Rachel’s mom, Linda, was a colleague of mine back when I was still working a 9-5 office job. When she found out that I was going into professional photography, she quickly offered her oh-so-cute baby girl for me to photograph.

Now, almost two years later, Rachel is much taller, has twice the energy, and is totally having conversations (yeah, I knew her back when she was just mumbling words!) Some things never changed though — she still loves pink, her unforgettable chubby cheeks are still chubby as ever, her beautiful curly brown hair, and her rambunctious personality that never ceases to surprise you.

Also, I’m convinced Linda fed her at least two bottles of Red Bull before I got there. Where does all that energy come from??

Oh, and something else that is new — Rachel now has a little sister! Welcome to the world, Maddie!
