Baby’s First Birthday Cake Smash Photoshoot
Celebrate your little one's milestone with us! We turn your baby’s first birthday into a fun and memorable event with our cake smash photo sessions. Capture adorable moments as your baby explores and enjoys their first taste of cake.
Our Birthday Cake Smash Photo Sessions
These sessions are designed to feel like a mini party in the studio! Children do very well during these sessions, especially at one year. We recommend planning the birthday session at least four weeks before the big day, allowing time for image selection and retouching, which typically takes 2 to 3 weeks, depending on the number of images and products ordered.
Session Styling
Each session features a custom balloon garland and/or backdrop tailored to your preferred theme and color scheme. Please book ahead so that we have sufficient time to prepare everything and order the necessary items for your photoshoot. We will consult with you on style and theme and present design options for the photoshoot. If you prefer, we can do a custom balloon garland for a more classic cake smash session.
Due to allergy concerns, the family provides the cake, and we partner with the fantastic Girl Friday for balloon garlands.
We also offer a selection of adorable outfits for your child to wear during the session (except for the cake smash portion). We’re happy to consult on style and wardrobe via email, phone, or text—whatever works best for you. Our studio has a dressing room, private parking, and a comfortable seating area for parents to relax and enjoy the session. Plus, there’s a fantastic coffee shop right across the street!

"Lisa is hands down a miracle worker when it comes to working with newborns and children! She welcomed us into her studio, made us feel so incredibly comfortable and immediately like family. She truly wants to capture your personal style and special moments perfectly! Lisa's quality of work speaks for itself and her product far exceeds expectations. Our newborn and 1 year old sessions were perfect! We shopped and shopped for a new born photographer and she was the perfect fit for our family. Will be using her talent over and over in the future!"

“Lisa was the perfect photographer to choose for newborn photos of our son. As first time parents, she made us feel at ease immediately. We could tell right away she was a mother herself and found ourselves soaking up all the advice we could while watching her take beautiful photos we will cherish for a lifetime. The photos are absolutely gorgeous, and the experience was better than we could have hoped for. We will definitely be going to her for future photos of our family."

"My family had an awesome experience during our one year old photo session with Lisa. She demonstrated patience, professionalism, kindness and the utmost care for us. When my daughter was crying almost through out her photoshoot and my 3 year old was running all over the place, I was ompletely overwhelmed and worried that we may have much time to take more photos. She offered to have us come over the next to complete it and to me, that was impressive and yes all the pictures came out so beautifully. I would 1000 percent recommend her and you will definately have a great experience. Thank you Lisa!!!"
