Rachel & Kaylee | Orlando tween photography

Wow – has it really been since June since I blogged?!  It’s not for a lack of teen sessions thankfully.    I have lots to share from the last half of 2016 (still can’t believe it’s 2017!).  First up, these twin 7th graders who came all the way from Orlando for a tween session.   You […]
