Tweens and Teens

tween - n.
A child between middle childhood and adolesence, usually between 8 and 12 years old

I get the opportunity to photograph hundreds of newborns, babies, and toddlers each year. I've noticed that after toddler-hood photo sessions become less frequent. Lives get real busy with school, sports and other activities. But these years are just as formative as the baby years. That's why I was so happy when mom contacted me to photograph 'S' and 'A'. With older children, you can communicate your vision, and really take the time to compose a shot.


Gorgeous sister 'A'

And 'S', a very talented guitarist


Playing with some different processing and a background blend.

It was really neat to discover that 'S' had the same guitar teacher as my husband did 20 years ago. It's a small world!
