I'd have to say that one my favorite things about being a photographer is watching my littlest clients grow up in front of my camera. I was so happy to meet with Baby H and his parents last weekend for their third family session. The first time I photographed them was exactly a year ago, Baby H was a smiley six month old with electric blue eyes and a downy tuft of hair.
It's always amazing to me how quickly time passes and the babies grow up into these little bundles of energy, ever exploring and interested, keeping their parents in constant motion and wonder. I suppose Baby H really isn't a baby anymore, but a little boy with a headful of curls and two fast feet that keep Mom and Dad on their toes!
We met at beautiful Fishkill Farms in upstate New York, definitely take a trip up and explore their orchards! Thank you Jenn and John and H for a lovely visit and for allowing me the honor to freeze time for your family one more time.
I love this image, it looks like he's tap dancing, he's so joyful!
And he's off!
Jenn and John, I LOVE this shot of you!!!
And I LOVE this one of Baby H... I get all the heartbreakers!
This moment is so special, so quiet and thoughtful... One of my favorites.
I hope you enjoy them!
Adorable family! He is going to be a little heartbreaker. Fun location too.

These are great Meredith! You seem to have really captured the love a parent has for their child.
I also love your images in previous posts with very shallow depth of field (the head shot of the bride, and the other one of the little boy looking up at you from the N family in particular). Great stuff!
