Photograph Description
This is that split-second glance babies give their parents—the are-you-sure-I-can-do-this? look, as if they’re checking for permission before diving into chaos. In this portrait, cake-smeared hands and frosting-crowned cheeks tell the story of a first birthday that’s equal parts sweet and mischievous. To me, this photograph is about the pure, uninhibited joy of being a little rebel at the very start of life’s messy adventure.
