At Pat Hermann Photography, watching families grow is truly one of the greatest joys of what I do. Zelda is one of our Baby Planners and the third baby — and the first girl! — that I’ve had the honor of photographing for this wonderful family. Seeing her in front of my camera felt like déjà vu in the sweetest way, because she looks so much like her big brothers did at this age!

At nine months old, she was on a mission. Determined, curious, and full of personality, Zelda was ready to move! She was rolling over, sitting up like a pro, pulling up on everything she could reach, and even showing off her toe-eating skills. This stage is such a fun age to photograph because their little personalities are shining through and they can do so much. Every milestone becomes a memory frozen in time.

She truly did it all during her session — and she rocked every single second of it.

I can hardly believe we’ll be planning her cake smash soon. Time moves far too fast, and my little clients always seem to grow up in the blink of an eye. It’s such an honor to document these fleeting seasons for families year after year.

Thank you, beautiful girl, for another amazing session. You always rock it, and I can’t wait to see you again soon! 💕
