M is 5 Years Old | Bakersfield Family Photographer

Posted in Birthday Session, Children, family

I had the pleasure of welcoming M and his family to Bakersfield for their much-anticipated family photo session. Traveling all the way from Los Angeles, their commitment to preserving these special moments together was truly touching.

It felt like a reunion of sorts, as the last time I had the honor of photographing this wonderful family was for M’s first birthday. Seeing how much M has grown over the years was incredible. Now celebrating his 5th birthday, he was full of energy, joy, and curiosity—perfect for capturing those candid, heartwarming moments.

M’s laughter was infectious, his playful spirit bringing out the best in everyone. His parents beamed with pride, their love for him evident in every shot.

It was a privilege to be a part of this milestone, documenting the essence of their family journey. Happy 5th birthday, M! Here’s to many more years of capturing your wonderful moments together <3

We don’t realize how fast time moves… until we look back.
Photos aren’t just pictures — they’re proof of love, seasons, and tiny details we forget too quickly 🤍

One day, your baby will ask, “Was I really that small?”
And you’ll have the answer.

✨ Save this. You’ll want to remember it later.

This little desk, a laptop, and a lot of heart.
What started as a way to stay close to my babies slowly became a business, a purpose, and a creative life I’m deeply grateful for.

You don’t need a huge studio or perfect timing to begin.
Sometimes it starts right at home—one small step, one client, one “what if I try?”

If you’ve ever dreamed of turning your creativity into something more,
this is your sign that it’s possible 🤍
