Whenever i had a camera up to my eye, she would find me, even from an early age. She was 8 in the B&W image and is now almost 24.
Of course I love her! Wouldn't you?

Thanks for viewing.
Mark

You are truly blessed Mark

Prejudiced or not, Mark. She was and IS beautiful! It's not looking good for me as far as grandchildren go, so I will live vicariously through your beautiful photos! You are, indeed, a lucky man!!!

Fabulous radiant smile (both images)
At 23?
Gorgeous tasseled tresses...
Stunning Fashion Editorial pose dynamic...

And yet no diamond on her left hand ring finger Mark?
Serious Alert here... Please be prepared for a Wedding Event

If/when so I would highly recommend
Professional Techniques for the Wedding Photographer – by George Schaub (Author)
I have his January 1, 1985 version, studied it from cover to cover...
https://www.amazon.com/Professional-Techniques-Wedding-Photographer-George/dp/0817456015
It's a God Send for someone in your situation.
Thankfully George isn't trying to sell Kit, nothing but the facts and oh my goodness George certainly covers Wedding events with superb skill and knowledge.

I've deployed his wisdom time and time again...
Trust me, shooting a Wedding Event is akin to herding cats in the rain...

As a bridal makeup artist I get to deal with the bride and her maids while they are sober BEFORE the event...
As a Wedding Photographer I have had to deal with inebriated boisterous wedding families and guests far too often!

You've been warmed so please be prepared and know your kit well!
(btw, having a second shooter is an absolute must, not simply an option)...

Wishing you much joy and success with your granddaughter's journey
Thank you so much for sharing those endearing images...
