I've known both of Ronan's parents since the very beginning of their relationship, so it was extra special for me to get to meet and photograph their baby boy, Ronan. Ronan made a grand entrance to this world by showing up on his Dad's birthday! I love how they incorporated special items including a meaningful necklace and a little stuffed animal yeti that doubled as an inside joke. Also, their dog is just perfect. Here are some of my favorite images from the shoot:
