Way up in an Apple Tree,
two little apples smiled down at me.
I shook that tree as hard as I could!
Boy were they good!
These photos are the result of the Sweet as Apple Pie Photo Contest I ran. I needed a model because I had a dress that inspired the whole thng. I was thrilled with the number of applications. All the children were very sweet. This was actually my first runner up! The funniest thing is that she decided she did not want to wear the actual apple dress!! :)
I always work organically in my photo shoots, especially when there are little children involved. We go with the flow both in the studio and on location, and it is in being with the true child that my favorite images occur.
Always on a shoot something is there that makes the unexpected happen. This empty greenhouse, had interesting light at sunset and created an opportunity.
The dress is still available for its maiden voyage if you have a size 3ish little girl who would like to eat some apples and frolic in the fields! And the weather is still beckoning, for all sized children, and now with colored leaves!
This is an installation of this gallery of images chosen by the family.
You can check out more photos of children's photography on my website!
