Sadie turns 1!! : Cincinnati Family Photographer
Written byy: Kortnee on June 8, 2010
Steve and Reagan are the proud parents of two of the cutest little girls you have ever seen! Sadie, their youngest, just turned one. I was so excited to be able to shoot her one year old photos as just a couple of years ago I was shooting her oldest sisters one year old photos! Sadie has amazed me since day one. From the first day I met her in the hospital she has been the most compliant, good natured little girl! Our Micah was such a handful when he was a little one that to see her be happy and chill all the time is just amazing! hahaha!
Steve and Reagan have been such great friends to us! They have been over to make “Ted heads” when Ted turned 30….they came prop bowling for my birthday and gladly wore the ridiculous t-shirts I hand made for them…they have made super fabulous videos for our business and family, one being out in the freezing cold at Christmas time! I mean really, that is some friend dedication! Thanks guys!
Steve is the owner of Studio Z Films…. and he is the best. Really. Hands down he rocks the house! Click here to visit his blog and see the sweet little film he put together for Sadie’s first birthday!
Ok, on to the photos!! Meet Sadie. Look at this face! I just want to squeeze those cheeks!!
Meet Mya, Sadie’s adorable older sister.
Mya has had a yellow washrag that she has been attached to forever! She was very interested in showing it off!
Meet Steve, the proud papa.
And last but not least, the mama that glues the whole group together, Reagan! Together they make one adorable family!!!
“Hey Mya! How old is Sadie??”
I just looooove this photo. How precious!!!
So, Steve and Reagan have a tradition that on their girls first birthdays they purchase a large cake and dunk them in it.!! We did it with Mya and it was a ball! Now, Sadie, the fact that you have creative parents may be a blessing and a curse!
Oh yeah baby, feel the sugar rush!
Sugar and spice between the toes!
She went from loving it, to loathing it in about 3 minutes!
I thought it so appropriate that in the middle of Sadie freaking out about being in the cake, Mya walks over…not to comfort her sister, but to steal a lick of the frosting! Perfect sister move! hahahaha!! What makes it really funny is that Mya is actually a super sweet older sister! She just had her eyes on the prize!!!
And then after stealing the lick, she pats her on the head with more frosting! Can’t you hear it now…. Mya is 16 and Sadie is 13. They are sitting in the living room looking through old photos when Sadie says, “See, look at this one! You have been a stinker to me since day one!” That is totally how it would have went between me and my sisters!
Thank you guys for having me there to photograph so many huge milestones with your family! It has been a pleasure!!
Ok, time for number three guys! What? If you don’t there will be no more baby cake sessions?!?!?!
Remember, we love your comments!!!















I’m almost speechless, but I’ll give it a shot. We honestly cannot thank you enough for being such an amazing friend and creating/capturing these amazing cake-filled moments with us. You are loved!

I was going through the photos with Steve saying wow look at this one and this one and this one. I asked how did she catch the moment with Mya and her blankee, Sadie in the cake having a meltdown and the precious ones of the girls together. They seriously brought tears to my eyes because these are the moments that we will treasure forever. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
