Reaching Out! By: Priscilla A Martin I reached out to Ava’s mom and had asked her if it was possible to do a photoshoot with Ava and she got back to me and said “Absolutely. We’d love to.’’ When we got to Los Angeles, we had set a date to meet with Ava and her mom, January 13th, on a beach in Malibu. Ava was very professional and sweet and so was her sister, Lexy. It was their first photoshoot that they did together. We all had a good time shooting them and they were even talking to me about everything. Lexy was recently in The Little Mermaid and Ava was recently in the movie Insidious: The Last Key and you can also find her on the new Disney show, Sydney to the Max. It’s a great family show. Ava plays the role of Olive in the show. I can’t wait to meet up with Ava the next time we are in Los Angeles. She was honestly the sweetest person I’ve ever encountered!
