Five Friends’ Garden Tea Party Themed Birthday Celebration

August 12, 2019

When it comes to family celebrations, our co-owner, Alice Park, does them right! We dare you not to smile from ear to ear while viewing the 5th birthday celebration of her daughter Elise (and 4 of Elise’s friends). From the delightful balloon installation and exquisite garden tea party themed details, to the girls’ matching dresses, this was definitely a party to remember. Read on for Alice’s main party planning tip and a few of her favorite details from the tea party.

A Wild One Birthday at Park Studios

April 26, 2019

We love when parents kick tradition to the curb and plan their children’s birthday parties their way! Brilliant mama Myleik Teele decided to have a fully customized birthday for son Noah. The family wanted everyone to have fun, to get in some quality time with their closest family and friends, as well as for the celebration to be stylish. How amazing is that?! From the knockout balloon installation and balloon bar, to the craft station for kids, to the photo booth, there’s so much to love about this darling day planned by Lemiga Events! Take a closer look below, with behind-the-scenes images by our own Alice Park!

From Michelle Gainey … For this Wild One 1st Birthday Party we created seating areas and decor that were both comfy and visually stimulating for our little and big guests!

From Myleik Teele … When we got to the part where the singing slows down at the end … “Haaaaappy Biiiiiiirthday, dear Noooooaaaaah …,” I felt a flood of emotions.

An effective strategy for business is key in growing and maintaining a successful photography business in today’s market, and many of these strategies carry a hefty price. Luckily, there is a highly effectual association, the National Association of Professional Child Photographers, that makes its amazing body of knowledge highly available and accessible. And the best news? They want all to be successful so they make a point not to put too big of a dent in the wallets of their fellow creatives.

We’re Loving This All-White Baby Shower

January 14, 2019

When it came time to celebrate their baby, this beautiful couple wanted to make it a gender-neutral, all-white event. “Worth the Wait” was the inspired theme, and this modern baby shower was born. The elegant shower featured hints of natural greenery, and comfort food that provided a reason to celebrate all on its own. All that plus a “So Worth the Wait” feature wall, and plenty of natural light pouring in for guests to relish in and enjoy. It was a fabulous way to kick off the year, in the studio!

Jillian Smith, of One Touch Events, designed the event. Our own Alice Park photographed the couple’s maternity session just before the shower.

What a baby shower! See this Swan Lake themed second birthday, next!
