I’ve been capturing this mama daughter duo since the moment she was born. And now this little lady is almost three and full of spark and sass in the best way. It’s that magical age where they're curious about everything, want to do everything themselves, but still need their mama close by for snuggles. This is the age I call “toddler-led sessions” where they basically do the opposite of everything we ask, so instead of asking we just let them take control and explore.
