Ezra is ONE! I have had the pleasure of knowing the Gottliebs since photographing Emily's newborn session years ago. At that session, I managed to pose the family's sleeping Mini Australian Shepherd on baby Emily and it is easily my favorite picture ever taken (see it here!) It pretty much sold me on the breed convincing me to get a Mini Aussie of my own! A year ago, the family reached back out inquiring about newborn photos for their baby boy. Unfortunately we were unable to carry out a newborn session for baby Ezra due to the height of the pandemic, but a year later we were excited to reconnect and capture moments of him turning one. We did a mini family session outside the family's home in Hoboken, New Jersey. Then, Emily was nice enough to let me rearrange her bedroom to set up a little studio in the best lit corner of the apartment. Ezra's big blue eyes nearly broke my camera. He was a total fan of the cake, smashing fistfuls into his face. Such a sweet session.
