The relationships I have with my clients that allow me to document their lives over the years is one really awesome aspect of my job. Back in June 2011 I took newborn photos of Jonah when he was about a week old–fast forward to a few weeks ago when I stopped by the family home to take some new photos of Jonah, who is now a big 1 year old. We snapped these photos in the backyard during sunset. Jonah is always on the move which means that I laid flat on my stomach in the grass so that I could get some of these photos. All the while Shelby, the pug, ran around us attempting to photo bomb Needless to say we had a lot of fun during this relaxed at-home photo shoot. Jonah has an infectious giggle that had me smiling the whole time.

Here is Jonah last summer, a newborn:

And Jonah today, 1 year old.
