I last saw this couple about a month before their baby girl was born, which was also about the time the world shut down. Because of COVID-19 and restrictions, we weren’t able to do the at-home newborn session we had planned so we changed course and captured a one-year session instead. Almost exactly a year since our sunrise maternity session, we all returned to the same El Prado Park beach in Lauderdale by the Sea (this time for a sunset session) & celebrated the now family of 3.

You can definitely tell she's excited to be a big sister!I had such hard time narrowing down my favorites, but here are just a few...
