✨ Meet Aria & Tyler and their beautiful baby girl, Millie, who’s just weeks away from turning ONE! ✨

This session was pure magic—from the golden light to the way this sweet family radiates love and connection. Millie was an absolute star in her dreamy green dress, giving us the perfect mix of curiosity, sass, and sweetness. 🌿💚

Watching Aria and Tyler laugh with her, hold her close, and celebrate this precious season of life was such a joy. And let’s talk about that cake smash—messy, hilarious, and absolutely perfect. 🎂🌈

These are the moments that matter. The in-between giggles, the tiny toes, the frosting-covered fingers… all frozen in time to look back on forever. 💫

Happy (almost) birthday, sweet Millie! 🥹💕
