Just over two years ago, I took pictures of one of my oldest and dearest high school friend’s first child. I still love the shot of their baby girl touching her father’s face…Dad is just beaming.
Two years later and that baby girl is now a big sister and I got to photograph them as a family of four. She has already taking after her mother, who is a talented piano player and singer. The connection between father and daughter is still as strong as those first days.
It is amazing to see that mother and son have just as strong of a connection as father and daughter. I loved documenting those private moments of the beginning of their relationship. My favorite shot is where he is giggling as mommy is smiling from above.
Of course the transition to two can be a little bumpy for the oldest…which is why having grandparents around to give that extra attention is so wonderful!
Congratulations to my wonderful friend and your newly expanded family. I am so honored that you picked me to capture these early, precious moments. XOXOXO
Baby is so sweet! Mom has got to be dying over the photo with her son’s big smile! As a mom of a toddler who loves to plunk away at the piano, those really pulled at my heartstrings.

Thanks so much for the love ladies. This shoot was a lot of fun and I was so happy to have so many images to give my dear friend.
Megan…I think I may have a slight obsession with kids on swings. I should probably do a blog post on all the different swing shots. It is a great representation of childhood…no matter the age.
Carrie P…the mom and smiling baby is one of my favorites. I just love his expression and the joy on mom’s face.
These are great! So sweet. I love the last one of the 4 of them.
Fabulous work, what a wonderful memory for this beautiful family.
