Mia and Nate

We first met Mia and Nate last month when we photographed their aunt and uncle’s wedding. (You take a sneak peek at their wedding by looking for Nicole and Ryan in our October archives!)

We completely fell in love with Mia and Nate and were so thrilled when their mom, Stephanie, called us a few weeks later to ask us to come on over for a portrait session with them. It was great to see everyone again and we had so much fun with Mia and Nate. When we first walked in we found Mia sitting in her tights on the counter still getting ready. That’s when I discovered that Mia will do just about anything for the tickle of a blush brush. Who knew!! So Mia got dressed in her special dress from Nicole and Ryan’s wedding and then she was ready for her closeup:

Isn’t she just beautiful?? Now as much as Mia loves to be tickled with that little brush, we knew there had to be something that would get Nate to giggle, too. It turns out, Nate’s prized possessions are his stuffed animals - and especially this fantastic Mickey Mouse bear that is probably bigger than he is! Nate had no problem showing off his buddy to us here:

And of course we couldn’t leave without getting a few of them together! (Sometimes easier said than done - as all of you moms and dads of toddlers know!) But Mia and Nate were such troopers and we were able to get a whole series of images of them together including this one:

And all of that smiling and looking pretty is enough to make any model a little sleepy, so we’ll end with this little one catching up on her beauty rest as we tiptoed out the door…

We hope to see you all again soon!!
