Anna Claire {Little Rock Child Photographer}
Pearls of Wisdom
This weekend I had the privilege of photographing the most amazing first birthday party. Mom invited numerous important women and asked that they share pearls of wisdom with the guest of honor. Everyone came dressed in their finest pearls (including me). We laughed and cried and celebrated Anna Claire’s first year. I am so honored to have been a part of it.
February 8, 2010 - 1:14 pm - These are the best!!!! I am so thrilled that you could join us for AC's big day. It has been so wonderful sharing her first year with you. Your biggest fan, Amy.
February 8, 2010 - 12:55 pm - precious pictures! i absolutely love the pearls and pearls of wisdom idea - brilliant!

Picture of the Day {Little Rock Child Photographer}
Every day, my professional lab, Colorinc, choses a “picture of the day” from all of the images uploaded that day for processing. Guess what? Today, one of my images is the picture of the day! It is a huge honor to be chosen, and I am so super excited! A big thank you to the folks at Colorinc for taking a shine to me!

The Hill {Little Rock Child Photographer}
Most days, the hill is my nemesis. It is tall, long, and steep, and it sits right in front of my house. I don’t dare walk it for fear that it will whip me into shape . . . or kill me. But, every once in a while, the hill turns into something magical. Today, bolstered by the unbridled joy of my daughters, I conquered the hill.
Snow is rare in Little Rock. Rare and wonderful.
