The star of the show from one of my most memorable newborn sessions, Trip, turns one soon, and what better time for some updated family photos? Trip’s mama requested a location with a shallow creek for these and luckily, I’d recently found the perfect spot in Dallas for just that. A third trimester twin belly doesn’t make it easy to crouch and squat for long like I’d typically do at a one-year session to get down on their level, so I wore clothes I didn’t mind getting wet and plopped myself down in the water right along with Trip. Not a bad way to beat the August heat!

This birthday boy flirted with me a little at first and then decided he was too cool to smile much, but we got some darling shots of this sweet family and mostly, I just wanted to capture those big blue eyes. Happy birthday, handsome boy!
