malaiya-24wm When I first met this girl, she was about 5 years old. I can’t believe she’s graduating this year! I was so happy when her Mom (my friend) asked me to take her beautiful daughter’s senior pictures. Malaiya is a talented dancer. Having danced back in the day, I was very excited for this session because it means combining two of my favorite things – photography and dancing. It was hard for me to narrow down just a few, so please don’t mind if I overshare! malaiya-5wm malaiya-16wm malaiya-13wm malaiya-31wm malaiya-27wm malaiya-29wm malaiya-42wm malaiya-50wm malaiya-57wm malaiya-89wm malaiya-73wm malaiya-67wm malaiya-100wm malaiya-110wm malaiya-113wm malaiya-119wm malaiya-116wm malaiya-120wm malaiya-128wm malaiya-145wm malaiya-166wm malaiya-155wm malaiya-160wm malaiya-158wm malaiya-162wm malaiya-168wm malaiya-169wm malaiya-187wm malaiya-180wm malaiya-172wm malaiya-137wm Malaiya is a perfect reminder to “do what you love.” Dancing is her passion and she’ll be dancing her way through college.
