frederick md one year session | maryland Milestone photographer
One year of loving and photographing Nina! Getting to know this little girl’s personality and watching her grow has been an absolute joy. I am honored to have photographed her most memorable milestones and am excited to watch this family grow together for many years to come!
This little ducky had to make an appearance, of course. See if you can spot the duck in one of her past sessions here. Because Nina is a Baby Membership babe, her obligatory basket shot was also necessary. Getting “the shot” gets a little trickier as these kiddos get older, but the final images are highly entertaining. This little escape artist knew exactly how to get laughs out of everyone in the room! Just look at that cheeky grin!
And then, there was cake…and a not-so-happy Nina. The cake smash portion of a first-year session can be hit or miss. Many babies don’t like getting their hands dirty with sticky (delicious) icing; Some babies LOVE it! And others don’t quite know what to think. Needless to say, Nina was not a fan. However, we captured a few smiles with some magic and strategically placed puffs.
Once we made it to bath time, it was smooth sailing. I think we all can agree that there isn’t much that a warm bubble bath can’t fix. Water and bath toys are way more relatable to a one-year-old than a cake. The bubble bath portion of a one-year/cake smash session is one of my favorite parts. As a photographer, I have learned that interactive setups and props are the key to great final images. When cake is not the vibe, rubber duckies are coming to the rescue!
Thank you for continuing to choose JNP as your photographer and letting me capture so many sweet moments during your family’s milestones. I hope you will cherish these moments for many years to come.
