I've had the privilege of photographing Oliver over the last year. He was only three weeks old when I first met him. He melted my heart instantly the first time we met and continued to do so each and every session after. It's so fun to watch my little clients grow, especially when you know them from birth.

The evening of their session arrived, and it was another beautiful day here in Southwest Missouri. I loved being able to leisurely walk around the park with The Carlson Family. They are always so laid back and easy to work with. The boys are absolutely adorable and always keep us entertained. Oliver isn't the only one who has changed and grown since our last session together. His older brothers Wyatt and Ian have grown up so much too. I love watching them interact with each other. You can instantly tell how much they adore their baby brother and Oliver feels the same way. Oliver lights up as soon as they start talking to him. Wyatt and Ian are always so helpful during their sessions. They do such a great job at being my "assistants”. It never fails; they can always get Oliver to smile the biggest smiles. I can't say it enough .... they are the sweetest little family!

I have so many favorites from their fall session. I loved working with The Carlson Family over the last year and I hope that we will be seeing even more of them in the future. Without further ado here are just a few of my favorite images from Oliver's One Year Session. Enjoy and Happy Thursday!
