Deacon: One Year

Let me just tell y'all, this little Deacon is the happiest baby EV-ER! I know this because his twin big sisters play on my Madilyn's travel softball team. I have witnessed Deacon spend countless hours, in a day, at a hot ball field with never so much as a whimper....which makes things much easier for his dedicated softball mama and coach dad! He loves people and smiles at anyone and everyone who talks to him. I was honored when Rebecca, his mom, asked me to take his One Year photos. One year is a big deal!

Here is a portion of Deacon's photo shoot...I say "portion" because I literally edited around 85 pictures of this sweet guy. :) Happy ONE YEAR, Deacon! You rock, little man!

 

and it was all yellow...

Let me start out by saying, I love the dress you are about to see. It is vintage and yellow and just simply ah-maze. I saw it in the window of a sweet little store called "Vintage Pearls on 626", as I was riding by one day, and nearly broke my neck trying to get a better look at it. Luckily for me, I know the owner of the shop, and she was so kind as to let me borrow it for this shoot. Thanks again, Kim! If you are local to Rockmart, Vintage Pearls is located at 626 Goodyear Street and you MUST go in to see all the goodness she has!

The model in this session is my BEAUTIFUL niece, Avery. Avery and my oldest daughter are the very best of cousins....more like sisters really. I thank God that he decided those two should be close in age. They will always share a special bond. Annslie was supposed to be in this with Avery, but she just got home from a beach trip with her grandparents, and her face is peeling! :/  So, we will enjoy an Annslie-free shoot this time and admire the gorgeousness that is Avery Laine....oh, and the location is spectacular as well. We shot at Avery's grandparents' home/arena. Love!

Thanks for taking a look!

The necklace Avery is wearing is vintage, and the American flag headband is from Oliver Ann Luke.
