lauren+steve+henry | Columbus Family Photography

This beautiful family is no stranger to my blog! I was delighted when i heard from lauren that they wanted to schedule a family photography session around Henry’s first birthday. I haven’t seen his sweet face since he was a super squishy adorable newborn! I have to admit i’m always a little nervous before any session, and sessions with littles are no different.. who knows how they are going to react to a stranger with a big camera in front of their face. but henry was a natural in front of the camera! he was laughing and smiling from the minute we all got out of the cars. I could not get enough of him. And watching the three of them together, the cutest. He loves his mommy and daddy. here’s a peek at some of my favorites from the session, it was super hard to narrow it down!

i mean, all these leaves and his adorable little sweater?? i’m dying over the cuteness.

you guys, thank you so much for trusting me again to capture this time in your family’s life. i adore you all. give henry a squeeze for me! xxJBZ
