Sometimes it is the smallest things in life that can give us the most joy.
This was such a special family session for me to capture for 2 year old Maddison. We had to reschedule once already due to some torrential weather a few weeks back but this time around we couldn't have asked for a better day!
The best time of the day for light is late afternoon.
Any parent will tell you that the worst time time of the day for a toddler is late afternoon.
But despite a long day Maddison was so good. I think maybe because she loved all the cuddles she was getting from Mum and Dad. Although it was kind of funny because if she was cuddling mum, she would be asking for Dad. If she was cuddling Dad, she was reaching out for Mum. Go figure.
Things were at a bit of a standoff when we were trying to get her to wear the gorgeous little head piece her mum had had made especially for the shoot. It was stunning, beautiful real baby's breath created by a florist just for this occasion, there was even a matching little posy!
She was not having it. We tried distracting her while sneaking it onto her head. Nope.
We tried bribing with treats and promises. Nope.
We tried bubbles. Yes!
Once the bubbles came out, just like that the headpiece was forgotten and the smiles were at full beam again.

I have never seen a little girl light up so quickly at the sight of bubbles, it was simply joy personified.
After the bubbles had finished she spent a lot of time making sure her shoes were on exactly right (and gave me a chance to photograph her amazing eyelashes!) before the last photo was taken and we were all headed home for a nice dinner and bed.
