I photographed Miss Amelia and her momma here in LA back when Amelia was just a crawler and now that she is up and walking she was due for some new photos. Since Amelia and her family live in Charleston S.C. I wasn't expecting to get to photograph her again but to my surprise her family invited me to Charleston to document Amelia... of course I jumped at the chance and I'm SO glad I did. Charleston is a city I've always wanted to visit and Amelia's family even invited my fiance to come along with me! What a beautiful city... I particularly enjoyed the endless amounts of fried southern food, amazing history, and friendly faces. The ONLY downsides were the bugs and the humidity but eventually I learned to cope with both.

Now on to Miss Amelia... she was just as cute as I remembered, only this time she was full of even more personality! I got to spend the afternoon with her and together we laughed, we cried, and played a lot of "ring around the rosie". Her two brothers were just as adorable as she was! They simply adored their baby sister and were eager to help get her to smile for the camera which helped make my job a bit easier :) I had a blast photographing this beautiful family at their home in Charleston, (which by the way was the most amazing home I have ever seen... definitely unlike anything we have here in CA) they were generous hosts and great company...

I hope you enjoy the photos!
