It’s birthday time at my house! It really does seem like yesterday that Kate was riding around on my hip babbling about the Wiggles. Crazy to think she is now one year away from double digits. Somebody stop the clock or get Michael J. Fox to bring over the DeLorean.
We recently celebrated Kate’s 9th birthday with a girly party at Cutie Patootie Kids Spa in downtown Matthews. The girls had manicures, pedicures, karaoke, cake and more. She loved it. They all did . . . even little bro got to show off a few dance moves.
Hiring a professional photographer to capture your child’s birthday is the perfect way for you to enjoy the moment and be a part of the fun. Trust me your kids will love looking back at pictures of you when they are older. After all, we were there too! Mine already love anything I’m in better than ones of themselves. I think they just love seeing their parents having fun too.
Contact me for more information on hiring a professional photographer to capture your next big family event. It’s worth it on so many levels. Yes, taking one job off your party planning plate is huge – so much less stress. But the biggest win (aside from the awesome images) is that you simply get to enjoy the party and live in the moment with your kids. After the event, parents always tell me how much they enjoyed really being present and how excited they are to have professional images to prove it.
