Fitton Green Natural Area is one of my favorites, and this family’s too.
Once she “escaped” her backpack, she ran over time after time to check out my camera. That’s a dream for a children’s photographer. 
I have a second camera that I use. She saw it as irresistible and would run over to try it out. I think it’s in her destiny to be a photographer. 
Usually if kids try to take a picture, the way I have my camera set up to focus makes it so they never get a clear picture. It’s a two button process to get the focus right. But she tried it anyway and hit the jackpot. She was pretty pleased with herself. One note about the photo below, which she took, is that I wavered on whether or not to show it. It’s not my best photo, especially since I’m in my grubbies. But knowing that I’d be taking photos of a toddler, that means I’m on the ground a bit of the time, so I had decided to put on my work clothes. 
Toddlers have a 20 second attention span. She threw that out the window and drug her whale nearly to the coast and back. 
Snacks. Good stuff to bring for a gal who doesn’t stop moving!
