Meet Kate! She lives in Hawaii but made it all the way up to Maine for a vacation. Maine is just that awesome. I’ve known Kate’s mom since the two of us were in seventh grade. We navigated the rough terrain of junior high together. In ninth grade, we had a semi-secret language and a favorite Albert Einstein quote. For her 16th birthday, we conquered the Belly Buster. We went to the movies together. We went to concerts together. Flash forward to now and she’s got Kate, a perfect little one year old! I traveled up to Maine to photograph this little princess at one year old in one of the family’s favorite places!
She loved sniffing all the flowers!
Concentrating. 
I loved watching her expression as the waves would wash up and get her wet. 
Gorgeous lashes and a pretty pout.
Mom & dad might be in trouble with this little one…
Happy birthday, Kate! I hope every year is as magical as the first!
