I can’t believe that sweet little Yeab is now a whole one year old! I first met this family a year ago for his newborn photo session, got to see him again around 6 months old, and now it’s such a joy to celebrate his first birthday with his family with a cake smash and splash bath. He was such a serious little dude this time around but I did my very best to capture some of his sneaky smiles and we certainly got a few.

Yeab was so quiet and serious when we first got started but he sure looked dashing in his little bow tie and suspenders. He is now able to fully stand for a few seconds unassisted so it was fun to photograph a few of him next to letters spelling ONE to show off his new skills.

We also captured a few updated family portraits both with just mom or dad, then the whole family together. His mom also requested some of him holding his parents hands and I love how Yeab slowly started to open up to me and give some sneaky smiles around then.

Yeab then had a fabulous cake smash but he mostly was unsure of what all the fuss was about and happily ate puffs instead. He was curious about the icing or why it stuck to his hands, but mostly just enjoyed giving it a few tastes or cleaning his hands on the floor.

We ended with a simple splash bath and I love how he truly opened up and got more adventurous in the bath. He put the ducks in his mouth and thought that was hilarious, and even gave a few actual splashes. He was such a cutie and we all enjoyed watching him just have fun in the little tub.

I wish him the happiest birthday and am so glad I was able to be part of all these special memories over the past year. Cheers to many more to come!
