Ava: 3 months

You first met her HERE, and now Ava is a whopping 3 (almost 4) months! When I come to a family session, I not only marvel at the growth of the child I'm photographing, but I love watching parents and their evolution. I can say this because I've been there now, but when holding a newborn for the first time, you're awkward and still getting to know your child. The learning of your child never stops, but Jen & Jason are doing so well at figuring out Ava. They were telling me about her "classic faces", her chunks and gestures, and everything she can do now. Here's a little bit of our time together: 

I started by scoping out our spot for the morning and finding interesting niches around the gardens in Altoona.

some classic faces: 

Our morning session fell a little before her morning nap time, but gradually Ava went to Dreamville and was equally sweet to photograph:

Jen + Jason: You guys are incredible! Jen thought of everything possible to bring to help with our session and Jason-what a trooper and supporter! Thank you so much for trusting me to document Ava and her milestones. It means the world and I'm so grateful for our friendship!

Blessings,

Carrie
