I had the pleasure to shoot this adorable almost-one-year-old this weekend with his parents. He just has the sweetest disposition and is so happy. Little Man is all boy too – he loved being tossed around by Daddy, snuggled by Mommy, and exploring his surroundings – especially when there were rocks to be touched. I have to say it felt wonderful being able to shoot outdoors again. We really lucked out and were able to enjoy a gorgeous sunny afternoon.

To his proud parents – congratulations on making such a wonderful little boy. Happy Birthday, little guy.

Can you believe that expression! Learning to walk is sooooo much fun!

He would have much rather been digging in the dirt than being in the middle of a kiss sandwich at this point.

What little boy doesn’t love being thrown up in the air by his Daddy. So cute.

I think this is my favorite photo from the session. Gorgeous Mommy and her sweet baby.

A huge “1″ balloon + a cold windy winter afternoon = one difficult shot to get. He was so cold by this point but he was such a trooper, putting up with us adults and my camera.

Just look at those lips. So cute.
