That's right, this little lady just turned one! Can you believe it? It's hard to believe that I've been photographing Lily for a year now. She has grown faster than I could have believed. It was so much fun to celebrate with this little girl and her family.

Lily's parents threw a Lady Bug themed party and it was ADORABLE. They had everything from Lady Bug cake to a color coordinated tutu for the birthday girl.

The party was an intimate gathering of family and close friends. You could just feel the love coming out of that room! Freddie, Lily's Dad, smoked the pork bbq himself and we had a small feast. Instead of cards for Lily, they had everyone sign one of her Cat in the Hat books so that as she grows up she will be able to know everyone who was at her first birthday party. So sweet! However my favorite moment had to be watching Lily discover her cake. I say "discover" because she didn't smash it, she just investigated it more and more.
