A Baby's First Year in Photos

In January of 2012, a elementary school friend contacted me about taking her expectant grandson's photos once he was born. Of course, I said yes I would!

Aiden was born in April 2012 and the planning began. The first time meeting little Aiden, it stormed horribly and our outdoor session moved to his Mimi's living room. He did not want anything to do with having his photograph taken. After about two hours, we decided to reschedule. 

His first official photo shoot, he was just a little shy of 3 months old (top left). Needless to say, he did great and his parents joined in on some of the photos as well. In October, we met up to take his six month photos. Wow, he was not a baby anymore! Full of energy and full of laughter, that was his photo shoot at 6 months (top right).

In February, his mimi and I began planning his nine month photo shoot. My trusty assistant (a.k.a my daughter) got props together and off we went to a new location. Just as his six month photo shoot had been, he was full of energy and wanted to play with anything within reach. He had a blast riding (standing) in the vintage stroller we used in his photos.

We met recently for his 12 month photos. And true to history, this time, he was not crazy about it like the first time we met. (bottom left) We were able to get a few shots, but his mimi and I decided to reschedule. 

Aiden has grown so much in a year and we have been blessed to be a part in recording his growth in photographs. With his big, gorgeous blue eyes, he will surely knock some unsuspecting young lady off her feet one day when he is much, much older of course! The camera has loved his eyes during this past year.

Stay tuned! Perhaps we will watch him grow over the next few years.
