Smash, Giggle, Repeat: Celebrating First Birthdays with a Cake Smash Session!

There’s something truly magical about celebrating a baby’s very first trip around the sun. And what better way to mark the occasion than with a cake smash session? These sessions are the perfect blend of celebration, chaos, sweetness (literally!), and unforgettable memories.

This week, I had the absolute joy of capturing one of my favorite types of sessions – a first birthday cake smash! From the moment this sweet little one arrived, there was a sparkle of curiosity in their eyes (and just a little mischief too!).

Hesitant pokes turned into full-on handfuls of frosting, a few puzzled looks, then giggles, smears, and a whole lot of adorable mess. It’s always amazing to see each baby’s unique reaction – some dive right in, while others take their sweet time. But one thing’s for sure: every cake smash tells its own delightful story.

Beyond the cake, what I love most about these sessions is how they celebrate a whole year of growth. From those first tiny cries to their first steps, it’s been a journey worth celebrating. And these photos freeze those memories in time – messy, joyful, and beautifully real.

If your little one is about to turn ONE, now is the time to start planning your cake smash session! I offer custom themes, beautiful setups, and plenty of patience (because we all know babies run the show).

Because let’s face it – you only turn ONE once… and it deserves to be celebrated with cake and a whole lot of fun.
