Riley's 1st Birthday / Cake Smash Session {Child Photography, Pittsburgh PA}

In just over a year since meeting this sweet family, I've had the opportunity to photograph them several times. I always love meeting families who you instantly feel comfortable with and look forward to seeing them for their session. This family is definitely in that amazing category. For this session, we met up at Beechwood Farms, which as we arrived, dad Brian remembered going there as a child. So, it was fun walking around and exploring this amazing park that he remembered fondly of from his childhood. After taking family photos, we focused on Riley's first birthday photos and ended with her smash cake. Doing a smash cake is so much fun because you never know how they are going to react. Some kids go face first, others are cautious. Riley was a bit of both; cautious at first but once she got a taste of her beautiful cake, she went all in! Big sister Layla was helping as my assistant in setting up Riley's cake and I think she was hoping for a piece after Riley was finished. These sweet sisters were so much fun to photograph and I look forward to future sessions with this amazing family!
