Fairy Princess

I've already posted this photo to my Facebook page but I've had so many comments on it that I thought I'd blog about it as well. Harriet Byrum brought her little Avery and her nephew, Lane, over last week for some long overdue photos. Lane is always a sweetheart and Avery is just as cute as she can be but she was not doing EXACTLY what her mommy wanted that afternoon. She had a beautiful dress for some photos with Lane to give the grandparents but she was also in a little bit of a wandering mood when we were trying to do these. Harriett had been promising her the fairy costume at the end of the session and she finally put her in it to get her in a "happier" mood. She is so adorable but her costume was a little big on her and her wings were a little floppy. We tried clothes pinning her into it but Avery wasn't much in the mood for our attempts. I finally got her to sit down because her princess dress didn't look so big when she was seated and, for some reason, I suddenly because the kids' version of a stand-up comedian. Everything I said to Avery was funny. She giggled, she laughed, she practically flapped her wings. There were far too many for me to choose ONE that I liked so I just put together a lot of them.
