The Matthews family brought all the joy and sparkle to their holiday session at the Kimbell Art Museum! With the soft winter light and the museum’s modern architecture, this setting was the perfect place to mark a big milestone: their little girl turning one—and learning to walk!
CJ captured the wonder and wobbly steps of this sweet season, as well as the quiet, loving connection between this family of three. Dressed in cozy Christmas tones, the Matthews family embraced the moment with laughter, snuggles, and lots of encouragement for their tiny walker.
There’s something extra special about documenting first steps and first holidays all in one session—and these photos reflect the warmth and wonder of both.
