i’ve had a couple of awesome willette followers email me asking if i had a “shot list” for birthday parties. and, though i am not an event photographer or a kiddie party photographer, i DO have a little list here. i’m super happy to share it with all of you mommas, daddys and photographers. this is my “must have” shot list for children’s birthday parties!

i’m in the midst of planning baby girl flossie’s first birthday party as i write this (can you believe baby girl will be one in four short weeks). this is going to come in handy as i plan for her birthday (and, if you’re local to me and reading this….does anyone know any children’s birthday party photographers? i’m in the need for one for sunday, december 12th).

and no post is complete without a photo. this one is from my son’s birthday party two years ago (it was a star wars part at tidewater gymnastics academy).

just wanted to share this amazing new tool that i recently discovered…..the moirai storyboard creator. this tool is so easy to use….makes storyboard creation super easy. i’m looking foward to using it for my blog photos….nice to mix up the photo layouts a bit. The photoshop script basically does all the work for you…the hardest part is trying to decide which photos you want to place in the collage. thought i’d share! visit the site and see how easy it is!

also, here are a couple more shots from my mommy and me posing guide! super fun!!!!
