First Year of Ava Sophia

This gallery documents the first year of Ava Sophia’s life through a series of photoshoots created from her first weeks up to her first birthday.

The sessions took place almost every month, focusing on how quickly a baby changes during the first year.

Rather than following a strict timeline, the goal was to capture real moments and visible growth - from tiny details like hands and facial features to the way her expressions, movement and presence evolved over time. Some sessions included her mother as well, adding context and connection to the story.

Projects like this are especially meaningful, as the first year passes incredibly fast. These photographs preserve small, everyday moments that often disappear from memory, creating a quiet and honest visual record of the beginning of life.
