Sammie’s Surprise

This is so cool! Email me if you’d like to see Sammie’s slide show!

In the first picture of this post, above, Sammie is seeing her new car driving down the street. The shot above helps explain how we set it up. I came over to do “a senior shoot and family pictures.” That’s how we got Sammie outside and looking awesome for the big reveal.

And AWESOME she does look!

Her brother, Wally, was a great sport.

I really don’t think she had caught on yet that we were setting her up.

I don’t have to work too hard at “pretending” to do a photo shoot!

LOVE LOVE LOVE this one. Does Sammie need a commercial shampoo contract OR WHAT????

So once I had my camera settings like I wanted them, I gave Dan the sign to go get the gift bag.

The key.

The “OH MY GOD!”

Sammie’s mom has just driven the AWESOME car up and parked in front of the house.

So excited.

This one has a “this can’t be happening” feeling to it.

Maggy is trying to give Sammie the keys…

… But Sammie is overwhelmed. LOVE IT!

Awww, a hug for Mom.

Awww, a hug for Dad.

Drive!

Check out the little flower.

That’s my girl. 10 and 2.

Awww, a hug for car.

LOVE this one!

Isn’t it such a CUTE car????

Putting the top up.

My fave.

See? It really WAS a family shoot!

This is what happy looks like.

This is what worry looks like.

Love this one!

Looks like dancing to me.

Please drive safely, Sammie!

That’s my girl. Talk on the cell phone IN THE DRIVEWAY! Good good good.

Good good good.

Have fun! Be safe!

Sammie, you should have told me you were doing that cute little kick! So sweet of your dad to insist I be in one of the pictures too. I love this one!

Another SERIOUS fave!

CLASSIC. And by the way, not posed either (or else I might have actually FOCUSED on Dan — oh well, I love it anyway).
