Pregnancy cravings are real, but a mom’s idea to turn her love of Chick-fil-A into her daughter’s first birthday photo shoot is brilliant.

Kate Byrne, who lives with her husband and two daughters in the Fort Story military base in Virginia Beach, decided there was no better way to celebrate her youngest daughter Brinley’s first birthday than with a photo shoot inspired by the fast food restaurant they love most.

“We love love love Chick-fil-A! When I was pregnant, it was my biggest pregnancy craving. I would go at least four times a week to the Chick-fil-A at Hilltop in Virginia Beach," Byrne, 25, told "Good Morning America." "They knew my order, my name, my everything.”

The whole family loves the chicken-based fast food chain -- even Brinley munches on a four-count nugget meal now that she can have table food.

The adorable fast food photoshoot came to life in June thanks to Byrne's creative idea and Chavarria-Garcia Photography.

Adorned with a red tutu, a cow headband, and a shirt reading “My Mommy Loves Me More Than Chick-fil-A (And That’s A Lot),” Brinley smiled for the camera and got to nibble on a few of those enormous waffle fries.

“Brinley ate the whole Chick-fil-A meal," Byrne told "GMA." "We didn’t have to pose her at all. We put the food in front of her and she did the rest!"
