Smash the Cake sessions to celebrate first birthdays can be a lot of messy fun!!!
Newborn photos are often precious babies curled up into poses sleeping in angelic classical portraits. As baby grows the sessions become more playful— getting baby to smile and laugh for the camera. Celebrating baby’s first birthday with a personal cake has been a tradition for quite a long time now; I’m pretty sure my dad has a photo of me putting my face into my first cake! A wonderful way to freeze time on this is with a styled session with a cake!!
I like to start with simple portraits focusing on just your sweetheart— Before they’re covered head to toe in cake!!!
Then, we give them the cake and watch them explore. Some instantly dig in immediately and never bat an eye, others a little more cautious as they touch the icing, little bits at a time.
Capturing the little details is my favorite part of these sessions. I just love little baby toes covered in icing. I have one of these for each of my children!!!
