A lot happens in the first year of a baby’s life for the parents and the baby. For all, the year passes by with a rapid learning curve, many things to process, and not a lot to remember.

British photographer Sam Cornwall and his wife decided to end this in the cutest way possible. While it would be hard to document every event, they simply recorded a single second in a day.

As a result, beginning with the birth of their beautiful baby boy Indigo, they documented every second of every day for an entire year. They decided to give him a collage of these recordings as a gift for his first birthday.

While he probably won’t appreciate it as much at that age, his parents and the rest of the world will. The end result is simply breathtaking. A short documentary shows a remarkable change in Indigo, dubbed by commentators as better than Jim Carry’s “Truman Show.” Everything is there, from the first smile to crawling and first steps.

Sam’s decision to leave the actual recorded sound throughout the collage enhances the experience by not hiding little Indigo tears or his smile. A truly beautiful experience that reminds us in less than 7 minutes how quickly children grow up and time passes. As a result, don’t forget to enjoy every moment of it.
