First birthdays are always so much fun to commemorate! I remember the first birthday bashes I had for my boys, they were HUGE! For us, it streams from our Hawaiian heritage. First birthdays in Hawaii are a big deal. It's a way to kick off a long and healthy life as well as another reason to enjoy good food and great company! Needless to say, I'm always happy when anyone contacts me to capture this big day for them!
Sophia has the most beautiful smile and she was so happy to show it off for the camera!
Look at her adorable first birthday shirt... her "one" onesie!
Dolly got dropped into the grass a few times, but she survived!
OH MY GOODNESS!!! That smile is the sweetest!
We were able to catch just a couple shots of these balloons before they got away!
Oh wow! I just love this one in color and black and white! We tried and tried to get Sophia to sit under the super cute bunting we strung up between the trees, but for some reason she was dead set on running from that adorable backdrop. Fortunately I was able to catch this while running backwards before I tripped over the stroller and landed on the ground. (I apparently had the eyes in the back of my head closed)
And it wouldn't be a successful one year old session without a mad face!
I love how sweetly Sophia was admiring this pretty flower. She liked it so much, she decided to admire it a little bit more... with her mouth! Hahaha!
She says, "Bring on the cake!"
And then it happened... too much of a good thing.
Sierra and Sophia, thank you for letting me share your birthday cake time! Sophia was absolutely perfect!
