mom life : Odette’s 1st Birthday Party

Posted on Leave a Comment

Our little girl is 1 years old! We had a lovely party with family and friends at Island Park in Williamsville. They have a cute good size pavilion and you pretty much have the whole park, a little island before Glen Falls, to yourself. Going along with her name we decided on a swan theme. I went with pale pink, white, and gold for the colors as they are the colors of her room and colors I always dress her in but added in teal for some fun and to pair with the blue and green colors of the pavilion.

Morgan’s Newborn Portrait Session

It was such a treat doing sweet little Morgan’s Newborn Session. She slept through the whole thing! Only opening her eyes for a brief moment to allow me to get a shot of her looking at the camera. What a great little subject. We used a combination of her clothes, accessories, and blankets and accessories and props I had at my studio. Her fuzzy pink blanket was so cozy and made for the perfect backdrop! The brand new parents got in at the end for some of their first family photos. Welcome Morgan!

Calvin’s personality came through and that really is the best.

Odette’s 6 Month Portrait Session

For my daughter Odette’s 6 month portrait session we waited a few weeks until she was able to sit up on her own. I like trying to do first year photos every 3 months and try to get the milestones of tummy time, sitting up, standing holding on, and standing alone. So sometimes that means doing them a bit before or after the 3, 6, 9, and 12 month dates. Once again for Odette’s portraits I kept it simple with props using her toys and blankets. I love all the fun and silly expressions and the clapping!
