Tommy Turns One!

Photographing a first birthday is equal parts documentary and celebration, and when the birthday boy is your nephew it becomes a tender, very personal project—part pride, part responsibility. First birthday sessions are all about catching candid expressions and spontaneous interactions without interrupting the day, and knowing when to step back and let everyone just be. The result is a warm, honest set of images that holds the milestone and the relationships that made his day feel like home.
