Eva, a cousin who I haven’t seen in many many years, wanted a really awesome session to include personalized images for herself and two kiddos (Zach & Sofia)…little did I know at the time that would mean having to get up at the butt-crack of dawn.  Getting up before the sun is something I do about twice a year, and usually for photography or a plane flight…but it is well worth it for either purpose.  For our particular purpose, we were desperately trying to grab some images of Zach (soccer player extraordinaire) at the really-super-state-of-the-art-fantastic-massive Overland Park Soccer Complex before the place filled up.  We started just after 7a and it was already hard finding a field not crowded.  Soccer folk are CRAZY if you ask me. 🙂  I thought I could impress him with my veteran soccer playing skills…   nope.  I almost forgot to post this…it was sooooooooo funny.  We tried sooooo hard to get some high jump kick action shots, but Matt and I pretty much SUCK at throwing the ball right.  Poor Zach indulged our failures.  After about 20 tries, I finally just switched to video mode.  Had to capture it. 🙂 hahahahahahaha
Yea…the sun was pretty bright already.  hahaha I love her sweet little face.  It reminds me of all the cute little girls in this world that dance around in princess dresses while their mothers savor the moment.  Remember this face, Eva, in about 10 years when she’s begging for shopping money and to stay out late. Eva, you are STUNNING!  I love everything about this picture.  …and this one, too.  Ug!  I feel like the genetics in our family just didn’t get passed around evenly.  I got shorted. hahahahaThis one too a while, and is the reason for blog delay…but sooooo awesome.  It looks amazing in vibrant color, but the sepia-old look just looked so dramatic I had to post it instead.  Eva, you’ve proved your pro modeling abilities with standing so still.  You did PERFECT!
