Are you looking for Korean Doljanchi Photography Greenville SC for your baby’s first birthday? Click here to inquire about booking your session. Or keep reading below to learn more about sweet Rhea and her session with Quiet Graces Photography. A Korean Doljanchi is a celebration of reaching the one year milestone. In many villages in Korean, many babies didn’t make it to one year so a whole village would come out to the Doljanchi celebration. Since these photos were taken during the Covid-19 Pandemic, Kim and Tom were unable to travel to do Rhea’s Doljanchi with friends and family. These photos served to bring their family together across the distance.

The highlight of a doljangi is a doljabi.  This ceremony involves placing a table filled with objects indicating different career paths on it and encouraging Rhea to select objects. Her selection will fortell her future profession.  Among the objects on the table were a microphone for entertainer, aviation headset (Tom is an air traffic controller!), $100 bill, calligraphy pens, and weaving supplies.

Rhea chose a golf ball first and then a gavel. Looks like a sports playing lawyer may be in her future! You can see video clips of her playing with the gavel in the video below.

In addition to her doljangi, we also did a little cake smash! This cake from Christine at Baking Sweet Scents was thoroughly enjoyed. Rhea also thoroughly destroyed the cake while enjoying all the berries. Rhea especially loved the bubble bath and delighted in sending water all over the studio making the cake clean up a simple mop job 😉 A cake and bubble bath are included in all one year sessions with Quiet Graces Photography.

Finally, we also did family pictures during Rhea’s Korean Doljanchi Photography Greenville SC. I loved capturing their family joy so much!
