Aria is ONE!
I remember exactly, getting the call saying “I am being induced,” A little over a year ago. Away to the hospital I went to await the arrival of a precious little baby girl.
Aria is now ONE! I cannot believe it! One of the absolute GREATEST joys of my job is being able to photograph and keep up with these sweet newborns that I photograph! Aria is every bit of precious, if not more so than when we first met a little over a year ago. She still favors her father (Chris) SO much… yet she is coming into her own look too! I absolutely adore her. Of course it’s because I feel so close to her already even though it has technically been quite some time… and I’m sure she couldn’t remember me from our last session, but still I felt as if I’ve seen and have been holding her this whole time! (Heart melting as I write this 🙂 )
She was all smiles for me when we first started, she came to me with no problem at all, and overall is just the sweetest one year old! Yes our session was ridiculously humid, it is Georgia after all, but I seriously could not have asked for a sweeter little girl. She was an absolute trouper! It was muggy and hot and STICKY but she kept on keeping on. We had to let her have a break every few minutes. (WHICH IS TOTALLY normal and expected by the way.) And when the breaks didn’t work we had our trusty stuffed animals (Thanks to mom) to keep us occupied.
Although it is SO difficult for me to pick my favorites for the sneak peeks, I have to say that towards the end of our session… Even though Aria had hit her limit just about…. these images were some of my absolute FAVORITE! She was so cuddly with mom and dad. These are the images that I know will be cherished FOREVER! I see how quickly a year has passed and that soon this session like everything else will be a memory. But I know these images will help remind mom and dad exactly how Aria felt and smelled and cuddled at this age. WHERE ARE MY HEART EMOJI’S WHEN I NEED THEM! HA!
I AM SUCH A SAP!!!!!! Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
Ok I will finish before I drive anyone else crazy with my sappiness! But very quickly I want to say Chris and Kandi, thank you for letting me be a part of this journey! I LOVE seeing you as parents. It’s exactly how I knew it would be! An awesome, fun loving, calm and easy going, TEAM! Aria is going to be so thankful that she has you as parents! Keep loving each other the way you do! And most important… ENJOY EVERY SECOND WITH HER! Please enjoy your sneak peeks! Â
