I recently had the pleasure of photographing my friend’s daughter’s birthday and what a joy it was. She is the cutest little thing, and she’s only a week older than Alex. They’re a match made in heaven! There was a lot of pink and gold, good food, and the kids got to paint. Everyone had an amazing time and I am super excited about how the pictures turned out. What a pleasure.

After everyone ate some delicious chicken salad, fruit, and other goodies, the kids went out to paint. Nothing says awesome birthday like a painting party. Ellie did that at her first birthday as well.

Emmeline obviously loved it. And wanted to share a little love too.

I love this picture because it documents exactly what it felt like in that moment… utter chaos.
