1 year old session

Happy 1st Birthday, Cody! Wow, what a beautiful setting for Cody's Doljanchi Ceremony ( Korean 1st Birthday).   Everything was decorated beautifully. Cody's Doljanchi ceremony was held at Ohgane Korean Restaurant in Oakland.  There were about 120 guests joined to celebrate Cody's special day! There were face paining and balloon twister for kids to enjoy and I captured lots of smiles throughout the party. The highlight of a doljanchi is a ritual where a child is placed in front of food and objects. The child is urged to pick one, and the item the child pick is believed to foretell the child's future. This ritual is called Doljabi. Guess what Cody picked!  He picked coin which is for Weathy/Entrepreneur! Thank you for having me to photograph this special milestone for Cody!

Happy 1st Birthday, Jackson!  I love photographing 1 year old milestone family session!  It's a big milestone for baby as well as for mom and dad! Baby's first year is filled with milestone and time just flies by.... and this session's theme was " time flies" Isn't this adorable?  T-shirts, cake, hat, decoration, everything was hand made by super creative mom. Amazing! Cake smash session is such a fun way to remember ...  Jackson had fun playing with cake ;-) Happy 1st Birthday, Jackson!
