Oh sweet Luna. How is it possible that you’re already a year old? I have loved getting to photograph every single session with you over the past year. Luna was one of my first Grow with Me babies and I photographed several sessions with her family through the year as well!

Her Mom and I started planning Luna’s 1 Year Simple Studio Cakesmash in September. She went back and forth wondering if what she had in mind was “too simple”. Personally, I absolutely love the idea of a simple cakesmash. The focus was all on Luna, it was beautiful, and not to mention the fresh peonies made the studio smell like heaven! Fun fact, the best places to purchase fresh flowers is Trader Joes and Wegmens. There are always so many options!!

With this session, I tried something I’ve never done before. A family session in the studio! I love that I tried something new. We all love the final images! Happy 1st Birthday Luna!
