I am honored when I have the chance to photograph the new beginnings and milestones of a growing family. Each new addition gives me more moments, more love, and more memories to lock in time for the family to reminisce over forever. It seemed just like yesterday that I was asked to capture the new life of one of my incredible families of five, and now she has turned one!
Mom asked for something vintage and minimal to compliment a crystal-beaded headband and a focus of grey with the family. The simplicity of a mirror reflection turned out to be a favorite of mine from this year.
Then in the blink of an eye, one year rolls around and we played with the color pink in a Bolingbrook park. We worked with the mirror once again and we brought out some smiles using bubbles and balloons.
In between some one-year-old tears, we caught the genuine affection that this family has for each other in so many colorful images.
I look forward to capturing this family’s milestones for many years to come!
