Our friend and fellow photographer is turning 30 next month. She is super light hearted and a super silly, but for this shoot, we amped up the classiness

Is this not a cuteness overload or what! I did  this sweet family’s maternity session last year at the beach and it was one of my favorite sessions to date! We shot in Carlsbad California.

When one of my besties and fellow wedding photographer came to us wanting a completely original  styled adult birthday cake smash I was all in! You have seen it done before but I bet you have never seen it done like this! Every last detail was all our own.Racheal is obsessed with pineapples so naturally, we had to include the most epic pineapple cake. Not to mention this was pineapple flavored and gluten free! All you cake artist know how hard it is to have a pineapple cake stand up like this when it is gluten free, right? I don’t know if her big smiles are from knowing that she was about to eat cake for the first time in 10 years or that we were just having that much fun! We actually shot all of these in our home studio AKA our downstairs living room. We had such a great time. I will definitely want to more of these in the future for sure! Happy 22 miss Racheal!
