This landmark event for this (almost) toddler was probably one of the best first year birthday parties I have ever been to.  The recipe for this success?  You need to add one smart little outfit, some tasty cupcakes shaped into a cute little caterpillar, a playground with plenty of places to crawl, slide, and play, and a fun, festive, gathering of friends and family to celebrate with.

I had the privilege of photographing Isaac starting from three months of age when they took a chance on this (then) newbie photographer, and it has been quite a joy watching this family grow together.  A few oldies but goodies - Isaac at three months and six months:



And now he's one!

It was also amazing to meet their wonderful family and friends, and be able to capture sweet little moments from the stuffed animal birthday present that was a huge hit with Isaac to pictures of Isaac enjoying his birthday cake (as evidenced by his face).

Here are just a few of the pictures from that day.
