The B&W imags of mums first cuddle are the best for me, I want to cry just seeing that happiness in her face, it's really powerful. And how teeny tiny !

It's not your typical family portrait, but I loved it. I loved this entire session. It was sooooo hot that day and I think anyone can understand how tough it can be to get 4 kids to all cooperate at the same time, but you wouldn't believe the kind of images they gave us!

Even cooler, remember her birth? I'm always so amazed when I get to see my birth babies while they're growing up. It means the world to me.

So, congrats to the A fam! It's a much deserved honor because I know you guys wore yourselves out at our session.

What does this mean? And since she just celebrated her first birthday, let's share more from her amazing session:

A look back before she was even born and then as a brand new baby. No matter how many first year sessions I do, I'm ALWAYS blown away by how quickly time passes and how much these babies change.

Stephanie Lyell says:

so I'm coming out of the dark and admiting that I am a blog stalker. This post was so beautiful that I just had to post a compliment, every photo seemed better than the last as I clicked through them. I love the colors in the first and second, and I love the one with her fingers in her mouth, and the one with the yellow flowers...I love all of them. You have a lot of talent, thanks for the inspiration :)
