These two! They are so close and just absolutely adorable! The last time we did pictures with the two of them, they were turning 4 and 3 - and they were just as cute then as they are now!

It seems like a couple of years ago that we did pictures when he was first born 😊 This cake smelled so good! I had to go to the store and get one of my own 😂 And the battle of the cake begins 😂 We had to get paper towels after this! It was so cute that Layla was "helping" Amari get the cake off of his face 😂 For more information on High School Seniors, Portraits and Weddings call Natalie at 720-837-5378 or email natalie@nataliebeckphotography.com.

This was when they were ours to hold, protect and love fiercely. This is why the cap matters. This is now, when we get to hold, protect and love fiercely. But with boundaries and a...
