1st Birthday Photography – Fun-Filled Experience
Turning ONE is a big milestone in your baby’s life and it is a fabulous time to capture some beautiful photos in a fun and entertaining atmosphere.
Whether it’s a sweet and simple birthday set up, or a fun cake smash, and a playful splash in a bowl, I’ll create beautiful memories of this once-in-a-lifetime milestone.
My 1st Birthday photography sessions are relaxed, fun, and designed to capture the joy of your baby’s big day.
These sessions are also perfect for celebrating 2nd, 3rd, or even older birthdays!
Why Capture Your Baby’s First Birthday?
What’s Included in 1st Birthday Photography Session?
I believe every birthday is unique, and my goal is to create a fun and memorable experience while providing you with stunning,
high-quality photos.
With a warm and relaxed approach, I try my best to make sure both parents and little ones feel comfortable in front of the camera.
A Choice of Beautiful Backdrops
Select from a variety of fun and stylish backdrops to match your baby’s personality and celebration theme.
A Relaxed and Fun Atmosphere
I ensure a stress-free and enjoyable experience where your little one can be themselves while we capture natural, joyful expressions.
Family Photos on a Plain Backdrop
We start each session with a few family portraits to make sure you have timeless images with your child before the birthday fun begins.
High-Quality Professional Editing
All final images are carefully selected and professionally retouched to ensure they look their best.
