family ties | sarasota, bradenton, venice family photographer

this family is dear to me - so i was super thrilled when asked to take portraits of their extended family. my oldest son has been very close friends with their little guy... so he was super excited to tag along with mom to assist me on my photo shoot. i had him assisting holding lights and everything... and he was super thrilled at the end of the shoot to run around with his buddy. it's the little things that mean so much to our kiddies- eh :)

1 year old baby portraits | sarasota bradenton baby portraits

i have had the privilege of photographing kaylee throughout her first year. it always amazes me to see how much a baby changes in their first year. all the little milestones and foundations that are built in this very first year that passes by so quickly. here are some of my favorite shots from her 12 month session where she's already a pro walker (when her shoes are off... mom told me she realized they were a size too small... poor thing). her giggles make me laugh - she has such a beautiful smile.

happy 1st birthday kaylee :)

how could i not look back at all these changes. here's kaylee 1 week before her arrival at her auntie's wedding (couldn't resist a belly shot of mom).

her newborn sweetness...

3 month beauty...

and now 12 months and just so stinkin cute :)
