JJ is one lucky little man. I loved meeting him at home when he was just a few days fresh and witnessing all the love and joy surrounding his arrival. Nearly a year later those emotions are heightened and sweetened by the fact that he’s growing so quickly. He can nearly run already and dad can’t wait to play sports with him while mom is enjoying his emerging personality. And everyone who knows him just falls deeper in love everyday. Luckily for us, JJ’s parents invited us back to capture him during his birthday week, first on his actual birthday for some playtime & sweet portraits and then back again on his birthday party day when his day’s proximity to St. Patrick’s would serve as the creative inspiration behind all of his lucky details. Surrounded by adoring older cousins he tasted his cake through sleepy eyes and there was a lot of laughter, love and picture-taking. All I can say is with JJ in the picture life is pretty sweet. Happy Birthday JJ!
