One of the best things about this job is watching families as they grow – both in years and in numbers. Not only did I grow up with the dad of this family, but they’ve been graciously allowing me into their home for the last two and a half years to photograph their growing family. This time it was to commemorate their sweet girl, Tatum’s 9 months on this big old planet. I remember this from her big brother’s every-three-months photos – the difference between 6 and 9 months is ridiculously amazing. No different for this gal. Her personality is starting to just explode out of her, and it’s incredible to watch her interact with those who love her the most. Happy 9 months, sweet gal!
