First birthday photo shoot

[skiesthelimit]

Is anyone getting one done?  I have one booked, I got a really good deal.  49$ for a 1 hour session and 20 digital prints.  I was going to do the whole first birthday theme with a cake smash but I'm having second thoughts.  I think I may just do a normal photo shoot and have some family photos done too.  I'm just thinking that a family photo would be money better spent than having pics of DS eating cake.  But I'm torn...  What are y'all doing?

A friend is doing ours (she is a photographer though) we don't have a time limit (well besides a grumpy baby time limit.) I have a cute dress and will do some of just her and some family, then change her to her tutu for balloon pictures and end with smash cake in a birthday onesie. That's my plan at least!

We will be getting family pictures and 1 year pictures done, but nothing with a cake. His first cake will be at his party

This for us too.

I am going to take my own without a cake. I plan on going to the park or something.

I have one booked. Not sure what we will do. I like the balloon pics a lot though. Might do a cake smash but we do family pics all the time so i don't mind wasting the session and makingit all about him.

we had a photographer do 6month pics and have her booked to do 1 year as well on Apr 14
here are some of the 6month: babeletbaberstein.blogspot.com/2012/10/photobomb-professional-photos-and.html

we did a combination of just him and family pics.



For the 1 year I'm planning on family pics with coordinating outfits (plaid shirt for Luke, green for DH and teal for me- still shopping for us)

Then I'm planning to do his one year pics some with his party shirt on, then a cake smash.

Cheapo Target with a Cake smash and some formals... We'll see how they come out. I have a coupon so it will be cheap. I can always set something up here too somewhat (I take ok photos).

I splurged and booked one. We didn't get newborn pictures so I really want some nice 1year pictures. I'm waiting until May 2nd so I can do them outside at the farm I grew up riding at. I'm really excited for them.

A normal shoot but we might throw in a cake at the end. $49 is a great deal. We are paying like 4x's that not including prints. Eek!

After getting really good, expensive pics and really good inexpensive pics, I think I am just going to have my friend, the hobbyist, do them. I plan to do them outside as soon as we have a nice day. Springlike and such!

That's a really good deal!
I'm not sure what we are doing. I think I may just make the background cute at her b-day party and set the highchair in good light and do cake photos then.

I have one booked and we plan to do a balloon shot and a family shot. We won't be doing cake. I'm thinking 3 different outfits for her which I obsess over daily. If the weather is nice we will be outside but if not then the studio.
