Two weeks ago I posted my monthly me and mine portrait. This week our group is focusing on faceless portraits. Of course, I chose my daughter to document. She has so many different layers to who she is. One moment she wants to be grown and then the next she wants to do child-like activities. I love this kid and the different facets of who she is. I shot most of these, except for the last two, with film.
She loves playing on her pink 3DS…
She loves to do her own hair. It takes us forever to get out on most days because she’s trying to get her hair just right. She tells me that she’s too old for plats and 2 ponytails.
And, she still plays with dolls. Suzie is her favorite. She loves Suzie, matted hair and all
Sidenote: She saw this post, and wanted me to make sure that I didn’t tell anyone that she’s wearing footie pajamas, so don’t tell her that I told you, k?

i love her beautiful brown girl hair! i love her dolls textured/matted hair. and maybe most of all today…i love her footed pjs!! so cute!
I don’t know her, but I love her! I love how she merges the wanting to be grown up with still being a child. Love that she still loves her doll. Love that she must do her own hair. These are beautiful, Celeste!
I love that you captured both her grown up self and her younger side. What a sweet girl, in her pj’s with her doll.
What a great capture of the “in between” stage in a girls life. It is super sweet!
oh lawdy, I want to climb right through the screen and hug the bejeebers outta her. A freaking dorable. And Loving the flim look girl…perfectly delicious.
What a great idea for a shoot. Lovely!
love that you captured this moment in time through these images, but you never showed her face.

Oh my! I love that your images this week illustrate that struggle between being a child & growing up! Such a wonderful story you showed us about your daughter. <3
Oh, I just love these-it really captures her, but without her face, perfect.
These are so so so cute! I love that you captured little parts of her!
I love that you shot this theme with film. Great job.
love all these shots, and love that she still wants to play with dolls and wear footie pajamas, and at the same time is worrying about her hair being just right!!
Beautiful perspective of your daughter. I love seeing all the images you capture of her. It reminds me I need to be doing that more!
