Elsie is ONE...bring on the cake!

Oh how I adore this baby girl's family! Sweet Elsie is so precious and holds a very special place in my heart since I met her amazing mama, Vannie, when I photographed her maternity portraits while she was expecting Elsie. I was also blessed to be able to capture her newborn portraits in their home, and their first family portraits as a family of four.

Vannie shared that she was planning pink, pink and more pink for Elsie's first birthday, so I knew my custom flower ring would be the perfect accent for her cake smash session! I was expecting our little birthday girl to dig in and make a huge, adorable mess. But she shocked Vannie and I both when she delicately took her time scooping little bites of icing without so much as a crumb on her beautiful dress. Such a little lady!
