Lileigh's 1st Birthday

The best thing about making videos  for kids is seeing the faces on not only the kids, but watching the parents have an emotionally intimate moment while they watch the video that you created.  I was so excited to see Lileigh's parents watch the video for the first time. 

It is Lileigh's first birthday, and I just met her for the first time at her birthday party last weekend. She is one of the most precious, photogenic babies I have ever seen and absolutely adorable in person as well! I had so much fun making her video.  

Her mother chose the perfect song, "I've Always Loved You," By Third Day, which shares the love that a parent has for their children before they were born. It was a more upbeat song so the pictures were cut at a faster pace with slight movement and transitions to smooth the whole video together. It doesn't happen a lot, but I found myself starting to choke up while editing the pictures together.  The video is 4 1/2 minutes of pictures from when Lileigh's mother was pregnant to her birth and through her first year of life.  I had such a wonderful time with this one and was so happy I got to experience Lileigh's parents watching the video for the first time, along with all of their friends and family.

  1. Very true. Videos do hold those special moments and emotions. I do also wanted to make my son's birthday special. So I am collecting some ideas to make the occasion different.
