Photography – Learning With My Boys

3 Year Old Flowers Photos

Éowyn is 3 years old now, and is growing and learning so much each and every day. She loves spending time with her family, playing with her baby dolls, eating sweets, and water play.

Éowyn is very excited for her birthday party… this is the first year that she understands that the day is all about her. She talks about opening her birthday gifts and being 3!

She wore a brightly colored dress with flowers on it, and we took advantage of the Easter flower display at church to take her pictures.

My granddaughter is 2 years old and she is talking in sentences already. She saw Storm dressing up as Jasmine and asked to be a princess too. So I got out one of Storm’s old dresses for her to try on. She loved it

Jasmine loves her pet tiger, Rajah. We found this one on Amazon.

She wore her Jasmine costume, and felt like such a “pretty princess”.

I used some curtains and scarves as the back drop and flooring. I also had found some gold vases at the local thrift store. Then I also added the gold beads and golden lantern.

4 Year Old Jasmine Preschool Photoshoot

Disney’s Aladdin is super enjoyable for Storm, her favorite animal is a tiger. We love playing Aladdin in the dvd player in the car every March to prepare her for her Jasmine photoshoot!

Princess Jasmine is such a loving and generous girl. She loves her subjects and wants to help them from the youngest to the oldest. She tries to help the small children to get an apple at the beginning of the movie, and loves that Aladdin gives away gold coins during his parade.

Storm is also a very generous girl. She is always thinking of her little niece whenever she gets a special treat or prize. She wants to bring a treat or prize to her too!

She wore the Jasmine Costume that I found on Amazon. The rest of the props and back drops are all from thrift shops. I pulled her hair back into 3 spaced pony tails. She wore her gold earrings and went barefoot today. She also had her large stuffed tiger to look like Rajah.

4 Year Old Rapunzel Preschool Photoshoot

Disney’s Tangled is such a fun and silly movie that Storm loves. We love playing Tangled in the dvd player in the car every February to prepare her for her Rapunzel photoshoot!

Princess Rapunzel is such a fun and silly girl. She finds things to love and have fun in all situations. She is has to stand up for herself against the only person that she has ever known before. But she gains true love and a family for her bravery.

Storm is also a silly girl who proves her bravery over and over again. She is not afraid of anything and always wants to lead and do things by herself. We try to teach her to make the most of every situation as well.

We took these pictures in the kitchen with a purple curtain as the backdrop and the stone wall that I made for our X-Men Trunk-or-Treat. I painted a sun on the tiny frying pan when she was a baby for her Baby Rapunzel photos, I printed out a picture of Flynn Rider on some resume paper to give it an old look, and I found this neat candle lantern at a thrift store. We also added some fun pink flowers. She is wearing a Rapunzel dress with white tights. I combed her hair straight after her back and parted it on the side. She wore her purple earrings are from a multi color pack that I bought when she was a baby.

4 Year Old Elsa Preschool Photoshoot

I feel like Frozen is every girls favorite. She is starting to learn the songs now. We love playing Frozen it in the dvd player in the car every January to prepare her for her Elsa photoshoot!

Elsa is a powerful princess. She is learning how to control her powers and doesn’t want to hurt her family while she figures it out. She will do anything to protect her sister from getting hurt by her powers, even isolate herself from Anna. I love that the “one true love” at the end of the movie is the sister rather than the boy this time.

Storm also loves her family and tells me several times a day “Mom,” waits for me to answer and says, “I love you!” She is learning everyday too, and discovering new strengths as she grows.

We took her Elsa pictures in the front yard after out biggest snow ever. We had 17 inches in 24 hours! She wore an Elsa dress that someone had given to us last year with a crown that we found with blue hearts. She wore boots this year because of so much snow, and she wore her blue earrings are from a multi color pack that I bought when she was a baby. I put a loose braid in her hair and tried to put it over their shoulder. She wanted to bring out her giant stuffed Olaf and some snowflakes that we had.

2 Timothy 1:7 “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”

4 Year Old Belle Preschool Photoshoot

Beauty and the Beast is one of her favorites, for some reason she is fascinated with the Beast. She is starting to love all of the songs as much as I do too! We love playing Beauty and the Beast in the dvd player in the car every December to prepare her for her Belle photoshoot!

Belle is an adventurous girl who loves to read to experience excitement. She loves her father and friends more than anything, and will do anything to protect them. She is brave, bold and brilliant!

Storm is also adventurous, and brave. She is not afraid to wander in unknown places, and often explores with me following behind. We read books every night, hoping that she will develop a natural love of books as well.

We took her Belle pictures outside for the first time this year, since it got up to 50 degrees today. We just went into the yard and brought her props with us. Her beautiful yellow dress was given to us when she was a baby, and I’ve been saving it for her. I curled her hair and pulled the top portion of it back into a bun with a bun shaper. Then I wrapped a yellow ribbon around the bun. She wore her gold earrings that have the screw on backings. I got this old book at one of our library book sales. The Chip Mug was given to me as a Christmas gift a few years back. The mirror and rose just came from out local dollar store.

