The last few months have been difficult for family and friends to gather in-person to celebrate important life milestones. But, we can still celebrate those landmark achievements together!

Additional precautions were taken with a self-assessment health screening questionnaire, social distancing was practiced, and I wore a mask to safeguard everyone’s safety. It’s always better to err on the side of caution, as I understand that everyone has different levels of comfort when it comes to social interactions during this unprecedented time. Because of that, a few additional preparations, such as ensuring that the room that we would be utilizing had enough working distance to remain socially distant were planned out in advance.

This precious baby girl’s mother put together this amazing DIY balloon arch decoration all by herself! The bright yellow sun, smiling clouds with colourful rainbows, and pink balloons with glitter made for such a fun and adorable backdrop. The day before the session, she sent me some photographs of the decor setup (the first time that she showed me what she was envisioning), and I was blown away! They also had a fun little ball pit to play in too! Such great attention to detail, which totally resonated with me, as I definitely think that way too ;)

When children are this young, it’s best to schedule the photo session during a time when they are well-rested and well-fed. So, right after baby woke up from her nap, we were able to get started! After the session wrapped up, baby got the opportunity to nap again :)
