Birthdays are for celebrating! Turning 1 is a pretty big milestone, and a professional portrait session is a great way to ensure that those memories are preserved for years to come.
This little guy came for a session for his first birthday session and cake smash, and I would say he had a blast.
Happy birthday Layden.
His cake smash theme was “you are my sunshine”, and I always include 2-3 setups of 12 month portraits before the cake, so when mom suggested this sunny theme I knew just the background to use. He’s so cheerful that we kept it simple and let him be the star of the set.
Then it was time for the cake!
Baby Layden does have some food sensitivities, so mom had his cake specially made and I think it turned out beautifully.
He wasn’t so sure at first. This can be normal when we put a cake in front of a baby, sitting on the ground, in an unfamiliar surrounding. My general rule is that as long as baby isn’t upset/crying, we let them go at their own pace and just enjoy watching!
It didn’t take him long to investigate his cake.
And it tasted pretty yummy too.
It wasn’t long before he was smashing into his cake, and checking to make sure nobody was taking it away from him, lol!
Mmmmmmmm
Good to eat, fun to squish.
I love getting detail shots during cake smashes.
What a happy baby!
Babies will let you know when they are done. When they do, it’s time for a bath.
That is included with my cake smash sessions too!
Splish splash- time to get clean with bubbles and a rubber ducky.
If your little one is approaching their first birthday, scheduling a birthday and cake smash session is a great way to ensure you have those memories to look back on for years to come.
