One of the joys of a “grow with me” package (a set of three photo shoots in the baby’s first year) is witnessing the amazing development that occurs in a baby’s first year.  It is such an honor to document a child’s first year.  From the very first session with Miss Molly Shea, I knew we were going to get some wonderful images.  She did not disappoint.  I just hope she forgives us for the cake incident…

Big props to Molly’s mom for always coming up with some great outfits.  At the end is a shot I grabbed of Jack.  He was so kind to offer to sing to Molly when we needed her to smile.  Molly sure is lucky to have such a great big brother!
