I’ve photographed this little girl FOUR times. Ok, so maybe she wasn’t technically photographed during her mama’s maternity session, but she was certainly the reason for the first session with these guys. What a HUGE compliment it has been to capture their first year together as a family. Each time Amy emails me to set up another session, I’m flattered and honored. I can only hope that they’ll continue to enjoy their JFP experience and email me again when Stella turns two next year. Maybe even when they add more kiddos to the bunch? 😉

For fun, let’s look back at the previous three sessions with Amy, John and Stella…

Beautiful mama-to-be. Amy was such a pretty preggo subject! 🙂

Then miss Stella arrived…

Then miss Stella grew like a bad weed and before I knew it, she was a happy, smiley, sitting six-month old…

And now she’s over a year old! It’s hard for me to believe how fast the past year has gone, so I can imagine how her parents are feeling. Like I say to all my clients and friends who having fast-growing babies, “It’s time to have another one!” 🙂

We started Stella’s one-year portraits at The Cupcakerie, a super cute, super pink cupcake shop in downtown Morgantown. Stella didn’t dive into the cupcakes as much as we had hoped, but her little-girl cuteness and calm demeanor made up for it.

Pretty little girl! Her smile is a little ornery, don’t ya think? Don’t worry, mom and dad, I think ornery is a good look. 😉

A little change of scenery for this curious little one…

There’s just something about this picture that makes it one of my favorites from the session…

Little-girl cuteness!

Amy and John, you guys totally rock those glasses!

Perfect mama-daughter moment. 🙂

Amy, John and Stella…what can I say?? Having photographed your family FOUR times has been such an honor and I thank you for continuing to bring me back to capture your little growing family. The past year has gone by so quickly…it probably won’t be long until we meet again. Enjoy your sweet little girl…she’s quite a cutie!
