I am sooooo behind!  A few weeks after Kate’s birthday, I bring you still – birthday stuff.  I wouldn’t post it if it wasn’t adorable though! 

A lot of things have changed through the years, even in photography.  My Father In Law used to photograph weddings with totally manual cameras that used film and developed the negatives in special labs.  He only shot the photos he thought people would buy.  It was called “shooting the reprints”.  Back then weddings were also much different than they are now.  I challenge you to find one person who would wear their hair in the style their grandma did.  Anyway, I know it’s a stretch but very similar to that progression is first birthday photos.  I’m not even sure people did photos other than what was captured at the party but these days, the days of digital, we photographer ev-er-y-thing!  One of the current trends is to capture your nearly one year old’s reaction to their first cake.  We’ve done this for a few clients and if nothing else, it’s great for some laughs.  Some children want nothing to do with it and others are mildly interested.  If you know anything about Kate, you know that she likes to eat.  I never thought though, that she could demolish an entire cake.  So here’s Kate’s first smash cake – in photos…

The pretty, poor, unsuspecting cake.

Hello, Cake.

I am going to eat you.

And rub you on my body.

And squish you in my toes.  And my nose.

  

  

  

Don’t tell anyone it was me.

How could they not know it was me?

  

Guess we should just finish it off then.

The poor cake.  A total body experience.
