Ashlyn is One

First Birthdays are a time that we all treasure. While the actual parties are always more for mom and dad, the pictures will prove to be very special to children as they grow. Ashlyn had a Minnie Mouse party at her house. I was very thankful that her mom asked me to be a part of this very special day.

Ashyln is a precious little girl. Her big sister is also too fun, but she did everything she could to stay away from the camera. I did manage to get a few. Lindsay and Josh are remarkable people and parents. You can tell how much they love their daughters and like so many of us who are parents they live for them. Their friends and family were all great!

I will say I have never seen a one-year-old get into opening the gifts like Ashlyn. She was pulling out tissue paper and clothes like she was a pro! It was so funny and fun to watch.

Then came cake time! Ashlyn was very careful not to make a mess she took little pieces at a time. It was so cute. Momma finally helped her out by putting her whole hand in it, but she was not into that at all. She even shared her cake with friends and family. Nothing better than slobbery cake from a precious girl!

After cake was a quick bath and a new outfit! A Minnie Mouse shirt made just for Ashlyn! Then a few candid shots of the party as well as some special shots with Ashlyn and her Godparents and Ashlyn with Mom and Dad.

I have to say thank you to Lindsay and Josh again for letting me be a part of your special day. I hope that you enjoy the pictures as much as I have.

Many people might think that it is a waste of money to hire a photographer for special events like birthday parties, but there are several good reasons to spend the money. It means that you get to enjoy the party instead of worrying about making sure you get pictures. It means that you get all of the photos that you want and the ones that you need, you might just not think about it. I do photography to capture the moments in life that are special so that they can be shared for generations. Call or e-mail me for your special event. (205) 229-1865 or monicathach@gmail.
