Jonah.

This handsome little boy is turning one in just a few short days. 

Let's start at the beginning . . . .














Jonah loved his cupcake.

He seemed a little unsure of it at first.

He pulled the icing off and tossed it, and took a bite of the cupcake.

He loved the tub, and loved playing with the tub.... as a drum......with the cupcake.

He went through a few cupcakes, each one pulling  the icing off.

Green icing.

Yellow icing.

Orange icing.

Blue icing.

By the end of his session he was a colorful, adorable mess.

It was fun to watch him enjoying his cupcakes.

He is such a happy baby and was a joy to work with.

Happy birthday Jonah!

Adrian & Gina, military session

I have photographed several military sessions.

This was my first military & maternity session.

I think this is one of my favorites.

Then again, I love all of the military sessions I have been honored to photograph.

Being a military wife, I knew this was something special I wanted to do for others in the military.

Gina and Adrian, thank you for your service.

I'm sure you are counting down the days until your new little one arrives.

I hope you enjoy this little video I put together for your session.

In His Daddy's Hat (Cover).

I photographed this session last summer.

There were pictures of this little boy with his daddy's hat(cover) that I just didn't have enough room in their gallery to add them all.

So today's Give Back Friday, are the pictures that never made it to their gallery.


I hope you enjoyed this Give Back Friday!

A new one will be posted every Friday morning, so be sure to visit here to see if your little one is the "Give Back Friday" pick for the week.

Lindsey, these pictures will be sent to you shortly. (I need you to send me your email address to amberhopephotography@gmail.com)
