I heart this little girl!

I am so happy to know this kid. Ellie is an amazing little girl who also is a heart surgery surviver! She is strong and fun and has the most beautiful blue eyes that are the same shade as her mommy's. Recently she began walking while holding her parents hands, that's a BIG milestone! YAY!
I met up with her and her parents Erin and Matt for a session at Long Lake Regional Park in New Brighton. Thanks guys for the fun session! I can't wait to show you the rest of your gallery!

You might remember this from Ellie's newborn session. It's one of my all time favorites.

After the park we went back to her house for an updated version, she loves to play the keys and look at her reflection in the piano. And oh my gosh, is that ponytail ever so cute?!
