Little Pink Dress

When she was born, Teagan Rose received a beautiful, delicate, fine lawn, hand-embroidered, hand-sewn dress from her namesake, Great-Grandma Rose. It was made especially for TeaRose by one of Grandma Rose's friends. It's a lovely little dress, but it was too big for her, so we were hoping it would fit her this summer, but she had a growth spurt so I don't think that's going to happen. Instead, we turned up the heat, put her in the dress and took about 70 pictures of her.

I won't post all of them here...I won't even post my favorite top 30. But it's seriously going to tear my heart out to only choose a few. *sigh*

Oh, in case you're wondering, I used natural lighting (no flash) for the majority of the pictures w/Teag in them, as it made the pictures more "dreamy" somehow. Oh: and aside from setting up an area in which to take the pictures, and plunking her down in it, not a single one of these is "posed." The kid is a natural! ;-)


First, though, just the dress:

The dress also had this lovely little embroidered slip that came with it!


And now: the lovely model!













*sigh* Wasn't that lovely??

If I could be assured that every child would be as cooperative as Teag was, I'd totally go into the child photography buisness! Haha!
