This beauty celebrates her 16th birthday today! It’s quite something to realize that I have had the honor and pure delight of photographing her since she was born! Mason has graced this blog many times over the years! I remember chasing her around while she crawled back and forth across her living room floor, setting up fun vignettes with her rocking chair and favorite toys, making my now office into a studio with colorful backdrops and balloons, finding lavender lilac bushes that matched her dress, dancing in a field of wet grass…and now we search for certain colors and walls for specific vibes and she teaches me a thing or two about posing and style trends. We get together at least once a year – sometimes twice if we’re lucky or if we have a certain idea requiring a particular season! – for a portrait session. She’s always ready with multiple outfits and ideas on what she is looking for. Love her to pieces! Our most recent session took place on a beautifully sun-drenched autumn afternoon with splashes of color around us as vibrant as her personality! The mission? Cozy fall vibes. She nailed it! And we didn’t stop until the light slowly then very quickly faded, wrapping up with some of my absolute favorites from the day!! Mason, wishing you the best day! Happy Sweet 16!!
Absolutely BEAUTIFUL …. Mason & the pictures!!! Just can’t believe she’s 16. I, too, remember when she was born.
