Alyssa was two years old at the time the reference photograph was taken. At that age, she heavily identified with monkeys, as her love of climbing indicated. Here, she perches on the window sill quite comfortably in the position she and monkeys know well, perusing casually the images of what she will become.

I feel like this one is the best.
Well, its subject was just so inspiring.
Angela, as with all your portraits, you capture your subject’s emotion, one can’t help but smile and imagine what thoughts your subjects hide behind those beautiful faces. Bravo!
