8 Year Old Birthday Girl Portraits in Charlottesville

This precious little girl broke tradition for her birthday portraits and chose to have her session at UVA this year (she had opted for Clifton Inn venue the three preceding years). Knowing her strong-willed personality, I certainly didn’t want to argue with her! I admire her confidence and love that she has the perfect combination of determination and thrill-seeking. She has brought such joy, laughter, and excitement into this world!

“I’m gonna live a crazy dream, Impossible as it may seem; Doesn’t matter what the future brings I’m gonna live a crazy dream…I wanna hold the whole wide world, Right here in my open hands, Maybe I’m just a little girl, A little girl with great big plans” –Mindy Gledhill
