Olivia just turned 7 years old in March.  7!!!  She is definitely a girly girl who fancies herself a rockstar.  When it was time to do her birthday portrait shoot I thought we should girl it up with a little glitz and glamour but with a seven year old kind of edge.  That’s where the hot pink back drop and the twinkle tinsel stars come in!  Just add Olivia and Voila!  Rockstar portrait shoot, but G Rated!

 

Olivia did this pose with her hat and I couldn’t stop laughing!  Perfect!  You can see that this set is totally Olivia!

 

Olivia’s Mom made this cool guitar so she could have something to rock out with.

The third outfit change!  Olivia had her birthday party at a roller skating rink!  I love roller skates!  I knew we had to incorporate them into the shoot.

 

The picture on the right kills me!

 

Ben and Jonah are brothers who have birthdays that are 2 days apart!  This year Ben turned 5 and Jonah turned 2 years old.  Together they are a bundle of energy!  Chasing these guys around hard work!  These boys have an uncanny talent.  If one is sitting nicely the other one is somewhere else.  When you try to bring them together the brother who was sitting nicely immediately gets up and runs away.  It’s sort of amazing!

I think these pictures are so much fun!  This one of Ben is the first photo I took.  After this the action began…

 

I brought out some crinkly paper to put on the floor to add a little dimension to the pictures.  As soon as it was out both boys emptied the packages and were throwing it around!  I love these!!

 

Action shots! 

 

Ben is too funny!

 

You know why Jonah is so happy?  He just pushed his brother off of his chair!

 

 

Jonah was in love with this rocking chair!  I’m surprised he didn’t try to swipe it!

 

Ben on the other hand was in love with the big ball of crinkle paper!

 

PS I made the banners in the background!  Getting my craft on!
