I love celebrating milestone birthdays,  especially a 3 year old glitter mini session. I met this little girl when she came in to the studio for her first birthday. She was so fun for her cake smash shoot. Baby Mary, as I still like to call her, was such a doll. And to be honest, still looks just like a doll. Her smile is so sweet and serene. She hasn’t changed at all since her first year.

Last year we took her birthday session outdoors and it had a wanderlust feel to it. Mary was like a fairy enjoying nature.

This year she was as serious and stoic as ever in her gorgeous tutu du monde dress. She kept us on her toes for her 3 year old glitter mini session. She tried so hard to blow the glitter. And it was so sweet to watch her clean it up every time. She was adamant on picking up every piece and then do it all over again. Even her aunt was in on the fun. We were all working our magic to try to get this little lady to smile. It was all worth while, because she is still themes beautiful life-size doll I have ever met. Mary is just the perfect little princess to work with. I cannot wait until next years birthday session.
