It was such a pleasure to capture this cutie's first birthday cake smash — but as her mom and grandma will testify — it wasn't easy work. It took a lot of work from the three of us to get her to smile.  Cake smashFirst birthday photo shoot

We played Baby Shark, we sang, danced, rolled around on the floor, jumped up and down. Nothing seemed to work. We even enlisted my cats to walk around to see if they could get her to smile. 

I thought for sure once the cake was placed deliciously on the ground in front of her, we would get a smile.

Nothing.

It was en EPIC staring contest. And she was winning.

Enter: Grandma.

She got down on the floor next to me and started tickling her granddaughter. 

Sure enough, the giggling started. There were squeals, laughs, and plenty of smiles to go around. 

Looking at the beautiful smile, it was well worth the work, and the wait.

Happy first birthday!
