Baby Shay is One! Palm Beach Child and Baby Photographer
August 25, 2009This gorgeous little girl is getting ready to celebrate her first birthday and I was thrilled to do her one year portraits (we did them a little early so that the images can be displayed at her party). I just love her big brown eyes (look how they sparkle) and that gorgeous smile! She is such a doll and makes me totally want a little girl of my own. Anyhow, we did some family shots, some individual shots, some shots in her pale pink birthday dress, and finally enjoyed watching her try cake for the very first time. Like most babies trying cake for the first time, she was not sure that she liked the stikiness of it all, but was a great sport and smiled away like a champ! Mom had a neat little trick to coax that beautiful smile out….she sang U2’s “Beautiful Day” but changed the words to “beautiful girl” and it worked every time! It’s neat how parents often know the special tricks that work for their little one!
Sharon and Jose, thank you for welcoming me into your beautiful home and for letting me capture this special time in Shay’s life! I hope you enjoy your sneak peek! I will get the rest of your gallery to you soon. Oh, and Miss Shay, happy early birthday to you, baby girl!!
