We held our session in Downtown Norfolk, close to Nauticus and the USS Wisconsin, which worked seamlessly with his nautical themed event. Our session began with some classic family portraits and one on one time between baby and both mom and dad. Its nothing sweeter than the love you see between a baby and its parents. Each parent holds a special bond with their child, its so precious to see the interaction and be able to capture those little moments, laughs and smiles, on camera.
I also always like to try to get Mom and Dad by themselves for at least a couple portraits during the session as well. I feel its important to rekindle that connection, and to never lose the love you feel between the two of you. Life can be hectic, especially when having a little one running around to look after and care for, but at the end of the day you both will always have each other. A family begins with two and grows thru the love they both have for each other.
I used a custom made banner from HoneyGoDesigns on Etsy and as you will see it was perfect! I can't wait to use her shop for future decorations as it exceeded my expectations and I would gladly recommend her if you are in need of custom party decorations. Ayden was such a joy to work with - a little shy in the beginning, as most children are, but by the end of our session we were best friends. Except when it came time to smash his cake.... This was my very first session where my birthday boy has cried and refused to smash or eat cake. He gave true meaning to "Its my party and I'll cry if I want to" and I couldn't help but photograph that moment and have it for him and his family to look back on years down the road. It will surely bring a smile to his family to look back on and remember his first birthday photoshoot.
