I had the privilege a few weekends ago to photograph this lovely lady for her first birthday … I was asked by her mother to do a first year and cake smash session at their gorgeous home in Murrayville, IL

she was more than willing to cooperate and even was the perfect model for the day! Nora was so well behaved , she was bright eyed from a recent nap and of course dressed in the cutest outfits!

Nora is sure to brighten your day with her gorgeous smile and bubbly personality !

she just was too cute while playing with the pretty sunflowers.

check out this pretty girl with her sunglasses on! 

I just adored the “monkey on the bed” theme of this portion of the shoot because Nora just loves monkeys and her mom and dad were behind the camera 

making monkey noises making her smile in these photos! How cute !!
