First birthday’s can make a kid smile!

When we think of birthdays, we think of the person who’s getting older.  Not the parents of the birthday boy or girl.  They have just as much to celebrate as the one blowing the candles out.  Through my conversations with Fiona, I realized this first birthday shoot had more meaning behind it.

Back in 2006, Fiona was diagnosed with breast cancer and starting a family was put on hold.  Something I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy.  Today she has Max.  She kicked cancers butt and now has the perfect family.

To celebrate everything that Sept. 2 means to this family, we did a shoot that incorporated all elements.  Including a giant number 1 sign that Max painted with his body.  Not only is he freaking cute…..he’s talented too!

Happy 1st Birthday Max (Fiona and Ryan)!  Hope the day was full of joy and yummy cake!
