Sweet Mercer Monroe! A little over a year ago I walked into an event for my job and met her Momma. We were both pregnant and swapped stories about everything we had been experiencing so far, everything we had planned, and everything in between. And we’ve been “mom friends” ever since! It has been so much watching Mercer grow this past year! She’s clearly ADORED and the center of her Momma and Daddy’s whole world.

We met at White Moose Studios to capture the little birthday princess in all her glory-with a tutu, a giant balloon, and CAKE of course!! Mercer is no stranger to sweets because her aunt is a baker and has her own business, Mixed Sugar. It was obvious she knew exaaaaactly what to do with that cake when she finally got to sit in front of it. She was one happy baby, and I’m pretty sure her faces during that cake smash are how we allllllll feel about cake!

Happy happy 1st Birthday, Mercer Monroe!
