Double Digits | Mom of a Ten Year Old | New Jersey Photographer

May 13, 2022 by Dawn Pecorella Curto

Double Digits here she comes….

Somehow I became the mom of a TEN year old. Not sure how it happened but those years flew by as well as stood still all at the same time. I feel like I blinked and she is 10 but I also feel like she’s been here forever….if that makes any sense at all! lol

My favorite person in the whole wide world is now DOUBLE DIGITS!

She LOVES horses, rainbows and interior design. She can’t decide if she wants to be a horse riding teacher, an interior decorator or own her own candle shop selling candles in the shape of animals lol, when she grows up. She is a little entrepreneur….always trying to think of things to create and sell lol. From lemonade stands, to selling her paintings in front of the house, to making mini envelopes and cards…she is always dreaming up something she wants to create. She actually did start her own biz…..Rainbows and Whiskers…..and is starting to take over my office space with all her biz stuff! lol

She is sweet, kind as well as very stubborn….oh and messy. Very messy. She wants to have her friend Teagan come over to give her tips on how to stay neat lol. She has her own unique style….don’t try to buy her any clothes or shoes without her approval because they will sit in her closet untouched.

She still has a love of Unicorns and Fairies and is now very much into all things mystical. We frequent the gem shop often so she can pick out what crystal or magic book she wants. One of her favorite being “The Little Witch’s Book of Spells”….hmmmmm wonder who she takes after in the magic department ;)

I am beyond honored to call this sweet little girl my daughter. Jade we LOVE you and hope you have the most amazing 10th birthday ever!

And of course it wouldn’t be a true Jade photoshoot if I she didn’t let her silliness shine through ;)

From the warm golden light of their maternity session a couple months back to quiet snuggly nursery moments 💛

So grateful to be invited back to capture another chapter of their story. ✨

Cake + giggles + a whole lot of mess? Yes, please. 🎂💛

Cake smash sessions are pure joy—messy, sweet, and full of one year old personality. Whether we’re outdoors in a local park or keeping it simple in front of a backdrop in Morristown
And just like that… 7th grade is in the books!
Still lovin’ the Joe Bros, adding Morgan Wallen to the playlist (every second of the day), and dreaming up big plans with horses and interior design.
Proud of our girl—oh and of course
Wildly cute curls, nonstop giggles,  the sweetest good boy and the kind of joy you just can’t fake. 🥰
Senior pics don’t have to be awkward—promise. We hit downtown Morristown for Griffin’s senior session and kept it super laid back. His chill vibe came through in every shot.

If you’re dreading senior photos, this is your sign
Fact: If we’re doing an in-home newborn session and you’ve got a cute front porch… we’re 100% using it! As soon as I pulled up, I was like yep—we’re making this adorable spot part of the session!

Another fact: I
