Can anyone think of a better way to celebrate a birthday than a surprise portrait session? I was approached by Bethany, the creator behind Fizzy Artist based in Minnesota specializing in some beautiful customized glassware, who said she wanted to get something special for her sister Heather’s birthday. Their mother, Deann, was in town to see her 6 month old grand-baby, Olivia, and they were due for an updated family portrait. Heather’s husband, David, was in on the surprise and suggested I meet the family in their apartment uptown.
We had such a great time. Olivia, who was clearly the star of the show and had every reason to be, was so cute and was a perfect model. Just look at those baby blue eyes! David and Heather sang a cute song based Olivia’s name to get her to smile that I still have stuck in my head.
