On the evening of
Thursday, August 23rd, 2018, KLJ Studios Photographers had the pleasure of
photographing One-Year Milestone Portraits, and Family Portraits with Angela,
Anthony, and Ollie. Angela, Ollie's mom, loves going to the movies. Anthony,
Ollie's Dad, is a huge sports fanatic, and his favorite team is the Giants.
Ollie, the Birthday Boy, is a very charismatic one-year-old and is quite the
connoisseur of "Chuggington Station". Ollie is celebrating is 1st
Birthday in style at KLJ Studios by smashing a lovely cake with his bare-hands
as he gets his Cake-Smash Portraits taken with a KLJ Studios Photographer
In-Studio at KLJ Studios located in Historic Downtown Woodland, California
(95695). The beautiful Beehive Cake for Ollie's first birthday was provided by
Erin Morris of Zest Fresh Pastry West (https://www.facebook.com/zestfreshpastrywest/).
The Lead Photographer for the Session was KLJ Studios Lead Photographer Kelly
Lynn Jordan, the KLJ Studios Second Shooter was Aimee Wallace, and the KLJ
Studios Beauty Studio Makeup Artist was Veronica Marshall.
During the family's
session Ollie had a lovely time not only smashing a tasty cake, but also
smudging mommy's makeup all over her. Ollie initially ran away from the
gigantic beehive cake but soon discovered it was edible and delicious. The cake
was so large that we were all able to have some. When everyone began trying the
cake, we learned that Anthony does not like bananas. We thought the cake was
delicious, and when we offered a slice to Anthony and suggested he try it, his
first response was, "Not if it has bananas." Well the cake did not
have bananas, it was a delicious vanilla concoction.
The thing we love
about Erin's cakes at Zest West is that she uses locally sourced and natural
ingredients in all her deserts, and when she prepares a cake for our
one-year-olds she always makes sure to keep the sugar to a very minimal level.
We aren't sure how Erin at Zest Fresh Pastry West does it, but every time we
try a cake she has made, its always perfectly balanced, the best cake we've
ever had, and also absolutely stunningly beautiful.
A few other notes
from the session: Kelly Lynn and Angela are both Delta Gamma Sisters! Angela is
still very active with Delta Gamma, and Kelly Lynn learned about several
upcoming Delta Gamma Events in which she would like to take part. Also, Anthony
fell in love with Kelly's new kitten Periwinkle and was interested in booking a
photoshoot with the cat, lol.
Photographer Tip for
Parents: Having a theme for Cake Smash Portraits makes for a much more dynamic
portrait. Great job Angela and Anthony on your brilliant theme choice!
Thank you Angela,
Anthony and Ollie. We always love having you in the studio and can't wait for
future sessions together!
