The First Birthday is more than just a date on the Calendar!
Your baby only turns one once — and that first birthday is more than just a date on the calendar. It marks a whole year of firsts. First smiles, first steps, first words, and yes... the first taste of cake.

What is a Cake Smash Session?
A cake smash session is a fun, light-hearted way to celebrate that huge milestone — and investing in it means capturing this fleeting moment forever, in the most artistic and professional ways.
Let’s be honest: babies change fast. What they look like at one year old — their expressions, their little habits, the way they scrunch up their nose or clap their hands — it all shifts before you even realize it. A professional cake smash session freezes those details in time, with images that go far beyond the blurry phone photos we all collect on the go.
Professional photography handled and post processed in the right ways, allows you to blow up images and turn into magnificent eye catching posters that will look very beautiful without the pixelation provided by our every day modern devices. A Professional Photographer can provide you with heart touching images that won't present enlarged pixels problems. This, itself, is a big thing to think about!
Cake Smash Studio Experience
It's not just about the pictures — it’s the experience, too. A cake smash session is designed to be fun and low-pressure on baby and parents. Your baby gets to play with textures, explore what's new and look at the environment around, (literally) dig into something new, and you get to be present in the moment without having to stress about capturing it yourself.
Having a trained specialized professional guiding the session, you can expect not only adorable photos but also beautifully lit, well-composed images that are worthy of being printed, shared, and cherished for years to come.
The Cake Smash Experience is tailored in accordance with parents and there is no mess clean-up to worry about! It's all included in our booking. You will go home with a spa fresh baby and wait for the next steps in preparation of your final turnaround. The results are full of meaningful images that will speak to your hearts during an entire lifetime and be passed throughout your generations. How sweet is that? A gift, that will bring innumerous smiles, to your present and future generations.

What to do after a Cake Smash Session?
These sessions also make wonderful keepsakes — whether you’re designing a first birthday invitation, creating a photo album, or just wanting something truly unique to look back on when they’re older (or even for their graduation slideshow one day!).
You can use printed photos of your Smash Session to decorate your home or venue during the first birthday party, have them gifted to family and close friends or framed on tabletops. Mugs, magnets for your refrigerator, acrylic blocks that will make the most adorable impression on your office work desk and other infinite possibilities that I would love to help you with. In the end, it is all about those visual memories that you want to keep alive in the most beautiful and meaningful artistic ways that time won't grant you with another chance to replicate this time and phase.
Honor you child with an amazing and joyful celebration
In the end, investing in a cake smash session isn’t just about the cake. It’s about honoring your child’s first big milestone in a creative, joyful, and lasting way.
Mom and Dad had a year full of new excitements, many nights with tight shifts, tighter schedule to watch and care for your baby and so many other details that will get lost in time... Now, this is a time of celebrating the victory of a first year of life! It is a happy time to be grateful for.

They Only Turn ONE Once! ✨🎂📸
A cake smash session isn’t just about messy faces and cute photos (though you’ll definitely want to get those 😉). It’s about freezing a very sweet and tender moment in time — the giggles, the curiosity, the wild little personality your baby is growing into, and sometimes the drama of the moment.
Whether your little one dives right in or gently pokes at the frosting, these sessions are full of joy, fun, and memories you’ll cherish forever. 💕
