I met Alex and Therol about 2 years ago. A great client of mine who has referred so much business (Thank you Judy) recommended they contact me for some photographs… and I am so glad that they did! We did a session at Centennial Park… You can view their session here. They were super cute and so much fun to photograph… so I was THRILLED with Therol contacted me about photographs with their new addition, Ethan!

He is just a little charmer! He will be turning 1 shortly…and he did such a great job, especially considering the heat that day that we shot.

Ethan and daddy!

I have to say that this is my favorite photo of the session. It is so much fun to spend time with new parents… I think I love it because I am about to head into that journey myself and I am excited, but also frightened… The photo below of Therol and Ethan honestly makes me tear up. I look at it and it makes me feel selfish for the parts of our pregnancy journey that I wanted to turn back… I just look at that image and see the  P.U.R.E.   J.O.Y.  that Therol has on her face because she loves being a mom so much. I adore it, and it is a reminder that the new chapter of our life will be scary, yes, but also the most amazing journey that Josh and I will ever take. Thank you Therol for showing me how amazing parenthood is by your simple interaction with Ethan.

He is getting ready to walk…. needs a little help right now, but I am sure that he will be cruising around in no time!

The Happy Family…

Love, love his eyes!!!!

The sign clearly said, “No Wading,” but it was hot…. and it looked fun….

Thank you Alex, Therol, and Ethan! I had such a great time with you guys. It is such a blessing to watch my clients lives grow and change. It is such a privilege to document!
