I absolutely love meeting new people and I am so glad I was able to meet this lovely family.  We met at a park to have Eliana’s 1st Birthday photos taken.  She’s a well-behaved, serious little girl, but I did manage to grab a few snaps of her smiling.  As we got to the cake smash part, she was ready to dive in, but once she got a feel for the cake, there was some apprehension, she wasn’t quite sure what to think of the whole thing…Was she really able to do this?  Get messy with no one telling her not to, but yet encouraging her to?  A couple of touches to the cake, some looks at her cake-filled hands and she was off and about ready to run around.
It was an absolute pleasure photographing this little one and her parents! A very beautiful family who is surely blessed.  Happy 1st Birthday Eliana, and many more!
