This is ONE cool dude. I was so excited to meet Eli and his family for this gnarly session at North Park. From the straight brim hat to the micro Vans, this guy was decked out in skater style, ending his session in the cutest checkered suspenders for his cake smash. He was so squishy and adorable!
Happy 1st Birthday, Eli!
It was a joy to work with Elliana and her mommy for her first birthday session! I loved the daisy theme they carried out, as well as the milk bath! Milk baths are a super fun way to photograph a baby for their first birthday. A small amount of milk combined with lukewarm water creates a dreamy, opaque background to really highlight baby’s features. It also gives us a chance to add some fun, little floatable props like flowers, leaves, or pinecones to the mix. Lastly, it bounces light onto baby’s face to get some really angelic shots, which was easy to accomplish with this one as Ellie was all smiles!
Happy 1st Birthday, Sweetheart!
Walker is almost ONE!
This darling boy is my first outdoor session of 2023! It feels so good to be outside again, and the night of Walker’s session brought spring-like temps and warm, golden sunlight. The winter was long and slow for me this year, but sessions are finally booking up as the days grow longer. Photographing Walker and his mama was a great way to kick things off. For this session, they opted for all neutral colors, and rustic overalls, as his first birthday party is a farm themed “Holy Cow! Walker’s One!”. So fun!
I hope you have the best birthday party, Sweetheart! It was a pleasure meeting you!
Payton could not have been sweeter for her First Birthday Session! She was so happy, friendly, and content. I so enjoyed meeting her, and photographing her in her various looks - such a fashionista! Her session was a lot of fun, and a great way to kick off 2021!
Before Christmas, and in the midst of Holiday Session madness, this little guy turned one! I got to spend some time with him in the studio for his fun little cake smash. He was on the move, crawling all over the place, but the cake caught his interest, and he very calmly examined the icing. Grayson had a First Year Special package with me, so I was able to photograph him as a newborn, 6-month-old, and 1-year-old! It’s been a pleasure watching him grow!
Happy 1st Birthday, Grayson!
