I have had the honor of photographing Charlie since he was a newborn born in the McKinney, Texas area. It always amazes me how much babies change in the first year of life (see his little newborns!).
The thing that always amazes me more though, is how they stay the same! One thing that has seemed to stay the same is Charlie’s adorable, crooked smile! (See his 3 month portraits where his crooked smile made their first appearance). He is going to be such a ladies man when he grows up, no doubt about it!
Charlie’s hair has continued to grow into this fuzz ball of curls, his teeth are growing in, he’s just as happy as can be with his crooked smile charming anyone who will look his way!
Caity and Charlie actually met me out on my in-laws property close to their house. They have a big piece of acreage with two cows and horse leaving plenty of things for Charlie to look at and smile. Since we were doing this after work, I had to bring my niece with me, and believe it or not, Charlie was more interested in her than the animals.
That reminds me, I still owe her a dollar for getting her to get Charlie to smile at my camera for my favorite shot with his mom, Caity!

OUR TIME TOGETHER
I mean, have you ever seen a BABY that was such a stud!? I love that little crinkled nose!
He also has a serious side though.
Charlie, I can’t believe that next time we will be doing your 1 year old portraits!!! See you soon, before I know, I’m sure!
