It all started over a year ago when I saw Kim on the street, stopped my bike abruptly, hopped off and said something along the lines of “Hi. Ummm. You’re pregnant. Can I photograph you?” The worst sales pitch in history of sales, right? Well, to my surprise, she said yes!
This is the second time I have photographed a first birthday where I had the pleasure of working with the family over the course of the first year of the little one’s life. These events are so awesome, but kind of sad (for me) at the same time. I have seen Drexel from when he was brand spanking new, to when he started to have that look of wisdom I see so often in his eyes, to this party where he was walking around, giggling, and putting all kinds of treats in his mouth! The sad part is, now that this first year of photographing them every three months is over, I won’t be seeing them as much. Hopefully I will get to shoot his second birthday party next year (hint, hint 🙂 )
We went to Ward’s Berry Farm in Sharon, MA to celebrate with Drexel’s friends, both big and small. It was a blast! There was a hay ride, some strawberry picking, Drexel playing with friends, and of course a few cupcakes that Drexel got a hold of (maybe only about 15% of which ended up in his mouth!)
I can’t say enough about how much I enjoyed working with these folks. Kim and JT have always been so kind on our numerous photo sessions, and Drexel, well, the way he looks at me sometimes, I still think he’s trying to figure me out. 🙂 Between all his giggles, he gets these moments of stillness and wisdom… It’s awesome! If only he had the words to teach me the meaning of life!
Anyway, Kim, JT, Drexel, and all the wonderful folks I met at the birthday party, it was a delight working with you!!
