Twins Mason & Cole turn 1 - Devin Lester Photography
It is school holidays and you are probably thinking of ways to entertain the kids and keep them busy. How about going for a family shoot? We have a great selection of family- and kids party photographers featured on our blog. Devin Lester shared his gift with us a few weeks ago and today he has the cutest memories captured under a "Dr. Seuss Things 1 and Thing 2" party theme.
I noticed Devin has also added quite a few new "badges" in his email footers- it seems we are not the only bloggers thinking he has exceptional talent as a photographer:) According to this, he received an "Admired in Africa" photography award under the top 10 New Born- and top 10 Maternity Mom 2016 category. Congratulations, Devin! And thank you for sharing your talent with us.
Kids party theme: Thing 1 and Thing 2
Twin brothers, Mason & Cole celebrated their first birthdays in true Dr. Seuss style as Thing 1 and Thing 2! The theme was beautifully incorporated into the decor, stationary, kids treats and adults hamburger making station! The boys made their entrance dressed as Dr Seuss' Thing 1 and Thing 2 - too cute!
Kids party venue:
This party was shot at family home at Silver Lakes Golf Estate, Pretoria

Pro Tip
Birthdays are a great opportunity to add some value by taking some family portraits for your clients. These days it's not often that everyone is together in the same place at the same time.
