Seven years ago I met a family when they brought their daughter in for baby portraits. During her baby plan there were some laughs, a few cries, but always beautiful images. This is one of the things I love most being a portrait photographer … over the past seven years I have been able to watch her grow and provide her parents with the memories that they can hold on to.
Now she has a little brother! The journey began again for the baby’s first year and oh what a fun year it has been. Unlike the first time we walked down this path, their family is now like my own. I even know the grandparents! Every few months when they would come to the studio it was like getting together with old friends, especially during hockey season.
I had so much fun this year … thank you again for trusting me with your family’s most important portraits and memories. I can’t wait for this album to arrive so I can present it to you!
p.s. are you sure you aren’t having any more children??
Nathaniel’s one year portrait album made me smile, I hope it brings joy to your heart as well!
