Happy Birthday Raquel | South Florida Family Photographer
Happy first birthday sweet Raquel. Raquel is not only the youngest of 4 gorgeous children, she’s the ONLY girl. Raquel has three older brothers. So there’s no denying that she holds a very special place in her mama’s heart. To capture this princess’s birthday we broke up the custom portrait session into 2 parts. The first session took place at home, and the second at the studio for the smash cake. First off, I have to give huge props to her mama, Francine. She did an amazing job designing Raquel’s nursery. Francine is owner of Give Wink, Miami’s premier baby and kid’s boutique. From furniture (with design services available on site), baby gear, gifts, and toys, Give Wink has it ALL. Just take a look at that crib. Only one word…FABULOUS.
I love that we incorporated a small family heirloom. This small red leather purse that belonged to her mama as a young girl.
I did mention her three older brothers…..HANDSOME! Something tells me Raquel is in very good hands.
See you soon,
court

I never thought I’d have to plan another first birthday, let alone a girly one. More than six years after our youngest was born, Raquel arrived. The most unexpected surprise since previous medical complications made a fourth child an impossibility. Yet, that’s one of life’s greatest gifts – an absolute miracle. When I started to plan Her first birthday, I knew I wanted to capture every second and hold on to it forever. I met Courtney a short time before and knew she was perfect for the job. I look at the pictures on a daily basis and my eyes water at the beauty of the photos. She captured the essence of our special day. Courtney, thanks a million times over. I’m glad our paths crossed and honored that you shared this special day with us. It’s the first of many you know – you won’t get rid of us now! You are the best photographer in town!
