Cake Smash Photography Sessions
'Have your cake and eat it too'
Why choose to do a Cake Smash Session?
You only turn 1 once! A cake smash session not only provides great amusement, but great memories as well! The gorgeous expressions captured are guaranteed to put a smile on your face whenever you see them. The way that your baby approaches the cake is unique and will provide happy memories for you to look back on. Get in touch today to book a messy, fun, laughter-filled experience.
When Should I book?
You can book a session at any point in your baby's first year, or alongside any other sessions you book with me, to make sure that you document everything.
How do I book?
Email, call or fill out the contact form on my website to book. A £99 non-refundable session fee is due to book your session and we will schedule a pre-consultation for me to tailor a bespoke session for you with your preferences.
Aesthetic
Where do you want to put the images? How do you want them to be displayed? Do you want a theme? Ask yourself these questions when deciding colour choices/looks you wish to opt for. A lot of my clients go for neutral tones with a touch of pink or blue, but it is up to you how you'd like the images styled. I have a selection of backdrops for you to choose from, and I can order in a specific backdrop with enough notice. I've named each current theme and will be adding blog posts so that you can browse individual sessions to help you choose. Get in touch and let's discuss your baby's first birthday theme.
Cake Smash Themes
The Session
An average session is 1-2 hours long, which can include the splash element (baby in the tub with bubble bath- please alert me to any allergies). I provide the backdrop, the decorations, and the cake. If your baby has allergies, please let me know, so that I can insure that the ingredients in the cake are right for your baby.
​
The normal running of a cake smash session is a portrait session for bubba (most parents like to provide the outfit for this part). This is followed by the cake smash itself and finished off with a splash session. In a splash session, we put baby in a tub and capture those cute happy, bath-loving smiles!
What to bring
Baby's favourite toy or anything that will make baby laugh/smile! Any outfits you'd like baby to wear; the outfit baby will wear for their portraits in the first part of the cake smash. I normally provide the cake smash outfit itself, but if you'd like to bring your own, you are welcome to do so!
