Springtime at the Texas Woman’s University Botanic Garden offered the perfect backdrop for this birthday milestone session with CJ. This sweet family of three gathered under the spring blooms to celebrate a new season and a big milestone: their daughter’s second birthday!
We loved documenting this joyful chapter in a location full of natural beauty and soft light. The session was filled with playful family moments as their little girl lit up the garden with her energy—exploring barefoot and giggling through tickles and cuddles with Mom and Dad.
Birthday milestone sessions with toddlers are full of magic. We keep things relaxed and gently guided, allowing space for authentic connection and joy. For this family, that meant warm embraces, silly giggles, and plenty of movement as she played and explored.
Whether you’re marking a birthday or just soaking in a fleeting season of life, sessions like these give space to honor your family’s story. And TWU’s lush pathways and blooming gardens gave us endless inspiration to do just that.
