Athena: portraits in the park

I'm working a split shift at my day job today, and it's almost AMAZING. I mean, of course I'd rather not go back to work at 5, but the 4 hours of uninterrupted editing time I'm getting in at Starbucks this afternoon is quite magical.

You may remember Athena from last years Portraits in the Park. I'm completely blown away by how much she's grown over the last year! I love being able to look back at older pictures and see the change in little ones. Kids change so quickly and I think it's so important to document that change. I definitely consider myself blessed that Athena's family has trusted me to photograph her 2 years in a row. ♥
