Canon EOS 5D Mk III – 24-70mm f3.5 – ISO 1250 – A photographer dream, Olivier always very photogenic is posing and showing off his tan during his birthday party. He wants to stand up all the time now, or maybe he just found the floor of the pub not suitable for crawling …
Olivier just turned one. As Chiara rightly said, we had “another” birthday for him on Sunday – but this time with friends. We rented the private bar at the Crabtree in Fulham and spend the afternoon there with mostly Mum and Dad friends, but also Chiara’s. Olivier was happy eating cake and playing with balloons.
He has grown so fast in the past few months. With his new haircut, he looks more and more like a little boy. Not much talking yet, but he is always on the move to compensate !
Sony RX100 – 60mm/28mm f2.0 – ISO 1000/125 – The crew is preparing the venue for the guests. Chiara is balloon-holder, while mum is choosing the wine.
Canon EOS 5D Mk III – 24-70mm f3.5 – ISO 800 – Special order from Sabrina, a very British, home-made chocolate train carved and prepared with love by Chiara and JP. Chiara was absolutely thrilled and stayed in the kitchen for the whole time – also making sure she could taste every single ingredient or decoration item during preparation.
Canon EOS 5D Mk III – 24-70mm f2.8 – ISO 320 – Olivier, not very impressed by the setup, is contemplating the balloons.
Canon EOS 5D Mk III – 24-70mm f5.6 – ISO 2500 +1,5e/v – Sparkles always a hit with kids. The picture was over-exposed to see kids face, next time we will remove the balloons (helium balloons not so great for portraits).
Canon EOS 5D Mk III – 24-70mm f2.8 – ISO 1000 – Presents opening, it’s getting late. All the dads had a few beers and cheese, sugar level is dropping for kids – time to go home.
