Zoe's Ballet Shoot at the IMA

I have truly enjoyed watching this sweetie pie over the last few years. I've been thinking about why I have enjoyed watching Zoe so much lately (because I knew I would be writing this post - and I hate writing- but it's good for me) and I think it's partly because of her age and partly because she's Zoe. Zoe impresses me so much because she is kind, smart, interesting, confident, grounded and a beautiful, talented dancer. I really enjoyed getting to know her more at our shoot!

Nutcracker 2010 - Indianapolis School of Ballet

I absolutely LOVE taking ballet pictures!! Nutcracker picture day is especially fun because the kids work so hard to be in it. They have to audition and participate in a rigorous rehearsal schedule. Picture day is usually the first time they get to try on their costumes and there is so much excitement! There are lots of big smiles and everyone is bouncing around. It was very hard to pick which ones to include...
