Cupcakes, Leaf Piles, and Rudnicki Family Photos

I have known Taylor for as long as I can remember.  Taylor was my childhood neighbor and she endured days of babysitting my siblings and I, carting my less than petite baby body around the hood. Now Taylor has some sweet babes of her own, and I got to document some precious family moments as they welcomed baby Logan into the family.

Little Sophie is turning four, and she is a ham.  Tell her that her hair looks like Rapunzel's, and you have made a life long friend.  She was really enthusiastic about one specific shot she wanted to make sure we got before the shoot was up, and it involved her running and jumping in the giant leaf pile.  While Taylor and Dan encouraged the idea, they told Sophie that picture needed to happen at the end so that she wasn't all dirty for the other pictures.  

Well, 45 minutes may as well be seven years for a four year old, so you can imagine how excited she was when this finally happened.

Pure.

Bliss.

Then after the shoot, we all celebrated Dan's birthday with cupcakes and great company.  Photo shoots don't get much better than that.
