BIRTHDAY GIRL

Some friends of ours asked me to take photos at their daughter's first birthday. The party was great fun with every little detail thought through, too bad the birthday girl wont remember any of it. At least she'll have the photos she can look back on when she's older. She also had some really cute friends. Here's a sneak peek.

LET'S DOHL UP

I recently had the privilege of documenting a traditional Korean first birthday, known as a dohl. The family, Jewish and Korean, does a great job of teaching their children about customs from both cultures. Korean dohl's are a big deal, with more than 100 guests all waiting for the little guest of honor to pick his/her destiny by selecting either rice (health), yarn (long life), money (wealth) or books (scholarship). Have a look at this handsome family.
