What a cute skirt! I love the classic looking bow on it. The stitching on the leather suitcase also adds to the effect. Very sweet.

So breathtaking! I love how she is standing in flowers. She makes me think of a mini Mary Poppins:)
I have no CC, this shot is stunning.

This is beautiful! She just looks like such an elegant lady.The flowers are beautiful. That parasol was perfect. I looked at your others and they were beautiful too- this one was the most "vintage" though so great pick. For me the non-pro, what exactly IS magic hour?

Oh this is absolutly beautiful! I love her serious expression and the umbrella and the luggage. Heck, I love it all. She looks like she is off to catch the train.

You just love that field dont you! I would too great background.

The umbrella and skirt are almost like 50's clothing so it is vintage with a modern twist! She is adorable for sure! Fantastic shot!

Magic hour!!!!! oh magic hour how i LOVE thee! magic hour is the lst hour of sunlight, and as it set often there is a thin cloud line it tucks under and then you have PERFECT uninterupted light!!!! she is looking directly into the sun in a lot of these!!! try shooting then, its so easy and fantastic!

thanks for the comments guys! thanks!
