ballerina beauty

so, i'm sure you can guess that i've been patiently waiting to get my real camera on my tiny dancer.
the time just hasn't been right.
plenty of iPhone pics.
but i haven't been brave enough to bust into the studio with the canon and ask for everyone to clear out while i do as i please...
not sure if that time will come.
but today i asked ella if she wanted to do a photo shoot with me and she enthusiastically started styling this shoot.
she knew what costumes she'd wear and what she'd do.
so i obviously went with it.
i set up a little mirror and some treats in my favorite 4 o'clock corner of my house and she showed me her stuff.
the high point was her lying on the ground with me dropping pink heart marshmallows on her while she giggled.
i was in heaven and she felt so special.
(you know the brothers were swarming in the background wanting at those marshmallows...back off boys!!)
i will love these photos forever.
i know it.
