We have decided to bring Lycia to her 1st Birthday Photoshoot. The 1st is always the most memorable and exciting.. 1st Photoshot, 1st birthday celebration, 1st birthday cake etc.. hopefully mummy will have the passion to do it every year for Lycia. :)
Photoshots took place at Sembawang a housing premise.. found the studio from SMH again (my favourite forum).
Booked the appointment on 20th July, 2 weeks before Lycia Birthday celebration on the 6th Aug as was hoping to have the photos ready to show friends and relatives.
On the day itself, we let Lycia wear her birthday suits.. a pure white dress which Daddy bought from a french shop at suntec at a hefty price of $40 plus.. hmmmm mummy feel a bit heartpinch so didn't let Daddy buy in the 1st place but Daddy secretly went down to suntec again to buy the dress as daddy find that it is the best dress for Lycia bb on her 1st birthday.. pure and sweet.. but sadly the size for Lycia was not available at suntec branch and daddy have to make a trip all the way to Tanglin Mall to buy it.
The Photoshoot was quite awkward from the start as the photographer cannot get Lycia in her mood. Lycia keep crawling away from the setting and we have to try to get her back to the spot using balls, books, toys etc to attract her.. tiring for mummy, daddy and grand parents.. finally have to restore to using biscuits to bribe her to get into position but biscuits only can work wonders for a while which Lycia soon lose her patient trying to get in pose. Our last resort is her favourite "Bao Bao" which Ye Ye hurry went to buy.. finally we can get our photoshots done in 1 hr plus time.
What a memorable day! :)
