These lovely ladies spent a wee amount of time with me at a local park this past weekend.  

My goal was to capture the lovely Mama Megan with her little ladies.  They read and explored the dock. 

The littlest lady sucked her fingers JUST like my Sydney did at her age.  Made my heart ache just watching.  I look back now and wish I had more pictures of her doing this.  I know I have plenty, but so often we are reaching and pulling our little ones hands and trying to place them just right for pictures, but I am realizing when I do these photo shoots that hands show so much of who people are and the relationships they have.  Hands connect people with where they rest and show such affection when they hold on.  Look at sister grabbing so tight to mama's pants.  

Look at mom's hands holding tight to the two little loves of her life.  

And how naturally mama's hand fell onto her daughters.

I have never been so aware of hands in pictures, until I have started taking pictures of other people's relationships.  And I am more and more amazed at the impact hands have in a picture.  

Thanks Megan and beautiful little girls for a lovely Sunday evening adventure.
