Fiona- Still Fabulous (Alpharetta Baby Photography)

Once again, Fabulous Fiona (check out the link to her newborn pics here) gets a feature on the blog for her 6 month session- who can resist this cutie pie?

Kudos to mom for the fantastic mirror, pearls and bow/bloomer props!  I just love it when we can incorporate the family's things- makes it so special.  I always love outdoor sessions, so it's fun finding the perfect spot in the yard to set things up.



Fiona was enamored as well- apparently the mirror is one of her favorite 'toys'- the fun begins!



I love to work on some vintage/textured looks- and some of these pictures were perfect for that!



This little chair has come in handy on a couple of sessions and is pretty easy to throw in the back of my car- Fiona enjoyed it as well-



Ready for her closeup...





Next came the wardrobe change and some fun free time crawling around. I still can't believe how mobile she is for 6 months!





One last amazing prop- mom's vintage-style bicycle (along with dad's love of Queen's song 'Bicycle Race' on Rockabye Baby), it made for a perfect backdrop:





At the rate this little one's going, she could actually be riding that bicycle at the next session!  See you next time, Miss Fabulous! :)
