Leap!

It was a hot-chocolate-drinking, puddle-jumping kind of day...
Wet socks and pants resulted, but it was worth it.

Happy Leap Year!

Ryan's First Birthday - Full Post

Little Ryan is one!
His family held an intimate baseball-themed lunch party at Catal's in Downtown Disney, styled by Jane of Jane: An Event Design and Coordination Co.. (The food was delicious and the restaurant staff were so helpful and polite - I told my husband that we have to go back there for a date night!) 

I loved all the details of his party (especially the cake - I later found out it was a beautifully decorated fondant shell, not edible) and those Big League chewing gum bags and Cracker Jacks brought me back to my childhood...a great idea for a boy's party~
 If you are planning a party in the near future and need ideas for a great dessert/head table, Celebrations at Home has a helpful post on how to put one together.

Thank you so much to Stacy and Wonny for having me capture a special day and to Jane for beautifying it all~

Happy First Birthday Ryan, you are dearly loved!

Ethan's First Birthday

One of my favorite ages to capture is one year olds...they are so adorable, almost ready to walk, and full of emotions. Although throwing a dol (traditional Korean first birthday) can seem daunting to parents (especially when there are professionals here in LA that solely cater to decorating dols), a smaller scale, intimate dol decorated by yourself is just as wonderful. 


Here are some images from a party last fall that never made it to the blog...


My fave detail was the wooden toy (below) that his mommy brought for decoration- apparently, it had been her own toy when she was a little girl. So precious!


Enjoy~
