Nolan recently celebrated his 1st birthday and I had the privilege of meeting up with him and his awesome family for a little post birthday celebrating this past weekend. The last time I photographed Nolan he was a sweet, tiny little bundle of newborn cuteness; now he’s a sweet, tiny little one year old bundle of cuteness 🙂 He has changed so much over the past year, yet he still has that same calm, curious, beautiful little personality that shone through so strongly the very first day I met him. Kate, Joe, Nolan, and of course, Deaner have created such a sweet little family and I’m honored to have been able to capture a little glimpse into this huge milestone:![NolanBlog_2](http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8248/8634604671_53c5d39d62_b.jpg)

All I can think when I see this next image is “what a boy”
And of course the patient, sweet family guardian. And possibly the most photogenic pup I’ve ever seen.![NolanBlog_16](http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8391/8635709620_4b3655168e_b.jpg)

Happy first birthday, Nolan! Thanks so much for letting me capture such a big moment in your lives.
I love these pictures. You really captured Nolan. My favorites are: when Mom and Dad kiss him and he makes a face and then Dean to the rescue! My other favorite is the cake ones and … of course I love the woods pictures. Lets admit it they are all fun! Greay Pix- Thanks for sharing his special day pictures.
Love NONA
Great pictures of a beautiful family. You will cherish these for a lifetime. Nolan is such a handsome lad and Mom and Dad are a handsome and beautiful couple as well. Love Nolan in his first “red flyer” wooden wagon which every boy has to have!
Love Grandpa
