First Birthday Celebration, Hillsboro OR Milestone Photographer

Strawberry and lemon fruit bath to celebrate Evie's first birthday in Hillsboro, Oregon.

In another life (or even just a couple years ago) I used to be a photographer who was all about setting up the perfect theme in my home studio with cake and props and all the goodies. Honestly, seeing a tot upset about the opportunity to eat cake was always the best (I love a good crying photo), but I really really really loved getting to the bubble bath at the end. Now, I’m not a studio photographer anymore and 90% of my sessions are organic in location, so I looked for a way to combine that organic feel and still have a bath during a First Birthday Celebration.

Say hello to the FRUIT BATH!

Plenty of noms, splashing, and all over adorableness. B
onus – fruit is a fantastic alternative to families who are not sure about their little having cake, frosting, and processed sugar if their bodies aren’t used to it.

Following a baby from birth through this huge milestone is so exciting!

Full disclosure – yesterday my daughter couldn’t stop singing “Fruit Salad” by the Wiggles, and even now I can’t get it out of my head.
“Fruit salad, yummy yummy…”

    a bittersweet farewell…

    It is with a heavy heart that I announce the closure of Meg Ross Photography. After much reflection and consideration following the death of my husband and children's father, I have made the difficult decision to close my business. This decision was not made lightly, and it comes after a great deal of contemplation about healing from grief and how to best show up for my children..

     

    I want to express my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you for allowing me to be a part of your special moments. It has been an honor and a privilege to capture the beauty and emotion of childbirth for so many families. Your trust and support have meant the world to me, and I am truly grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of your lives.

     

    Hugs and oxytocin,
    Meg Ross
