I’m so excited to share this picture this week at I Heart Faces. The theme is “At the Beach” and I thought this one would be perfect! This is one my all-time absolute favorite pictures of my little sweetie, Autumn. She had been playing in the sand and water and popped up at just the right to time for us to capture this gorgeous shot. Playing in the sand in very serious business for this little girl!
Check out I Heart Faces for some more fun shots at the beach!
Edited to add: Thank you all for your sweet comments! I appreciate them so much! They are such a bright spot to my day! Many of you have asked how I’ve edited some of my photos and I wanted to let you know that I have been working very hard this summer with my sister building a new website with bunches of photography and digital scrapbooking tutorials. This is where I will be posting all of my “how-to’s” and tricks. It should be up and ready within the next few weeks, so keep an eye out for that! Thanks again for all of your wonderful comments! I feel so blessed to have found such a wonderful community of fellow photographers!

Oh my gosh. She is so cute. It even looks like she has a tiny tear on her right cheek. This picture is very lovely. And I love that name too! Autumn. So pretty!
Wow, her expression is priceless! Great capture.
