Cake Smash │Josie Kate
I. adore. this. kid.
She just kills me with those big brown eyes and her adorable little smile, so so sweet! Josie and I go waaaaay back, you may remember her Mom's maternity shoot, Reveal Party, and Josie's newborn sessions! When Katie called me to book Josie's 1 Year Cake Smash session, I first had to pinch myself because there was no possible way a full year had already flown by and we were prepping for a first birthday for that sweet newborn. Seriously you guys, how in the world is it all flying by so fast?? I of course jumped at the chance to see Josie for this photo session and I think you would have to agree that her Mom pulled together some pretty sweet props for us! Thanks again, Katie and happy birthday, Josie! Check out the super cute Mini Cake Smash cake by CCupsCupcakery in Southern Pines.

How cute is that little outfit? Ha, I can't even! I tell you what, there is nothing more fun for parents than that 1st birthday shoot where you can sit back and look at how far you've come in just twelve little months!
Look how teeny she was in that framed photo!
I think it's safe to say that the red velvet cake by CCupsCupCakery was a huge hit with Josie! Did you see her little face when we tried to move the cake away so I could get in position before letting her eat it??? Hahaha! Kids are the BEST.
Josie Kate, you are so loved! I hope you had a wonderful 1st year and I cannot wait to see what the new year brings to you, sweet girl!
Wilmington │Melanie is One
Just LOOK at that baby face! Such a beauty! My friend, Gabrielle, has the most beautiful family so I just had to take them out to downtown Wilmington for a little family mini session followed by a birthday cupcake to celebrate Melanie's 1st birthday! Melanie and her sister, Mya, are adorable and my little girl absolutely loves them. I had a ball spending a little time with them on this morning family shoot!

After our neighborhood stroll, we found a shady place to let Melanie have a little birthday cupcake to celebrate the big O-N-E!
Happy 1st Birthday, Melanie!

Leland, NC | 1st Birthday for Clair
It's hard to believe you are a one year old little girl now, when not so long ago your Mama and I were chatting baby names and wondering just who you would be when you finally arrived. Sweet, curious, calm, interested, beautiful, loving... that's who that little baby has become! Although you weren't the typical messy baby in this cake smash, I think we did just fine capturing the little toddler you are in this moment. Clair, happiest birthday wishes to you, sweet girl. You are so very loved!
