It’s an understatement to say how much of a treat it was to meet up with Amanda, Travis, Robbie and Amelia again (I had the pleasure of making family photos for them this past autumn, too!). This time it was to make some baby outdoor cake smash and family photos – with Amelia as the star of the show to celebrate her upcoming first birthday! (Happy, happy birthday, Amelia!)

Our session took place on a beautiful 82-degree day (in May – holy moly!), and we started out by making some non-cake photos first. It was so fun to walk through the woods with these four, tiptoeing down the length of large logs, finding dandelions, discovering a variety of Robbie-approved sticks, and then throwing said sticks into the water.

The cake was beckoning to us, however, so we found a sunny spot, threw down a blanket, Amelia donned some birthday girl duds, and we let her have at it. She was pretty dainty and delicate with her treatment of the cake at first, but Robbie was eager to show her how it’s done, and well…I’ll let the photos speak for themselves. :) I’m not exaggerating when I say that I was seriously CRACKING up, and literally had to wipe tears out of my eyes. What a BLAST!

Thank you again, Amanda, Travis, Robbie and Amelia for such a wonderful session. You are all such a beautiful family, and it’s been so fun to document you all together! Here’s to smiles, walks through the woods, and lots and lots of cake! :)

On the docket: lots of portraits and weddings! Stay tuned!

Cheers,
