One of my favorite kind of smiles

is a smile with freshly lost teeth!

Those of you know know me know that this is one of my favorite times to photograph a child. This is such a "moment," such a great capture of childhood. She will never look like this again! I have clients call to reschedule shoots because their child just lost a tooth, but I tell them to come in anyway. It's really an awesome time to do a portrait.

Meet my daughter's good friend, M. I have been dying to take a picture of my daughter this way (with two missing front teeth), but I am afraid it's just not gonna happen. She already lost one of her front teeth, and the 2nd one has been hanging on for months. So thanks for letting me capture this special smile for you, M!
