For a variety of reasons, some too personal to share and others just a matter of geography and busy lives, my husband and I met our niece Jenny’s daughter, Ava, for the first time last winter and saw her again in April. She’s five now, a beautiful little girl with a big personality who completely beguiled us. I couldn’t help myself; I had to try to capture that twinkle in her portrait…

Excellent unsentimental portrait of a child, a child as a little human, not a little lamb,

Sorry I took so long to respond, but I don’t often look on the website for comments. As you may or may not notice, it’s because I just posted that I’m seeing your comments. I really appreciate your understanding of portraits.
