Back in art school I always photographed things and never people. Now, it's hard to imagine that. People are amazing to photograph. One of the things that I love about photographing people is how faces change, quickly and almost imperceptibly. The tiny changes make huge differences. A lean might soften a face and a lip curls to creates a bit of sass. Something changes and the eye sparkles just a bit more than it did a split second ago.




Meet sweet little Olivia, leaned in and checking me out

and with her little chin up, almost ready to smile

and, there it is...sweet, sweet smiles!

and then, after a little hat change and a few tears, we have this amazing vulnerable face.

Thank you Miss Olivia for sharing your subtle and beautiful expressions with me.

P.S. My one-year old son is completely enamored with her and these photographs. He's just in a trance staring and smiling at her! :)
