Six Years Old | Bay Area Children’s Photographer

My daughter is six years old.

Yesterday, I was asked by an acquaintance from work, “Is that your little sister?” Hehe, that was great. Most people just bluntly say, “You’re too young to have a kid!” I know! But I’m truly loving it. When girls (and some boys) are little, all they do is play with dolls and barbies and dream of growing up and having kids. Now I’m living the dream!

She’s an amazing girl and I’m extremely proud of her. Our conversations have deepened and our friendship has strengthened in the last six years. She’s truly the best thing that’s ever happened to me.

I took her out for her first mini-shoot since her birthday and this was the result. She’s BEAUTIFUL!

  • These are all awesome! I agree with Ang, and L-O-V-E the hair!

  • These are beautiful pictures! She is such a gorgeous little girl. I’m getting teary eyed just thinking that Hayden will be 6 in the not too far away future. She could totally model btw…

  • She really is an amazing gift.

    Can I somehow get a couple of these from you? I’d love to frame them when we move to our new house one day soon. Excellent photos, Shalina. Amazing daughter you have.

  • These took my breath away! Yes, Katie is a very gifted and special one! I love her to pieces! The crimped hair and blue eyes are stunning!
