been wanting to do this for awhile…
would like to have a pic of her in my wedding dress every year.
so, a little late, but here’s my girl in mommy’s dress at one year old:
…and the dress was so huge, there’s no way i could have gotten the entire thing in without her swimming like a widdle tiny fish in it…no, not even fish…plankton.
…and i love how she looks like she’s smoothing out the satin in this one.
…so, how cool would it be for her wedding someday to send this out as a save-the-date-card?
oh, for peter’s sake…i’m planning her wedding and she’s one. i’ll stop.
…enjoying the it’s only-gotten-better-since-that-day-of-wedded-bliss things. ~k
The stuff of dreams. Can you fathom…more important, can Brett…there is a little boy out there who is toddling toward her waiting heart. I wonder where he is? I wonder what he’s like? A cute widdle guy wearing little shorts and tee, exploring everything within reach. But then, maybe she’ll be just like her mom. In that case, he’s in the Fifth Grade and has a cell phone already. Hmmmmm.
okay, that made me laugh.
LOve your dad’s comment. Hey she can come hang out for a day with my fifth graders and see if anyone strikes her fancy. That is too weird:) Love the save the date cards and I love that she will grow up with these amazing pictures to look back on. What a lucky girl!!
AMAZING! I love I was there for the photo shoot! I just love Lainey Love so much! I love that our little relationship has blossomed! She is a jem!
Ahahahaha, you’re already planning her wedding, that is so funny! But I love that idea of taking a picture in your dress every year – so cute!!
i love them! love the idea of the save the date cards too…you know if you start planning her wedding now just think of all the time you will save her in the future. she will thank you i’m sure. 😉
I LOVE THESE pics…i love the one where she is smoothing out the dress too..sooo cute!
i have always wanted to do this, but i was going to do a bathing suit, think i did once…ah, wedding dress??? Yes, much better!!! Beautiful!
LOL LOL so much on you planning her wedding already…does it surprise me tho…NOT SO MUCH!!!
ummm, hello, Beckham doesn’t have a cell phone yet?! 🙂
Lainey Darwish-OMG that is crazy to see in black and white!
Oh that last one is beautiful – something about the way the light falls into the folds, and even the shading around her neck/shoulders – it’s just so real, like I could reach out and touch her…
and DON’T STOP – the dreaming is the WHOLE FUN of having girls.
one last peek before bed, bottom one is my fav. i think it deserves a blow up for the wall next to mommy in her wedding dress. she looks like she knows exactly what she’s doing.
O.K. That is just brilliant. Amazing. Your creativity amazes me. All you Crydermans. WOW. She looks so cute and the last picture is my favorite. This blog makes me so happy. Thanks for sharing.
Precious idea, Kelle! I’m digging out my wedding dress just to look at after seeing these pics.
And on the Save the Date card to have the message very simple…just: I’ve been dreaming of this day all of my life. Makes me cry.
wow….What a beautiful idea and picture. Lainey sure is a lucky girl and such a little princess in your wedding gown.
I love this idea! And love that you are thinking about a save the date card. ha. My favorite photo is the bottom one too….they are great. Some of your photos, like these, have such a universal, dreamy appeal. Have you ever thought about selling photos to stock photography? Maybe you don’t want little Lainey all out and about on people’s calendars and such but you have a gift for capturing what is near and dear to human’s hearts.
oh, these are FABULOUS!!
I love the last one! CUTE!
Oh this is just precious! Have you been doing this every year?
