Happy Birthday, Amelia!

Amelia turns one TODAY! And she had her first taste of cake a few days ago in anticipation of this special day. It is so fun to meet these little ones and see their personalities really start to shine. I had the honor of photographing Amelia as a newborn, so to see her now crawling, standing, and even starting to talk is so awesome. While Amelia was a little shy at times for her portrait session, there were a few things that brought out her smile: parents Amie and Matt, a favorite stuffed snowman, and some vanilla frosting. Also, I think having a dog or two around the house as your toddler is growing up is always a good idea -- we had a built-in clean up crew this day. ;) Here are just a few images from my morning with Amelia.
