I recently had the pleasure of attending and photographing Amelia’s first birthday party. Our initial consultation set the tone for the session, focusing on a candid and natural vibe to capture the true beauty of this special day.

Setting the Scene

The theme was Dr. Seuss, and the decorations were nothing short of amazing. Deep greens, pinks, and whites filled the room, creating a vibrant and fun atmosphere. The first part of the party was all about capturing the details. I spent time photographing the preparation, from the beautifully decorated yard to the delicious food being arranged. These behind-the-scenes shots truly set the stage for the celebration.

Family Moments

As guests started to arrive, I shifted my focus to gathering family members for group pictures. These moments are always special, as they highlight the joy and love shared among family and friends. Everyone’s smiles and laughter brought joy of celebrating Amelia’s big day.

The Cake Smash

The highlight of the event was Amelia’s first cake smash. Watching her curiosity and excitement as she explored the cake was a delight to capture. Her reactions ranged from tentative touches to full-on putting her face on the cake, each moment filled with pure joy and wonder.

Throughout the session, my goal was to document the authentic moments that made this day special. From the decorations to the candid interactions, every photograph tells a part of Amelia’s first birthday story.

It was an honor to be part of such a memorable occasion. I look forward to capturing many more milestones in Amelia’s life and those of other families, preserving these precious moments for years to come.
