After meeting Carson for the first time, Scott knew that this children’s photo session was going to be unique. Carson was wearing an outfit of her own design…mismatched socks, a long layered skirt, t-shirt and head band with long satin ribbons on the side. As her mother, I felt the need to explain that Carson has her own fashion taste, and that I usually just let her roll with it. Scott loved it and knew exactly how and where he wanted her photo shoot to take place! He said he wanted to capture her personality in the photographs so that I would have a perfect candid picture of Carson just as she was at six years old.

After our consultation, we decided to let Carson pick out some of her favorite outfits and accessories and that we would do a candid model shoot in front of the artfully painted wall of the antique market in downtown Vero Beach.
The day of the shoot, Scott chose two of Carson’s outfits that would coordinate perfectly with our scenery. Then he got to work! He encouraged Carson to be herself and she had a blast modeling for the camera. (It is hard to tell who was having more fun during the session, Scott or Carson).

Scott captured so many of Carson’s expressions that I had a hard time choosing a favorite. Let us know which one you like the best!
