Today’s family story shares four years of photos of adorable Lee and Ivy. Our first shoot together was at Lee’s first birthday; his parents had planned a family lunch to celebrate, and we started with a few family photos and a cake smash before his grandparents, aunts, and uncles arrived.

The following fall, we did a family shoot on Columbia’s campus after Lee turned two:

The next fall, I photographed Lee’s third birthday. We started with a few family photos before his family and friends arrived for his party. Lee was so excited about becoming a big brother!

And so excited to receive a spider man birthday card! So cute.

Baby Ivy was born last February; we did her newborn shoot when she was two weeks old. As soon as I walked into their house, Lee came running up to show me his camera.

When Lee turned 4 this past August, we did family photos at the beach where their family was spending the summer with grandparents.

And finally, Ivy’s first birthday!
