In the mood for a little pick-me-up to brighten your Thursday? How does some fun, summer-inspired eye candy sound?! You’re in for a treat today, friends!
Have you ever wondered what happens when one of the best in the industry throws her daughter a backyard birthday party?! Well THIS is your answer! Cuteness to. the. max!
Now, of course, we specialize in photographing weddings and engagements, so we typically don’t photograph things like this, but when our sweet friend Lindsey (who runs one of our favorite venues in town, El Chorro) asked us about to be a part of this event, and explained her idea for her daughter Makena’s backyard flamingo themed soiree — a “flamingle” if you will — to celebrate her turning two, we just couldn’t resist! And with some of the best of the best designing the paper products (Idieh Deisgn), the florals (Carte Blanche), and the desserts and treats (Ruze Cake House), Makena’s birthday party quickly became one of the most amazing birthday parties we’ve ever attended! It was so fun to spend time with friends, watch the kids indulge in a sugar-overload and photograph all the cuteness, which we just had to share with you today! Enjoy!
