Well it’s been a year since I photographed this family, but this occasion was special! A celebration of both of them on their birthday…which is on the same day! How the parents managed that, I do not know! What I can tell you is that the celebration was full of family, friends! I simply could not get enough of these two cuties! Thank you for letting me capture this celebration!
