Mave’s First Birthday

May 17, 2015

Miss Mave proves that everyone should have a crown you can dip in icing and lick clean.

This was the fastest Cake Smash session ever! It was going to rain any minute, big Colorado thunderheads all around us, in fact it was raining on me as I drove up from Denver to Golden. But the cake had been acquired and the props assembled, so we decided to give it a whirl. And then it didn’t rain- we flew through the session with nary a drop- giving Mave plenty of time to enjoy her cake!

Mave’s mom and grandma are both occupational therapists, and it was a good lesson for me that what you think might be bothering a child might not really be the problem. A lot of kids dig right in to cake, and a lot of kids don’t love being dirty and slimy with icing. But it might be that your cute vintage high chair is a little scary, or it might be that the tutu is a little itchy, or it might be that everyone is suddenly really far away, and that’s why the baby is crying- not the cake. The more we paired things back, the happier Mave was, and then she loved the cake. She loved it so much she stuck her little toes right in!

Happy Birthday Mave! -A&D

Awe, what a cutie for sure! I love her little crown. Adorable!

I have to say I would have never thought to do a cake smash at this location but it is perfect. She is such a cutie and you captured some fun moments during her cake smash session.

She is adorable! Great job!!

You did a fantastic job. Maeve and her family look beautiful. I love the first sentence, you could’ve stopped writing right there. “a crown you can dip in cake and lick clean.” who doesn’t want one of those?

This is such a little beauty! The cuteness is just too much <3

What a cute session! Mave looks like she enjoyed herself as well. 🙂

What an awesome little personality, great work capturing it!!
