I met this family bright and early for a session full of baby snuggles and cake eating in celebration of this little guy's first birthday. As soon as I pulled my camera out, he flashed me the best smile and I knew this was going to be a good session.

This was such a sweet family. It was apparent from the beginning of the session just how much they love each other- and how obsessed they are with their baby! And it turns out that our husbands work together and we have a few mutual friends. It's funny how small the world is!

We walked around Downtown Charleston and hit the "hot spots"- Rainbow Row and Waterfront Park- and then headed to White Point Gardens for some cake.

You would never know from the pictures, but K didn't actually eat any cake! He might win the title for "Messiest Cake Smasher Who Didn't Actually Eat Any Cake." He loved running his hands through the cake though.

K, I hope you have a wonderful dinosaur birthday party and that year #2 is full of many wonderful memories!

Whenever I get an inquiry about a cake smash I get excited. When I got an email about photographing not one, but two baby's first birthday smash I'm pretty sure I said, "YES!!!" out loud at my computer! Two little ones eating cake at the same time, sign me up!

We started the session with some portraits. Even big sister got to jump in for a few, which the boys were a little unsure about. Poor Finn was actually a little unsure about the entire process, but Larsen came in ready for his close up. Finn finally warmed up to the camera a little when the cakes came out and sat quietly eating his cake. Larsen was still his crazy self and even tried some iceskating in his cake icing - which ended with him sitting on his brother's cake.

By the end of the session, everyone was blue (mom and dad included!) and everyone's tummy hurt from laughing so hard.
