For little {D} they decided to do an UP themed photo session for his first birthday, getting the 1yo with a basket and balloons in a field surrounded by trees. What a super cute way to do first birthday family photography!

First Birthday Family Photography

This is a great example of a first birthday photo session for a 1yo baby son. It was done in a green, grass field surrounded by trees, like a forest glen. Often a theme is chosen for a first birthday, since it’s such a special event. Some like to do a cake smash, while some will have a watermelon smash, or a farm themed birthday photoshoot.
