This post is long due- ok, it’s been less than a week, but Ana’s been on my mind all this time. Ana’s Quinceañera was like a perfect mix of A fairy tale (namely Cinderella),A Bat Mitzva, a Sweet Sixteen and a wedding day for one little girl, about to become a woman. Ana’s braces were removed in ime for the big day, and her smile sparkled with her straight white teeth- in fact, she couldn’t stop smiling, even when she was crying.
For today’s blog I picked my top favorites, for the first week. There may be more photos in the future, and the story of night being unfolded appears in the slideshow

The reason I put the Mariachi band’s photo is because they were amazing! The acoustics in the church enhanced their singing and I could feel the strings of my heart vibrate, or was that my phone? They were amazing!
