Meet Yulissa and Yasenya

Little ones, Yesenya age 5 and Yulissa age 3 joined us for our first annual “Sonoran Spring Mini Session“.  Both little girls have totally different personalities. Yesenya is quieter and more reserved while her boisterous little sister Yulissa loves to talk. Once they get going, both little girls are ready to giggle and play. In short, they couldn’t be any more precious!!

These adorable little ladies were dressed in matching pink dresses and eager to meet the ducklings when we arrived at their home for their photo-shoot. Their beautifully landscaped backyard was perfectly suited for this mini-session, so we decided to take advantage of ready-made location and create a pixie world for the girls to play in. After several minutes of following ducklings around, the girls cozied up and played with their ducklings until it was time for us to leave. While Yulissa and Yasenya were getting used to the ducklings, we played in their bushes finding “light fairies” that magically appeared every so often.

In every photo-shoot, it’s my goal to create a magical finished image that reflects a child’s natural curiosity of the world, whether they are playing in dirt or watching ducklings pass by. I tend to stray away from making children sit still and pose, however, when they are willing, I always try to capture those style smiles. This tends to make children feel more at ease because they don’t feel the need to perform and can relax into their natural state. Below are some of our favorite images from this session. Don’t they look like little fairies?!
