Three months ago, I met little Tatum for her 9 month portraits. This past weekend, we met again for her one year pictures. Jessica, Tatum's Barbie-look-alike Mama, had some very specific ideas for the session. So specific, in fact, that when the bakery made a smash cake with neon polka dots (that would not match the dress or balloons in the shot), Jessica decided to make one on her own. Love. It. Daddy Dylan, ever so dapper in his white TOMS, was such a sport as we went through several outfit and scenery changes. But the big props go to Tyler, Jessica's nephew, who got up at the crack of dawn to come play Jessica's assistant (and, consequently, mine). Tatum is walking now, is interested in every single thing around her, and is apparently obsessed with finding a moose (ask Dylan). With the most delicious lips you've ever seen, she is one beautiful little girl. Jessica, you did a great job coordinating the outfits, the bows, the cake, the balloons ... Thank you so much for letting me share in your little girl's big milestone! Hope the party was a success, and enjoy your sneak!
