Kyla turns 1 | Nashville birthday party photographer

I’ll admit it: planning parties is not my gift.

I have friends and clients who are able to take a theme and RUN with it.  They figure out ways to incorporate the theme into every aspect of the party– from decorations to food to activities and so on.  They think of things that would have never even crossed my mind.  Kyla’s mama falls into this category.  The party theme was bubbles, which you’ll see below.  Guys, the sidewalk and the table were lined with bubblewrap.  Oh my goodness.  So fun.  Many of you saw a sneak peak last night on Facebook of the cake, which was made by Kyla’s great aunt.  The detail on it (especially those handmade “bubbles”) blew me away.  There were two bubble machines operating– one in front of the house and one in the back.  There was a bubble station in the back, complete with “filling station” in a drink dispenser so the kids could refill toys for blowing more bubbles.  Guests were given bubbles and Blow Pops when they left.  Oh and yes– that is a giant “1” covered in photos on the front porch. 🙂

Kyla had a great time and was surrounded by lots of friends and family as she celebrated.  She got to play, swing, eat, and smash a cake, which makes for a pretty good birthday in my book.  Kyla was really generous and shared her cake with BOTH parents and her grandfather!  That made for some pretty funny photos. There was a beautiful spot in her backyard, so I took the family back there for some more posed images before the party began. I was thrilled to get to join them and photograph her birthday party!
