Pictures of Ellie

I never seem to notice when the light is right for portraits. But it was right at one point this past weekend when Ellie was sitting on the couch in Chanel & Trish’s living room in Portland.

I just love how pensive she is. It captures her quiet, gentle nature, I think.

  1. Of course the slightly flirtatious side-ways look of Ellie on the right, draws out the viewer more, makes us react and smile back. But the straightforward look with the slightly furrowed brow makes one see the thoughtful adult she will become. It makes us realize what complete people even 3 year-olds are. Frank and open, it scares me just a little because I see the vulnerability to diasappointment and obstacles ahead, loneliness, unrequited love and loss of love. There is depth in a straight face that a smile gratefully shines over.
