I have been capturing lifestyle moments for this family since their first little one was born and can’t believe we are now celebrating baby brother’s first birthday. I’m always so glad to hear from them but when we were planning his session and Mom wanted to include a lifestyle cake smash I was so excited. A beautiful baby with rosy cheeks, some delicious morning light AND a cake smash? It’s a photographer’s dream!!! I have to confess, though, blueberries are his favorite and he was more interested in them than the cake.

We grabbed the morning light outside on their swing before his blueberry and cake breakfast and, gosh, I do love a good swing session!!! They are so fun and kiddos will give you such genuine, heart warming smiles and belly laughs. These guys, their swing and the light did not disappoint.

Last but certainly not least are these sweet, secret brotherly moments. These images are just melting my heart, especially as a mom of three boys.

This session was just a dream and I love they are a new chapter in their family’s story. Mom and Dad are really good about hanging their prints on the wall so, when I visit them, I can see their pictures telling their story in their home over the last few years and I just love knowing I was a small part in that.
