Worthy Women: Dani, with Bella

16 AUGUST 2025 · 1 MIN READ

Dani worried that she was not “perfect” any more. Her children see it differently. A mother and daughter session, and the moment she saw her portraits.

I am so excited to finally be able to blog this beaut of a shoot! I may have randomly blurted out this fabulous fact while Dani was still selecting the images she wanted printed during her reveal. I’m in love with every single image.

When Dani and I discussed this shoot, she was excited about being able to get beautiful photos with her children, but then was concerned about not being “perfect” anymore. But she’s perfect to her children (and husband)! I was so glad that she decided to do the shoot, especially after I saw her face when she saw her portraits for the first time.

Isn’t it time that you booked a session for yourself? Or for you and the family?
