As a Vernon Baby Photographer, there is nothing I love more than capturing a family at so many exciting stages of their lives together.   I first met Liam’s parents, Winnie and Rob, when they were expecting little Liam.

It was a blustery but beautiful day at Kekhuli Bay when I captured their beautiful maternity session and that’s hard to believe that is a little over a year ago now.

Shortly after that, I was able to see them again at my studio in the Caetani Centre for Liam’s newborn session. This family photo of this gorgeous family of three and the one of him all curled up in is night cap are still some of my favorites I’ve captured! Mom and dad were so proud of their new little man and it showed as they watched me capture him, so little and new.

Now a year later, Mr. Liam is growing into a curious, smiley toddler who loves to scoot (rather than crawl) and has the cutest little smile and dimples. I wanted to take him home with me.

We were experiencing some record heats for June when we did his session, so although we had talked about going back to Kekhuli Bay for his session and cake smash, it was simply too hot. Liam and his cake would have melted!

Instead, we found a gorgeous and shady spot close to my home (so the cake could be refrigerated until it was needed) and had lots of fun capturing this super sweet little man! He was feeling rather serious that day but we still got some smiles and personally I LOVE a serious cute face!

Although his birthday cake at home seemed fun to smash, Liam wasn’t sure about a repeat event. It took lots of encouragement to even touch the icing but in the end, we got him at least interested enough to try it. I adore the final image of protest as he tells us all he is done!

Thanks for sharing your first birthday with me Liam and for driving in from Salmon Arm to see me again! I can’t wait to see you again for another family session in the future!
