Esther was thoroughly prepared for her birthday. She got a fresh cut that morning, drove all the way from Waterbury... and this was all done back in November!

I could tell she was a little tired, but I told she had to WAKE UP! So here is wide-awake Esther, looking as fly as ever! Esther's 30th Birthday ShootTide & True Studios, Norwalk, CT Esther's 30th Birthday ShootTide & True Studios, Norwalk, CT

I absolutely love this set design! Classy and elegant, but still fun. And Esther is wearing that burgundy dress! Esther's 30th Birthday ShootTide & True Studios, Norwalk, CT Esther's 30th Birthday ShootTide & True Studios, Norwalk, CT
