Happy Birthday Andrew! {Los Angeles Birthday Party Photographer}

This weekend I photographed Andrew's 1st Birthday celebration at Maggiano's at The Grove and it was yet another fantastic event! Andrew's mom was the ultimate "do-it-yourself-er" and her attention to detail was impeccable. The party's theme was Elephant & Friends and the color scheme was classic blue and white. I was excited to see my favorite balloon artist was there (David from Balloon Twister) to entertain both the kids and adults :) The party even had a puppet show at the end which was a fantastic way to keep the kids entertained while the adults chatted and finished dessert. Here are just a few of the many adorable photos from Andrew's party...

Happy First Birthday Nathan! {Culver City Baby Photography}

Little Nathan was, in a word, rad. He was such a chill little baby, much like his super-cool parents - smiling serenely and watching intently as his party went on all around him, relatives and friends alike kissing and hugging him like crazy - and it was one rockin' party - complete with amazing under-sea decor, conceived by his creative mom and awesome event planner Twinkle Events. There were even goldfish swimming around in the beautiful display! It was adorable, and you could tell it was absolutely infused with fun and the joy of everyone who came - tons of smiles and lots of fun stuff for the kids - including a fantastic bubble show thanks to an amazing Bubblologist (didn't even know there was such a magical thing!) at Bubble Mania and Co. - they even allowed all the kids to take turns getting encapuslated in their own personal bubble! Seems like a wonderful time was had by all, thanks for having us there to capture it!

William's 1st Birthday at Gyenari! {Culver City Event Photographer}

This was yet another FABULOUS birthday party at Gyenari coordinated by the fabulous Sally Shin of Harvest Event Design & Coordination! Though the weather outside was frightful, the party inside was absolutely delightful :) Little William was a total doll and the decorations and entertainment were over the top. We had a great time photographing William's special day, here are a few of our favorite images from his Dohl.

Logan's 1st Birthday Party! {Los Angeles 1st Birthday Photographer}

We photographed Logan's 1st birthday party this past weekend at the Miyako Hybrid Hotel and WOW was it amazing! I've been to my share of children's birthday parties and this one ranked as one of the best. My personal favorite... the balloon artist! David from Balloon Twister blew everyone's mind with his creations... not just swords and puppies here folks! KIKI events also did a fabulous job with this party, as usual! Of course Logan was the star of this show and he was such a trooper throughout the whole party and looked super adorable in each of his outfits. Happy Birthday Logan, thanks for having us at your party!

Noah's 1st Birthday at the Tin Roof! {Manhattan Beach 1st Birthday Party}

Last month we photographed Noah's super mod 1st Birthday Party at The Tin Roof in Manhattan Beach. The party was so classic and modern, the perfect fit for this uber chic family. The food here looked amazing and I can personally attest that the cupcakes (made by the kids' school teacher) were fantastic and the perfect fall dessert treat. The party was a huge hit and here are just a few photos to prove it... enjoy!
