CAKE SMASH
PHOTOGRAPHY
Celebrating your baby's first birthday with tailored cake smash photos is an unparalleled experience. These photo sessions offer a cherished memento of your baby's inaugural cake tasting, filled with joy and laughter. It's a momentous occasion to immortalize the sweetness and brevity of this milestone - the first birthday stands alone in its significance. We tailor each session with vibrant backdrops, bespoke banners, and unique decorations to create a perfect setting that reflects your baby's personality.
A "cake smash" refers to a beloved trend in portrait photography that captures babies interacting with their birthday cake. These photo shoots are often designed with whimsical and celebratory themes and are usually planned around the time of their first birthday. It's a delightful method to mark this significant milestone! The term "cake smash" comes from the encouraged behavior of babies to playfully destroy their cake. While some babies dive right in, creating a delightful mess, others might need a gentle nudge to start the fun. Regardless of their approach, we ensure to capture every precious moment in adorable photographs!
Your cake smash photo session comes with various setups to capture a range of moments. Initially, we'll start with a session aimed at capturing timeless, clean portraits of your baby, reminiscent of a first-year milestone session. We opt for a simple, neutral backdrop and minimal props for a classic look. This initial setup also offers a wonderful opportunity to include family portraits, making it an ideal time for an updated family photo with your little one. Following this, we transition to the vibrant and lively cake smash setup. This part of the session is more colorful and festive, featuring a themed backdrop and an adorable cake stand to enhance the celebratory mood. If you have a more intricate theme in mind, you're encouraged to bring extra decorations or opt for a custom design from us. Due to dietary considerations, we ask that you bring the cake and the outfit for the smash, which is bound to get frosted in the fun. Rest assured, we'll guide you through selecting the perfect cake and offer theme suggestions during our pre-session consultation to ensure everything is just right.
Smash your cake and celebrate big in this session where you will only worry about having fun!
Your Jacksonville Maternity
& Newborn Photographer
We want you to have the best memories of how you have lived these 9 months. This stage in which, between nerves, enthusiasm and love, you spend time thinking about the moment when you will hug your baby for the first time. We recommend that your pregnant photos be taken between weeks 32 and 35, but there is no problem in taking your maternity photos between weeks 97 and 38, only that you run the risk that it can be advanced.
We have three options for your session. Outdoor Maternity Photography, Studio Maternity Photography and Milk Bath Maternity Photography.
FAQ
The sooner the better! It is important not to wait to book at the last minute. I perform a certain number of newborn sessions per week and in no case two per day, we will take into account the approximate date of delivery, even so, according to my experience, babies usually do not arrive when predicted. For this reason I recommend booking at the latest at the beginning of the third trimester of pregnancy. So I can guarantee the approximate date.
I prefer these types of sessions to take place in my studio, where I have everything I need. The parents will be calm, and you will have privacy to be with your little one.
As such, no, but you will have a discount of $ 25 if you book your pregnancy and newborn session at the same time.
Yes, I have hats, baskets, blankets, fabrics and other accessories. 99% of the accessories that you see in the photographs, you have at your disposal for the session of your little one.
From the basic pack, yes. We always make a space for you to take that photo with your baby when he was barely a week old, and with older siblings … the same. Just let me know before hiring and on the day of the session I will give you the options that best suit you with the type of photography I take.
