Most people don't think about hiring a photographer for birthday parties or baby showers. You put so much effort into planning and preparing for your party, why not enjoy it?! You can't be everywhere at once, and you will miss out on so much if you're not in the moment. Believe me, I've tried to photograph my own events (same goes for vacations!). I'm so happy when families invite me into their important moments. It's seriously an honor to document the day so they can actually be a part of it. I hope you enjoy this one!

How cute is this Pinterest worthy Once Upon a Time themed baby shower? Instead of your typical Disney Princess stuff, each table had a centerpieces from different stories like Snow White, Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Frozen, The Little Mermaid (my favorite!) and Beauty and the Beast.

Before all the festivities, we got to sneak in a few minutes for a quickie maternity session (including the dog!). Thanks to a local friend, we had a quiet spot off the beaten path with delicious sunlight peeking through the leaves.

I absolutely love little Skylar. I set out to do something different this summer and wanted more than just mini sessions with kids running off into the fields. I want something Pinterest-y (that's a word). I've decided to keep the setup up another couple of days. You see, this might be one of my last mini sessions offered. Well- let me clarify. I will only take group bookings moving forward. So much time (& money) goes into setting up these types of shoots and I want to make sure we make a day out of it with your friends and families.

I know summer is barely over, but before the holiday season is here start rounding up your girlfriends for your group's interest list. Email me so we can discuss holiday themed stylized shoots and have plenty of time to prepare. Send me your Pinterest inspired ideas and let's make amazing images that your family will keep (and not toss away after the holidays are over-oops!)

Enjoy!

xoxo,

Meo
