There is something extra special about photographing a baby throughout their entire first year. I first met this sweet little girl for her newborn session, welcomed her back into the studio for her six-month milestone, and now had the privilege of photographing her first birthday session. Watching those tiny newborn features turn into this happy, expressive little personality is one of my favorite parts of being a San Antonio baby photographer.
For her one-year portraits, we created three completely different looks while keeping the session playful, feminine, and full of personality.
We started with a soft pink and white balloon setup accented with greenery and delicate florals. Her dusty rose romper, little floral headband, and oversized wooden number one kept everything sweet and timeless. And that smile! At one year old, sitting still is definitely optional, which is exactly why I love capturing all the little expressions, movements, and personality that come with this age.
Her second setup brought in a beautiful garden-inspired backdrop filled with florals, butterflies, blush pink, and soft green. The sage dress was perfect against all those colors and gave us another completely different look for her birthday gallery.
And of course, we finished with the cake!
Her cake smash session was bright, colorful, and fun with coral, turquoise, pink, white, and gold balloons. Whether babies delicately investigate their cake or dive right in, cake smash portraits are always one of the most entertaining ways to celebrate turning one.
Getting to photograph this little girl as a newborn, at six months, and now at one year has been such a beautiful reminder of just how quickly that first year passes.
If your baby’s first birthday is coming up, now is the perfect time to begin planning their milestone or cake smash session in my San Antonio studio.

If your baby has a first birthday coming up, planning their session ahead of time gives us the opportunity to create a gallery that celebrates exactly who they are at ONE!
