Avery & Riley - Mad Hatter Tea party

The mom of these two ladies is one of the very first clients I had, right after I moved to College Station to attend A&M. Kelly immediately decided I was family and I've been shooting her girls ever since.:)

 Kelly is one of my favorite friend-clients because she's so enthusiastic about everything she does, is so caring towards the people in her life, and because she puts a lot of thought and planning into getting the types of shots she wants.

 Last fall Kelly was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer and a lot of this Mad Hatter Tea Party session was planned up via pinterest boards and emails when Kelly was at home dealing with chemo. Right now she is about to start her second round of chemo and I know hundreds of people are praying for her healing and strength. Would you join me if praying for her (particularly on Monday, when the next round of chemo starts)?

 

Kelly made these hats for the girls. Avery was.... less than enthused... about wearing them. (But she totally did) I'm always impressed by Avery's participation in our themes as she gets older, she's a great sport! .:) 

Riley loved it ;)

There was secret telling...

...and tea drinking with pinkies up

...and giggle fits

Pretty girls!

Maybe our next shoot should be "Brave" themed? Some long red hair, some bows and arrows...and couple of horses...I could see this working... ;)

Aren't those hats awesome? They belonged to their grandma.

Last, but not least, a couple with Ozzie :)
