Farha found out about me from a mini session that I had done a few months ago and stated she wanted to do the same thing for Maya when she turned one. And so we were on Pinterest, back-and-forth, back-and-forth trying to come up with different ideas, and I love what we came up with. Maya is so adorable with those big brown eyes…oh my gosh, I could just eat her up she’s so cute and she was not grumpy at all! That child fell over I don’t even know how many times during the shoot…walk, fall, walk, fall, and then get up with a big huge smile on her face…nothing seemed to faze her. And then in the studio when we did the smash the cake… it’s so hilarious to see the kids do the smash the cake. We always think that the kids are going to totally go for the cake and just eat and smash it up, but half the time the kids are looking at the cake going ‘what am I supposed to do with this thing?’ as if they’re going to get in trouble if they touch it. it’s hilarious… every single kid is so different, I love watching the reactions.
