The Rhode founder posted a series of intimate, professionally shot photographs of her cradling Jack in matching white t-shirts and blue jeans. In one tender moment, she lovingly kisses her son’s forehead, while in another, she lifts him high with a radiant smile. The caption read: “1 year of you my beautiful boy. Happy 1st Birthday Jack Blues, you are joy personified.”
Captured by photographer Stevie Dance, the portraits highlight Jack’s striking blonde hair: a surprise since both parents are natural brunettes adding a charming visual contrast.
Hailey also shared glimpses of the birthday celebration via Instagram Stories, featuring whimsical themed balloons, including baby blue and gold balloons that read “1st birthday”—and sweet playtime scenes of Jack among the decorations.
