The day of Jolai and Josanna’s portrait session, I’d been running around all day preparing for the weekend, and I was exhausted. I asked my friend, Jen, to pray for me, as I didn’t feel I had any creativity or energy to do a photo shoot.
Jolai was the answer to prayer. She is a ball of energy, and she had me running around all over the place and laughing so hard that I felt rejuvenated afterwards. I love this little girl. She’s our friends’ daughter. I remember borrowing her when she was a baby so I could take photos of her. Now, she can run circles around me.
See those rocks behind her? I had asked her earlier if she wanted to come over our place the next day so she can play Rock Band. She saw those rocks, turned to me and said, “Aunt Nely, why don’t you put down your camera? We can play rock band right here!” lol!
We’d come upon a hill earlier so I asked Jolai if she was sure she wanted to climb up. She said, “Of course! I can climb as well as a mountain goat!” lol! Then, she found this rock. Her mom asked her to please sit like a lady. She said, “No, mommy. I’d rather lie down like this, like a mountain goat!”
Josanna wasn’t so impressed by my “knock, knock” jokes. She was upset that we woke her up from her nap.
Ah, have I mentioned lately, how much I love my job? I get paid to work with beautiful people who energize me. Thanks Zach and Erica for trusting me to photograph your little girls!
