Let?s taco 'bout the best themed photo session I?ve ever seen.
Some parents do a cake smash for baby?s first birthday, allowing the child to grab cake by the fistful while a photographer captures every delightfully messy moment. But baby Delta?s mother wanted something a little different, and she requested a taco smash.
Specifically, a Taco Bell smash.

The mother, Monica Phillips of St. Paul, Missouri, told KSDK-TV that her daughter loves savory foods more than sweets.
?It was the easiest photo shoot ever because Delta just sat there eating tacos and enjoying life while the photographer worked her magic,? she said.
Check out this taco belle.

She's got great taste.

Seriously, this is what I want for my next birthday.
Photographer Julia Aiello, owner of Julia Marie Photography in Wentzville, Missouri, said this was her first time staging a shoot for a food other than cake, and she was nervous.
?Most babies either dig into their food or hate the texture and want nothing to do with it,? she said. ?I had mom (Monica) set the tray of tacos down in front of Delta, and she dug in and went to town ? which I was not expecting at all!?

Since Aiello posted the album, the photos have reached more than 2.5 million people on Facebook alone and have been featured in multiple media outlets.
?I?m still so shocked and completely speechless to the response it has gotten,? she said.

Perhaps this will open the door to a pizza smash" Aiello said...
