Girlie as his subject. Last weekend, we all met up at Woodward Park in Tulsa for Easter photos. It's the perfect place for photos!

Dennis was ok with me bringing my camera along too. The photos you see here are ones that I took. 

Because I kind of like shots like this one.


I should say here that Son brought 4 dresses with him and I took 2. That way Dennis could pick the one(s) he'd like to use.


This is one of the dresses I brought with me and I loved the way it looked on Girlie.


We asked Dennis how he'd like her hair fixed. He didn't care. Girlie asked for 2 piggies. I must confess I was the one that put them in and I certainly didn't do a very good job with the part in her hair!


Her shoes looked great with the dress!


Here's Dennis in action.


Son was the "keeper and carrier" of Girlie's wardrobe. I just had to get this picture!


We walked all over the park. I think Girlie's feet were getting tired.

 


After an hour and 45 minutes, 4 wardrobe changes and almost 1,000 pictures snapped between Dennis and me, I KNOW she was tired.

I did make sure to bring lots of Easter treats with me though. She deserved them too!

  1. She is so adorable! My favorite dress is the one with the full shirt & big bow in the back!

    By the way, I used a 3M Command hanging hook to hang the water can on my front door. I also use them to hang Christmas stockings. They come off easily and don't damage the surface. Neat thing is they're reuseable. Check it out at www.commandstrips.com.

    Smiles,

  12. It's been a year since you introduced your smallest grandson and girlie! Time flies. Girlie is beautiful. I too love the last dress - so feminine. I also love the shot you took of her sitting on the rock in her bare feet.

    Have a wonderful Easter.

  20. Love the dress.

    And the pig tails.

    Love the one where her hand is close to her mouth, and she's looking off into the distance.

    She's a beautiful child.

    You didn't need the photographer. The pics that you took are fabulous!

    Blessings this Easter weekend.

    Sweet dreams.

  21. Happy Easter Sweetie...
    What a beautiful share today. I love them all, and each dress is just adorable and SO precious. I love the pig tails. Nobody said a part has to be perfect. Heck, I used to use my fingernail to part with, and I found it worked quite well. No rules on that one my friend.

    What a trooper to be all over that park, and still have a sweet smile and a perfect little face. I loved the picture of her and her Dad best of all, hand in hand walking, as he carried her little dresses. That one just stole my heart. Absolutely PRICELESS.

    I hope you and your family have a wonderful Easter day. Many hugs sweetie and SO much love, Sherry
