I So Love Sun Flare!

Hello friends!
Today I bring you a sister session.
These two gals used to dance at the studio I teach at.
I never taught them, but I mostly know who they are!
 
I hadn't seen them for a year or so before this shoot.
 
My first reaction was, wow, you both have grown... aren't they so beautiful?
 
I love what I do!
 
One of my favorite things is taking someone, who may feel a little awkward... telling me 'I don't know what to do', and watching them relax as I reassure them I will tell them what to do!
 
They feel unsure, even as I direct them... then I show them their image... and their face lights up... oh WOW!!!
 
It's like I get to show them a different side of themselves they haven't seen... and it's beautiful... both for me and for them!
 
This is how we started this shoot and I think by the end they trusted me and felt more confident!
 
The result?  Beautiful photos!
 
After I delivered prints mom sent me a text, which I've kept, because it's really nice to re-read these things! 
 
"Absolutely stunning and beautiful!!!  Fantastic job Carolyn!!  They are the best pics I have gotten so far!  Love them all :)  Thank you again for everything :)))"
 
And that, that is a job well done start to finish!  It makes me so happy!  I'm so glad I get to do this for people!  It rewards my life!

These first two are my favorites from our session...



And a few more for you...
In this first location, the light was SO perfect!  I love sun flare, back light... so warm, so dreamy!





 
Thanks ladies!  I loved taking your photos!
