A new year with a growing family.

A first birthday party.

A wedding anniversary.

With such a crazy year and a half, it was with a joyful heart that we got to celebrate all of the things with this McHale crew! I loved getting to hang out with Eddie, Christa, and the fam for their family session. This one was extra special for me, since it was the first session we did since I was asked to join the McHale family (for those of you who may not know, Eddie is Jon’s brother). So that means I got to photograph my nephews for the first time at this session! Yay for growing family 🙂

Not only did we celebrate the entire McHale family, we also took some special cake smash photos of Oliver for his ‘wild one’ first birthday! I can’t believe he is already a year old. It was just about a year ago that we got to document Oliver’s arrival, and it was so fun to capture him now at this age! With his ‘Oliver scoot’ getting very close to walking. His precious red-haired mohawk.

And we figured why not keep the happiness and love going, with a mini anniversary session for Eddie and Christa! I loved when Christa asked, I just want to do something fun and goofy with Eddie. I think you both nailed it with the airplane arms <3

Love you guys!
