Sniffle, sniffle... I can't believe Roman is already one! As his mom would say, isn't it horrible?! I've been so so so so so lucky to photograph this little family over the last year and can honestly say that they are among some of my favorite people ever. Kirstie better get knocked up asap so I can take photos of the the next little munchkin :)















It all started with a big ol' belly:

Then we had the little guy... his skin was (and still is) just flawless. He and his little sidekick, Dude, are best friends.

And then something horrible happened! He started getting bigger! Why can't kids grow slower? Here's Roman all adorable at 4 months:

8 months old:

And, finally, one whole year! Aren't they just the most gorgeous family?

I love their love of color!



Walking like a champ!


One of my favorites of the day :)

I love his expression here... apparently he was getting bored of my tricks.


I love these random old doors next to this red wall!

So sweet....

Thanks for looking! Happy Monday!!!

I can't believe that it is four sessions later! You make me love my family more and more each time. It is amazing how perfectly you capture everything. (Minus the temper tantrum and chaos.) I am glad you love because we LOVE you! You are stuck with us. Baby No. 2, graduations, weddings....clients for life! Kisses to you and the hubby!!
(02.28.11 @ 03:25 PM)I LOVE these pictures! Granted you had some of the best subjects ever, but really they are amazing! I have a 7 month old that might be in need of some pictures soon.. Would you mind sending me a price break down for your different packages? Thanks!! Chelsea Schilling (schilling7@gmail.com)
(02.28.11 @ 03:42 PM)Awwww! I love how funky each of their sessions were. Is this last one at The Lab? I have a one year old session planned there soon. That's the only place I can think of with all that color!