Hebrews 11:1 Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see.

4 Year Old Pocahontas Preschool Photoshoot

The Pocahontas Disney movie is one of my recent favorites, since I have started reading about the history of the United States. We love playing in the dvd player in the car every November to prepare her for her Pocahontas photoshoot!

Pocahontas is a respectful of nature and people. She is always outside with the river or mountains or cornfields. She spends time with her Grandmother Willow and the animals that live with her. Pocahontas tries to teach her new friend how to respect nature as well.

Storm loves nature as well. At school they call her “The Flower Hunter”. She can find wild flowers no matter what season. She also loves being outside and learning about animals too.

We went to a local park to take her Pocahontas photos this year. She wore her beautiful long hair down, to flow in the wind! She also had on a turquoise necklace that I had found at a consignment shop, and her turquoise earrings that we bought last year. She wore her Pocahontas dress that we bought last year after Halloween. I had her wear black leggings since it was colder this time of year than it has in the past. Last, she wore her golden sandals.

4 Year Old Cinderella Preschool Photoshoot

Disney’s Cinderella is such a sweet movie that reminds us all to be kind in all situations. We love playing in the dvd player in the car every October to prepare her for her Cinderella photoshoot!

Cinderella is kind and gentle in all situations. The animals love her because she is so gentle with them, and she truly cares about them. The mice and birds also love her, helping to prepare her dress for the ball. All off the animals help with her coach going to the ball as well.

Storm truly cares about her loved ones as well. Every day when she eats something yummy she sets a small bit aside to save for when her niece comes over (even if it is days away). She is an empathetic girl as well. Whenever I am not feeling well or hurt myself (even if I just stub my toe), she rushes to me to find out how she can help. Mostly giving lots of hugs and empathetic looks.

We went to a local chapel to take these pictures on the front steps. She wore her Cinderella dress that we got from a resale shop and her white gloves, headband, and necklace. She wore her white dress shoes with the low heel and her pearl earrings. I pulled her hair backing using a bun shaper and added her headband. I found this large clock with the Roman numerals on Facebook for free. I spray painted a white pumpkin with silver glitter. And I found this star wand and tiny glass slipper on Amazon.

Romans 12:12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.

4 Year Old Snow White Preschool Photoshoot

Disney’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is such a fun and silly movie that Storm loves. We love playing in the dvd player in the car every September to prepare her for her Snow White photoshoot!

The 7 Dwarfs have such a fun and silly time with Snow White, bringing out her motherly side. They care about her so much that they, even Grumpy, warns her to be careful of letting anyone into the house. Snow White loves taking care of them and their house, cleaning, cooking, and loving all 7 dwarfs.

My Little Storm loves being silly and she also loves being my helper in the kitchen and watching her little niece. She is still learning what it means to be a diligent worker and to be aware of strangers. She loves EVERYONE that she meets and doesn’t know a stranger! I pray that one day she will grow up learning to love like Snow White and to make the best in all circumstances.

We took these pictures out in our backyard near the woods. She loves being outside and goes out every chance that she gets. She wore her Snow White dress that I found at the resale shop after last Halloween! Her shoes are the black flats with a bow and her earrings are from a multi color pack that I bought when she was a baby. We loved these earrings because they have the twist on backing and she wore the red earrings today. The red bow in her hair came from a colorful pack of bow that I had bought when she was a baby as well. This oval gold mirror I also found at a resale store several years ago. I used the wooden brown basket to put her apples in. I always buy Red Delicious because they look the most red like in the movie.

Proverbs 31:25 She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future.

4 Year Old Sleeping Beauty Preschool Photoshoot

Disney’s Sleeping Beauty is such a typical princess “happily ever after” story that little girls love. We have it playing in the dvd player in the car every August to prepare her for her Sleeping Beauty photoshoot!

The 3 good fairy’s bless Princess Aurora with beauty, grace, and song. She is such a joy for the fairy’s when she lives with them, they get upset when she turns 16 and has to leave. They want to do what is best for the princess even if it is hard for them, and they are teaching her how important it is to live with dignity and make good moral choices.

My Perfect Storm is also beautiful and loves singing and listening to songs. She is still learning what it means to live a moral life, even when the world is telling her the opposite. I pray that one day she to will live with dignity and be proud of her life choices.

We visited a local rose garden for this photoshoot. She loved seeing all of the different colors of flowers and wanted a picture by each color. She wore the same Sleeping Beauty dress that she wore for the past few years (I bought it big so I wouldn’t have to keep getting her a new one each year). Her white dress shoes had a bow and a little strap. I curled her hair before we left the house while she ate her lunch. Lastly we put in the gold and pink earrings that I had bought a few years ago for these photoshoots. I bought gold glitter cardstock and made her crown and necklace. This gold glitter cardstock was perfect for cutting and there was no mess. I printed out this free princess crown template and cut it out and traced it on the back of the gold paper. Then she just held the single red rose too. I was able to get her to lay on a pillow this year and to close her eyes of couple times.
