A Sweet First Birthday Cake Smash

Sweet, simple, and memorable.

One of the most joyful moments in a family’s life is the celebration of their baby’s first birthday! It’s a milestone that brings both excitement and nostalgia, marking the end of one year of firsts and the beginning of so many more adventures to come. What better way to celebrate this special day than with a fun and messy cake smash session?

I had the absolute pleasure of working with this adorable little one for their first birthday cake smash session, and I can’t wait to share the highlights! From the tiny hands covered in frosting to the priceless expressions of pure joy, every moment was filled with cuteness. It’s not every day that you get to see a baby experience cake for the first time, and the excitement is always contagious. 🍰✨

Why A Cake Smash?

A cake smash is a fantastic way to capture the joy and personality of your little one on their first birthday. These sessions are all about fun, laughter, and a whole lot of frosting! Whether your baby loves the cake or is a little hesitant at first, the session is all about creating memories that you’ll cherish forever.

Plus, cake smash photos make the perfect addition to your baby’s first-year album and can be used for invites, thank-you cards, and keepsakes. It’s an adorable way to look back at how much your little one has grown!

The Experience

Every cake smash session I do is designed to be stress-free and filled with joy. For this particular session, we went with a sweet and playful setup that matched the baby’s fun-loving personality. I always work with parents to make sure the backdrop, props, and colors reflect the style they’re envisioning for their child’s special moment. You bring the cake, you call the shots.

During the shoot, I encourage families to relax, enjoy the moment, and let their little one have as much fun as they can—after all, it's all about capturing those genuine, joyful expressions! We even get a few adorable "before" shots when the baby is clean and ready to dive into the cake, followed by the inevitable frosting-covered cuteness that follows.
