It’s always bittersweet when a baby planner turns one…but Carter has had quite the year, and I’m so glad I got to spend it with him!  I know mom is probably dying for this sneak peek, she’s a self-proclaimed MZP blog stalker…and well this shoot was Thursday, and waiting two days is an eternity, I know!!

Carter’s mama knew she wanted to be out in a field with pretty light, and Carter braved the coldest morning the of year thus far for the session.  He loved the tall grass and my chair…he was so sad when I packed it up for the day.  He could not have been sweeter for the last session in his year.  It’s been a honor capturing his first year.  Thank you mom & dad…I just love you all.

Got to meet up with Grant and his parents this morning for a session celebrating his 2nd birthday!  I can’t believe how big he is getting – I first had the chance to photograph him when I was just starting out in 2007, when he was about 4 months old.  Now, he is a walking, talking, gorgeous little man!  He wasn’t too sure about spending time away from mom during the shoot, but he loved the toy gun I brought, and playing peek-a-boo got me some great smiles.  Love him!  Happy {early} birthday Grant!

I love firsts…there is something so special about getting to share them with a client!  Today were the first sessions of the year for me…a newborn session – his first official session and a first birthday session!  So much fun!

Hope the moms love their little sneak peek!

Remember Mister A – it has been a year since I last photographed this handsome boy!  He was back today for his two year session…I cannot believe he is two!  We had a lot of fun exploring the train station…I love boys!

Here’s a sneak peek for mom and grandma…good luck tomorrow guys!

Meet Miss M…almost one year old, and gifted with the biggest brown eyes!  She was a trooper at our early morning session!  Such a doll!  Wait until you see the cake smash pictures!

Here’s a little sneak peek for mom and nana!
