Caroline's First Birthday Photos | Greensburg Portrait Photographer

Last Wednesday Caroline turned one and Mommy bought her a special outfit for the day. We picked up some balloons after our big birthday outing and headed home to take a few photos. After all the portrait sessions I have photographed over the years, this one was by far the hardest I think. There is something about photographing your own kiddo that makes it so much harder. So after this I need someone else kiddo to photograph. hint hint 😉

If you have missed the memo, all this month for Caroline’s birthday

PORTRAIT SESSIONS are 25% OFF!!!! (see the details at the bottom of the post.)

This girl is a total cheese. We call this her scrunchy smile but it’s currently her signature smile look.
After a very short birthday nap, daddy came home and it was time to open presents.

When party day came I created a flower and greenery backdrop for her and needed a model to test it out… Poor Duke.

“When your sibling is a girl and your mom thinks it’s ok to use big brother as the perfect backdrop tester.” – Duke

Right before her party she got her teething rash again be cause molar #2 is coming in and while I could here every client in the back of my mind asking me to remove the little rash I couldn’t do it. These photos document her 1st year and teething and molars have been a big part of it so the rash stays.

This girl is proud of her 8 teeth. Two on the bottom, 4 on the top in the center and 2 molars are coming in.

Caroline’s other signature look. “What?” “Huh?” “Excuse me?”

Party #1’s smash cake was a “smashing” success!

She picked off every berry and ate it before eating the cake. This momma taught this girl well. 😉

These are my favorite photos ever of her I think. This girl LOVES food and she every so delicately but hungrily ate this cake. Not all of it but she did some major damage before daddy said no more cake.
