A "living doll" in the true sense of the phrase, Nina! You must have that quality /aura/whatever you want to call it, that lets your young subjects relax, and lets you capture wonderful expressions like this little girl's. Lovely work! #1485776

You have an award winning series with these little angels. Each one will make the hardest of men go aweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Two things I am loving, first as with this precious little one, you have a theme in mind. Second the cap is so cute and makes her look like a beautiful little flower. Third, I see the joy in the facial expressions. Forth, you have a family heirloom my dear friend. God bless. #10318580

All of you are very kind and I really appreciate your support; I'm trying to transition from sports to portraits with an emphasis on "special needs" photography; I'm always open to any advice or suggestions that will help me to improve and be a better photographer. #10318830
