First birthdays are bittersweet days for parents. It is exciting to see their baby grow, but so much changes in the first year and it is hard to believe that just one year before the toddler now running around, saying a few words, and getting into everything was curled up in their arms as a tiny newborn. Dad has photographed Carly and Will’s daughter through her first year, starting with a newborn session, then 3 months, 6 months, and 9 months. Each time she had changed so much, had reached new milestones, and was doing new things. This week she will turn one and Carly and Will brought her over for her one year session. She had some fun eating leaves and grass outside which should have shown everyone how hungry she was! When she sat in front of her birthday cake she not only smashed it, she dove in face first! She grabbed handfuls and squished, smashed, and obliterated that cake! Dad and mom said that she might not have been the messiest cake smasher but she sure did the best job of getting to all of the cake!
Happy first birthday to a sweet little girl who has two truly wonderful and loving parents. Thank you for having us capture these special memories!
