Cake Smash Photography

​

A cake smash photo session is the best way to celebrate your little one's first birthday in a fun and memorable way. Imagine your little one diving into their first birthday cake with pure joy – that’s what cake smash photography is all about! From giggles to sticky fingers, I’m all about capturing those messy, adorable moments that capture the essence of your baby’s big day.

​

The whole idea begin a cake smash session is to keep your precious baby entertained while taking photos of them eating (smashing) a cake, and afterwards playing in a beautiful bath designed specifically for one-year-olds. This is done in a playful and colorful scene, created with the use of backdrops, balloons, fairy lights and other cute props. 

​

The best time of day to do a cake smash photo shoot is at a time you know your little one will be happy and playful - usually right after a nap. Mornings work better than afternoons as most babies are happy and well rested in the morning. Another handy tip is to bring a recording of their favourite songs/videos along, and play it during their cake smash session – this helps create familiarity and relaxes them, hopefully getting a smile or two during the session.

​

There are a few tips on how to prepare your little one for the session - one of course letting the play with food, especially cupcakes / muffins to get them used to the texture.
