First Birthday Celebration – Paola’s Vinum Chicago, IL

Dressed in her very own sari, Miss A wobbled around the restaurant soaking in hugs and kisses from friends and family that had come to celebrate her first year of life.  Her blue silk dress and moccasins were the perfect attire as she showed off her walking and jumping skills to the other party goers.

Miss A turned a year old this spring and her parents put together a circus themed birthday party complete with big top decorations, colorful favors for the guests, and a special elephant cake for the birthday girl.  They chose Paola’s Vinum in Chicago for her first birthday celebration.  The open floor plan and floor to ceiling windows provided loads of natural light for portraits and candid photos, which made for one happy photographer.

A’s mom took special care to have a separate section set apart with activities for the kids at the party and the parents were able to dine and drink at high top tables throughout the entire restaurant.  She put so much thought into making the party enjoyable for all of the guests that it was plain to see how compassionate and thoughtful she is toward her friends and family.

Thank you, Nagesh and Sona for inviting me to capture your daughter’s special celebration.  Happy first birthday, A!
