daphne {one year photoshoot}

Two weeks ago Daphne and I dropped off Eloise at school and headed down to SoDo for her one year mini photoshoot with Ashley, who did our Christmas card photoshoot in the fall. (If you are local, I HIGHLY recommend her!) It wasn’t the best time for Daphne (right after lunch is her favorite time of day, or first thing in the morning) but since we were confined to Eloise’s school schedule and I didn’t want to be driving thru downtown anytime in the late afternoon, I picked 10 am which is right when Daphne’s usual morning nap is. Generally speaking, I can get away with planning something at this time once or twice per week and Daphne just goes with it, taking a longer afternoon nap (which will be her new schedule in the coming months).

But for whatever reason, she was not ready to be in front of the camera on that particular morning. Of course. Luckily, Ashley is amazing behind the camera and I did have a paci and snacks for Daphne which we bribed her with between photos. I was so nervous during and after the shoot that we weren’t going to get anything where Daphne wasn’t crying or sucking on a paci… it’s a miracle for sure. While I am sad that we didn’t get the delightfully happy Daphne that we all love, there are some great photos here!

Isn’t that d is for daphne sweatshirt adorable? I bought it a while ago for this photoshoot and saved it in Daphne’s closet so it didn’t get stained (because #toddlers) BUT it barely fit over her belly when we put it on for the shoot! So she’s been wearing it about every other day since then so I can get the cost per wear down. (Ha!)

Grandparents: let me know which one(s) you want printed!

Happy happy first year Daphne Lucille!
