Oh Dani, these photos are just gorgeous. I particularly love the pictures of Katherine when she was wearing the white dress, the one of her in the white coat and the one with the cat. She certainly did have some beautiful clothes.

I love that she was still wearing gorgeous bows in her hair. If I have anything to do with it Sav will be a bow wearer for years to come yet!

To know that your baby girl has grown into such a beautiful woman must fill your heart with such pride.

Love and hugs
Elise

thank you, tanya!!!
i'm half way through her pictures... i just cannot believe how fast time goes by and how much she has changed...
the braces she's been sporting for over two years now have really changed the shape of her face and, of course, her mouth. i cannot wait to see the finished product; but, there are days i wish i could freeze time. however, it just keeps marching;/
love and hugs,

elise,
thank you!!! martin's studio has always done amazing work. i may have said this before, but all my childhood portraits were taken there as well by mr. steve's father, joe martin. for years before color film, joe's wife, margaret, painted the black and white portraits in oils. she was an incredible artist!!!
sav will be a beautiful bow wearer!!!
love,
dani

What totally gorgeous photos ~ that Mr Steve sure knows his stuff.
I love the one of you two together ~ I have been thinking of getting one done with Lauren ~ a Mother and daughter and of course I would have one done with just me and Dan too.
Can't wait for next Thursday!!!
love and hugs,
Tabitha XXXX

Katherine looks so lovely in that white winter coat!! I also really like the black and white one where she's holding the little angel (?) (not 100% sure, but it's definitely not a goat ;)
and also the one with the cat (yes, definitely a cat): she's not posing in that picture and there's a very sweet smile on her face.

Knuffels,
Tania

dani said...

yes, tabitha, mr. steve does know his stuff... the picture of the two of us is funny because mr. steve told us to look serious, which made both of us want to giggle:D i have a large one of that one hanging in my bedroom. kat calls it the floating heads because our black sweater fade into the background.
you and lauren and you and daniel should have one made respectively. you'll treasure them forever!!!
love,
dani xx

dani said...

knuffels back to you, tania:D yes that is an angel; it was her first CHristmas tree ornament. with katherine's birthday falling in december, most of her photography (after she turned one) i used for CHristmas cards. the one with the angel was one of my favorites, too.
love,
dani xx

What beautiful pictures. I found you thru penny n' pounds and you have this captivating smile so I thought I'd visit. Don't worry I'm not gay.
I was looking at your favorite movie list and kept saying "oh yeah! I forgot about that one!" Going to look at older posts....

dani said...

hugs,

em,
i have that coat in the attic along with all her dresses. she was so girly when she was small the only thing she ever "wore out" were her denims...
if i can get up there to it, i will look at the brand (i think it is either a kate mack or a corky and co. if so, you may still be able to order one or something like it).
we have a children's specialty store (klassy kids)here in town. that is from where 99% of katherine's clothes came until her pre-teen years...
