Sweet family { Cedar Rapids child photographer }

I’ve been lucky enough to be shooting this sweet family for years – would you believe that Ashlynne was my first ever newborn session?  Four years later, I can’t believe how much she and her brother Alex have grown.  This family is one of the best and I love seeing how these kids grow!  We’ve been tailgating with them for over a decade, and they are some of the most loyal Hawk (and Cubs!) fans you’ll find.  Alex can name every Cubs player along with their number and position – it’s really amazing.

Just like last year, our session this year was very special – it was on their son Jesse’s birthday.  Jesse was born still in 2011, and the C family works hard to honor him and keep his memory alive.  They take Jesse’s birthday off of work and school every year, send balloons to him, and go out to dinner.  They also include his “Jesse puppy” in some of their family pictures.  It was such an honor to capture their balloon release for him again!  Here’s a peek into our session – thank you, C family! <3
