shelley vance photography

what a beautiful face! this quiet little girl's eyes tell volumes!

what a sweet boy!! this little man is full of energy and on the move! Add a beautiful location to that wonderful personality and what i gotwas a great morning and tons of shots!

i photographed miss liv in october of last year and she didn't want much to do with the camera and taking pictures.... well my has she changed! this time she wanted to go on walks with me and laugh at the camera. she is so full of energy and is into everything... perfectly two! we had so much fun and she is indeed a doll!

i love kids! i have always imagined myself as a mother and teacher. even when i was an art major in college i still had "teacher" in the back of my mind. even though i became a teacher after having kids, photography stayed my passion. now i cherish photographing kids. there is something about chasing them for the "perfect picture" that gets my heart racing and puts a smile on my face. as all mothers know, you can't expect the kids to "pose" for the camera...the one behind the camera has to do the work. i love capturing THAT moment...the one that shows the true personality of the little heart inside the little person!
