🎂 Thinking about a Cake Smash Session for your baby’s first birthday?
Here is something many parents don’t know…
Every baby reacts differently to cake!
Some babies dive right in and make a glorious mess.
Some carefully inspect every crumb.
Some prefer fruit, snacks, or even a watermelon instead.
And some just want to smile, play, and explore.
The secret to a successful Cake Smash Session isn’t forcing the cake—it’s letting your little one lead the way.
With over 16 years of experience working with babies and young children, I know how to create a relaxed, baby-led environment that allows genuine smiles, curiosity, and personality to shine through.
I am currently booking:
• Milestone Sessions
• First Birthday Portraits
• Cake Smash Sessions
Whether your baby loves cake, watermelon, or simply playing with decorations, we’ll capture beautiful memories of this special stage.
Planning your little one’s first birthday photos? Need gift certificate?
