Owen Turns One!

A year ago this little man came into the world just in time to celebrate Thanksgiving.  Back then he was just a tiny, wrinkly newborn.  Now he’s grown into a cheerful and active little boy.  I’ve had the pleasure of photographing him a few times now, and I don’t think I’ve ever seen him in a bad mood.  It’s all smiles with this little guy, which just makes my job so much easier.  Owen is definitely a kiddo on the move, however, crawling and exploring as fast as his little legs will move!
That’s alright – we tied some birthday balloons onto that crawler for a little extra cuteness!This isn’t your traditional family photo, but I just love it anyway.

Bailey made it into just one shot during this shoot.  She’s a sweet pup, but capturing the attention of a dog and a one year old at the same time can be a bit challenging…After our fun with the balloons at the park was over, we snuck back to Matt and Kayla’s house for a little cake smash.  You can’t call a one year photo shoot complete if someone doesn’t end up covered in frosting!

Happy Birthday Owen, and congratulations to Matt and Kayla for surviving their first year as parents!
