It’s a family session…but “she’s the focus.” That succinctly sums it up and it’s how mom and dad answered a pre-session questionnaire regarding their vision for the family session. Baby Nevaeh turned one and the family wanted to celebrate her. We combined a cake smash with a family session and, in true birthday girl fashion, she had a wardrobe change, beautiful flowers, and a delicious cake.

Let’s talk about her clothes for a minute. Mom is so talented and used to have her own clothing line (pre-kids, ya know…); she still makes the most darling custom pieces for the littlest keiki. The patterned dress in these photos is actually from a piece of vintage fabric that has been stashed away in mom’s closet for years…years! This was the perfect opportunity to whip up a special celebratory dress for this adored little girl. So special.

Not only are these my clients but they are friends, and there’s so much gratitude that they chose me to capture such a sweet milestone in their lives. We were there for maternity and newborn photos, too. :) Happy birthday, sweet girl!
