This is my favorite subject—my son, Titus, who is now 6 months old and sitting up like a big boy! Titus brings so much joy to our lives with his happy spirit, his bright and wide smile, his strawberry-breath kisses, his high-pitched squeals of excitement… the list goes on and on. It’s hard to believe that he’s already growing up this fast. Looking back at old videos and photos, it’s like he’s a totally different baby. Every time I turn around I feel like I’m packing up clothes he’s outgrown. The Earth has already traveled halfway around the sun since Titus took his first breath! Time is flying! I’m not ready! At least in these photographs, I’m able to possess these precious moments before they are gone. Before you know it, another 6 months will pass! Don’t blink, people! Don’t blink.

I photographed this sweet baby boy at his Queen & Popsicle’s (my in-love’s) yard. The two chairs we used as props have sentimental value. The little chair belonged to my husband’s great grandmother Grace. The rocking chair was my husband’s PawPaw’s. Both of them would have been totally in love with this baby! I’m so glad we got to include a piece of them in this portrait session.
