I’ve known Stella’s mama for a long time. We were lifeguards together during those bitter-sweet high school years. Never could anyone doubt that Barb would be a beautiful and loving mother. Meeting Stella today I instantly fell in-love with her wild black hair, something I’ve always envied on her mother. Barb and I both made whole hearted attempts to “style” this baby for her first photo shoot, but let’s face it, that babydoll had the upper hand and refused to be put down. So we worked with her. Here’s a first look at today’s late afternoon session.
