Sneak-Peek [ "Z" ]

Peoria, Illinois Children’s Photographer | Shellie Benson Photography

Hey everyone!

Well, Thanks to no power last week, of course now I’m behind again with sneak-peeks which makes me SAD since I finally got caught up!! I know I have no control over it – I wish that eased my “control-freak” mind, but its doesn’t, haha. I’m going to try and get re-caught up again this week.

THIS is Miss “Z” and I haven’t seen her in about a year and OH MY GOSH she she get so big!!!! And her curly hair??? *swoon* She’s SO adorable, I missed her!!! Now she’s a crazy wild 2  year old and I loved every moment!!!! I remember when she was just a few weeks old *tear* SOOOO good to see her so grown up and amazing ♥ Here are a few from her session – you can all see just how CUTE she is!!!!  

 Z_peek

  Seeeeeee, I wouldnt lie!! She’s a princess, isnt she?!?!?!?!! Love her!!! I still can see her little newborn face, even if she is a big girl now;)

I’m off to bed soon to rest my sleepy almost 7 months pregnant body, but at least I leave you with cuteness to enjoy for a couple days before the next Peek!! Have a wonderful week everyone!!!

xoxo ~♥Shellie (and baby Matthew Joshua!)

Isn’t she lovely! Such vibrant colors, great mix~

Dziadzie - January 27, 2010 - 5:36 pm

Zoe is one beautiful little girl and her greatest assets are her eyes. Her baby blues are just adorable as in the middle photo of her holding the “Z” block. Not everyone can capture this. It appears however that Sheelie was not only able to capture Zoe’s eyes but her very essence as well.

Michelle - January 27, 2010 - 6:03 pm

Zoe is the cutest thing ever! What a doll!!!
