NJ Child Photographer ~Veronica~

I cannot WAIT to go to this little lady’s first birthday party this weekend, Breakfast at Tiffany’s style!

Miss Veronica most certainly looked the part during her first birthday photo shoot in my Hunterdon County, NJ studio. I have been friends with her Mommy for so many years now, it makes my heart happy to have seen her family grow. Photographing Veronica and her big brother Mason has given me such joy. I love them all so much!

As a child photographer in Clinton, NJ, I get to create all birthday sessions to be special in their own way. Whether it’s a theme, favorite colors, a celebration of the first year’s milestones or just capturing your child’s expressions, a birthday photo shoot is always unique. This birthday session was extra special because Jill and I started out as coworkers years ago and now have more reasons to stay close: our children. We shot the session in two parts (and she came from Staten Island both times!). Of course, in keeping with the party theme, we decked out the studio with Tiffany bags, accents (including a hand painted chandelier by me – fun!), and perfect styling by mom. The images with the vintage headboard are a nod to the part of the movie where there’s a pajama scene. My friend even got the sleeping mask to match! Everything was perfectly coordinated down to the last detail.

And because mommy has been wanting the shot for so long, we HAD to do the Louboutin heels! This girl has STYLE!

For the second part, I styled a girlie sunset shoot complete with lace tent, ruffled and fun accent pillows, flowers, a magic wand (every girl needs one!) and some glitter starts. It was so ethereal and magical…BUT it almost didn’t happen. A passing summer rainstorm had us waiting it out in the car. In the end, it was all worth it as the sun came out and so did Veronica’s smiles. Perfect! And some of my favorite images to date!
Happy Birthday, Veronica! May all your wishes come true!
