Smitten.
Taken today, our back garden, ten minutes to dark.
I could not possibly adore her any more.

Oh Sheye,
She is so beautiful. The colours are so soothing and she looks like she is part of the earth. A fairy in the garden.
She makes me want all things girlie.
Hope August is being kind to you.

Oh wow. That little gal is just as adorable as could be. And the lighting is beautiful. So soft, yet directional. Now I REALLY want to take some photos just before sunset. Thanks so much for the inspiration!
-
How natural and gracious she is in her simple skirt and long-sleeved tee. And the tones in the photos makes it look like she’s exploring an enchanted forest. Just lovely!

You never told us that you lived in Fairy Wonderland. But then again, anything is possible in the land of Oz, isn’t it?

Absolutely beautiful – how I long for a back garden….. sigh… and to see my little girls explore…. it’s wonderful to see someone who has such a simple pleasure available to them truly appreciate it…

I would not say that these are too dark! They are Gor-Juice-Imo. The colors are amazing. I love your processing. Once again, you have not failed to amaze me.

Sheye, those are so beautiful.

These are so great. I love that almost-dark almost autumn-like feel to them, even though I know that’s not the season you’re heading into down there. But my favorite part of posts like these is hard to explain. You have suffered unthinkable loss, but you still could shout your love for your children from the roof tops it seems like. I just love knowing that that doesn’t go away that you can break through that fear of ever admitting you loved something so much and be happy with you have and what you had and still have so much loving adoration to go around. That probably makes no sense. But to me it’s brave and beautiful and a wonderful gift to your children to know your heart broke but they still have all the pieces of it they need and you aren’t afraid to give it to them even though you know how very fragile it can make a person. To you it’s probably second nature, but to me it’s proof of a fear I might be able to conquer one day: not censoring my love for others (even my dogs) based on the fear of loss.

She is adorable…all your children are. Love those images. Your backyard is great for photos.
Take care
-
These pictures are GORGEOUS!!! your talent amazes me as does the beauty of your children!
-
Sheye, these took my breath away. It’s like she stepped right out of a fairy tale. Much love sent your way, especially this month. Will be thinking of you.
-
Absolutely beautiful, I felt a mix of girly-untidy-dreamy look. So so lovely, thank you for sharing your family photos, I love to see how your {stranger-for-me} sons grow… I feel I know them :)
Love from Argentina.

Sheye, these are gorgeous! So girly, tender and beautiful. I don’t know which to admire more – your lovely back garden or the fact that your little girl is so obedient to take photos!
-
I adore these Sheye. Adore them. My fave pics of Ivy I would think.
-
Sheye, I already commented on flickr, but I just had to again when I read here that this is your back garden! What a gorgeous wonderland you have! And a perfect little Alice to go with it. ;)
-
Pretty little faerie girl, pretty little world.
-
You’ve got your own style as long as I’ve been following you in here, but this is, if possible, getting even more personalized. Just as in a fairy, as some said.
Love your art. Love the setting. Love your beauty;)
Take care.

WOW
so glad I got my Ivy photo fix tonight.
I’m going to bed smiling at such beauty.
It’s so obvious that Ivy knows someone very special is above her looking after her as she is always looking up there.

SO BEAUTY FULL

Need.photos.here!!!!!
I sat watching these pics load with the mantra ‘please don’t be Cali, please don’t be Cali’ so imagine my delight when you said they were taken in your yard *swoon*
If you thought I loved your garden with the yummy yellow flowers in my shoot, I love it a lil more with pink!
Can’t wait to see you, oh & that gorgy daughter of yours…could she get anymore scrumptious!?!?!

Wow! I am in love..with her….with you..You are AMAZING…and it shows in all you do…even your kids…hugs…blessing..and much joy! Shi~

I am addicted to your blog site. I anxiously anticipate what I will find every single day, and I am never disappointed. The photographs of your children capture the feelings that we moms have about our own kids – beauty, love, tenderness. Thank you for what you do… I know that some days it is difficult. However, know that your words are making a difference. Ivy is simply scrumptious… what a lovely, lovely child.

I love this shoot. The ground, the leaves, etc. It all almost seems mystical. I wish I could get my girls to do this for me. But they figured out laying down on the grass can bring you closer to getting a bug up your pant leg, down your shirt, etc. Sigh…I’d give Ivy an extra helping of ice cream for dessert for these pics!
-
Beautiful!!
-
Wow, Sheye. Just spectacular! I love the light and the color. It’s absolutely beautiful. I love how it feels like you got a little bit of a new angle on your shots too…..and I love how she is looking up….it all just ties together, making for an amazing, beautiful moment. She reminds me of Alice in Wonderland. Did you know that the author of the book Alice in Wonderland,Lewis Carroll, was a photographer?
-
How amazingly beautiful are those photos! I am so envious of your backyard Sheye, it reminds me of my childhood out in the bush, many a day I spent imagining and day dreaming about magical places……….ahhhh to be a little girl again! Ivy looks just delicious, she is such a beautiful little thing. Thanks for sharing your special talents with us!

I love seeing in frames, I love the beauty in the ordinary, I love my camera, I love that when I see images I hear too. I love the latelight, I love finding moments I didn’t imagine and I love creating moments I did. I love learning more every day, I love sharing what I’ve come to know, and I love making pictures pretty.
I’m so glad you stopped by. xx
She is absolutely scrumptious! I love how her skirt picks up the hints of pink in the background and the leaves on the ground. Probably wouldn’t have noticed it otherwise. Love it!
