happy birthday pearl! | chicago baby photographer

What a difference a year makes! I had the pleasure of photographing this sweet little girl in her beautiful Chicago home when she was a newborn, and then again right after her first birthday. She was such a tiny peanut of a newborn, it’s amazing how much she has grown.

I had major deja vu driving over to go do Pearl’s one year shoot. There was a lot of snow on the ground, and it was snowing quite a bit during my drive. Just the same as it was a year ago. The first year of life is just so full of changes, and such rapid development. Pretty fun to experience as a parent, and I love to be able to capture it on camera.

I’m including some of Pearl’s newborn shots here, so you can see just how much the little nugget has changed. Pretty amazing! Love this beautiful little family!

And here she is now!
