I’ve known Molly for a very long time; we met through our passion for scrapbooking (she, too, is a Creative Memories consultant) but didn’t really get to know each other until she experienced the loss of her daughter. Molly knows the importance of savoring moments – she’s got a drive for it that matches my own! I loved her session idea… to capture their youngest son’s first birthday.
On his birthday. As they celebrated together as a family.
It was pouring rain when I first arrived but there was no way I could reschedule… it was his birthday after all! Thankfully, it slowed down to a trickle and we were able to sneak outside for at least a few shots before the mosquitos totally overwhelmed us. 
Here is a peek at the rest of our time together:
I so LOVE what Molly has done with her walls. Her family images are everywhere and displayed so creatively!
Her boys are a joy to be around… so expressive. And really, really, REALLY wanting to show their little brother the birthday ropes.
And then there was cake!
It was a pleasure stepping into your life for the evening, Molly. Thank you SO, SO MUCH for the invitation!
I love when parents let their little ones just go at cake with their hands! An adorable shoot, Tina!
I love them!! Great job, Tina! Thank you so much for coming into our home and capturing these precious moments with Baby Cooper!
