Bluey First Birthday Cake Smash

Even though these Cake Smash photos are from a while back now, I was originally worried that I missed showcasing them to all the Bluey Fans because of how quickly popularity in shows and movies come and go now a days. Fortunate for me, Bluey is still wildly popular, as it should be, and is still a requested theme two years later!

Admittedly I haven’t been a huge fan of a lot of recent cartoons that kids watch now a days (they’re far too fast passed, noisy and busy) Bluey is one of the rare few that I would closely compare to the cartoons we had growing up! Plus, the lessons and deeper meaning in all the episodes is so relatable and at times heart wrenching. I didn’t think a show about talking Dogs that wasn’t homeward bound would make me cry!

I was over the moon when this family requested the theme, especially considering I had just finished painting my Heelers Car! It was such a fun and easy set to put together. I’ve done several Bluey Cake Smashes and been to several Bluey Birthday Partys since then and there’s so many fun elements from the show you can incorporate in that I’ve never had difficulty putting creating something! Also, how Darling is this Bluey Dress?

Fortunate for me, little lady loved her Bluey Cake and was nothing but smiles for her photos! I can’t wait to share other Bluey themed photos and I’m so happy to finally be able to share some of my most colorful and loved Cake Smash sets with everyone! Big thanks to Mom, Dad and of course Baby girl for making the drive all the way to Nashville for this Cake Smash photoshoot!

Baby F 6 Month Session

I’ve spoken before about all the beautiful mothers you see on Instagram that are just big faker dakers and make you feel terrible about yourself… I hate to break it to you but… they exist. Mama C is one of those well dressed, fit, and pretty Moms that make you question your choices in life and if she truly did give birth just seven or eight months ago (don’t hate me if that’s wrong C). Besides just being drop dead gorgeous, she’s also such a pleasure to be around! It’s a shame I didn’t know her when she lived in Nashville!

The beautiful Ms. F is such a ham and is ALWAYS so happy, even when we ran into nap time, and always manages to break out in a toothy grin (even though she’s only got two teeth)! She is a true Southern Baby with her huge bows and vivid floral patterns and gave me soooo many great images that have already made their way into my online galleries!

S Family Session

One of the most highly anticipated babies of this year was born a month ago and I feel it’s about time to share a sneak peek into their newborn session! After months of seeing Mama M & Papa D count down the days, showing off that big beautiful belly, and hearing all the sweet stories she’d tell me about Papa D anticipating his first born and his plans for their future, Baby S made her big debut! I was fortunate enough to be able to be a part of such an important event in their life and will never be able to put into words how much I appreciate being in the delivery room with them and being able to impose on their bonding time for newborn photos!

The birth of Baby S was so emotional and her Mama and Papa immediately became pros and acted as if this was their 5th child, parenthood just came so naturally to the both of them.

Watching Papa D in the delivery room would make any woman hate her man and see Mama M after (during and before) giving birth would make you wonder why you bothered trying to put on makeup today. These two are so dedicated to one another, I can’t wait to watch the 4 of them (including Weenie) grow over the next few years and see Baby S’s personality develop and I’m really bad at wrapping things up so if you’re still reading this… enjoy!

K Family Session

Have you ever seen those moms on Instagram or Pinterest that just look like they stuck two model children in there with her to sell a product? Like that woman couldn’t have kids because she looks so good and well rested and those kids have matching outfits and perfect hair and so does she? Well… I hate to tell you guys, they actually exist…

Mama K is the epitome of the mother we would all like to be and Baby H & Big Sister C are the type of kids you want to have! These two beautiful sisters get along SOOOO well it’s unreal, I see adult siblings that aren’t as caring to one another as these two girls are. Baby H was a little camera shy when we first started and cried for a second but all she really wanted was sister C to take some photos with her! Than Big Sister C was a little upset when they first did photos together that their outfits didn’t match (their second outfits matched but she wasn’t suppose to be in the first set!) It only took 5 seconds for both these little ladies to warm up to the camera and they were what I always hope to get out of a session! Engaging, sweet, full of smiles, and you can tell that they have their photos taken all the time! Big sister C was also an amazing photographer and took my camera a few times to take pictures of her surroundings and family, and they were good!!!! If nap time wasn’t creeping around I would have kept these ladies with me all morning but in the short time we spent together I got some of the sweetest images of these 3!

I can’t wait to get my hands on these beautiful ladies again and I’m so happy to have meet these 3!
