Savannah and Herriott

For those of you who don't know, my daughter Savannah has a cat named Herriott. She is a girl cat, but she is named after the author James Herriott. His stories have always been some of Savannah's favorites.

My Sister has been working on getting her photography studio opened up and she thought that some "pet portraits" might be nice to add to her collection. So, naturally, she thought of my girl and her beloved cat! (It is SOOoooo beneficial to have a sister who is a professional photographer!) I absolutely LOVE these images os Savannah. They really show her personality. She has turned into such a beautiful girl, inside and out.
I have to choose from these for an enlargement for our dining room. I have the room decorated with a B & W picture of each of the kids, so the one that I choose will need to be B & W to replace it. The frames are a pretty cherry.

The one below is Savannah's favorite.

I have never seen a pet more devoted to it's owner than Herriott is to Savannah. I swear, if Savannah was out in the ocean, that cat would swim the waves of the sea to reach her.
When did this happen? My little girl is growing up so fast!




SO which one would you choose? I think that I'll get the one Savannah likes for her room. Tough decision.
You can see more of my sister's work here at her website. Thanks again Thom for the awesome photos.
Cheers!
Melissa

I think I vote for the same one Savannah likes, but it's not as easy choice! It seems that she grew up overnight!! Beautiful pictures of your beautiful girl!!!

I love that first one with her smiling! Or the one of her kissing the cat although it doesn't as much of her. I also like that last picture, without Herriott. They are all beautiful though, you can't lose! ;-)

Hard choice. I like all of them but I guess my vote goes for teh one she picked. Very pretty girl! By the way...my Samantha was almost a Savannah.

I think the last one would be beautiful on your wall. I also like the one Savannah chose. As a matter of fact, they are all gorgeous!! That last one though, with the light on her long hair, really gets my vote. Beautiful subject, talented photographer: how can you go wrong?
Love, Mom
