we celebrated three birthdays this weekend for three very special people in our lives.
and as much as many want to shove their birthdays under the rug…they are special. …and worthy of every shred of hallmark hoopla that should rightly bestow them.
yes they are.
and i think birthday candle shots are up there with ice cream cones…definitely in my top five fave things to photograph. (hence the fact i haven’t been able to change my header…that moment’s just too precious). there’s something so real…so right now…so captured…about that little moment on one’s face before they blow out their candles.
another year of beautiful life is always something worth celebrating.
so, here’s to happy birthdays.
for one year…

for three years…

for thirty…

to three souls i love very much…happy birthday,
lily,
baylee,
and anna ruth.
i reap the sweet benefits of your births every day. so, thanks to your mamas.
xoxo
oh…and to my beautiful sister…my zoom lense doesn’t reach michigan, so sadly i have no picture of her candles. but i bet she was beautiful blowin’ them out.
