First Birthday Cake Smash Photo Sessions<\/h1>\n

\"Baby's<\/h2>\n

First Birthday Cake Smash Photo Sessions are always so much fun!\u00a0\u00a0 The best part of them is how custom they can be.\u00a0 When the mom called me to do this session she was SO excited about the Mickey Mouse cake she was having design by Cakes For Occasions<\/a> in Danvers MA.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 They are one of our favorite cake vendors and we see them all the time at weddings and special occasions.<\/p>\n

To make the cake even more special it was pink!\u00a0 She said she wanted to do a pink and pearls session and was hoping for gold and pink backdrop.\u00a0 Funny enough I had one from a similar session a few months back.\u00a0 I was able to add props to this sessions that made it hers.<\/p>\n

Smashing Cakes and Turning One!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Babies first birthday is such a milestone.\u00a0 To look back and remember just 365 days before you had this little baby that really didn’t do much, and then 365 days, they grew into this walking babbling person with a personality.\u00a0 I always say that how a baby dives into a cake is indicative of their personality, and this little lady approached with caution and wasn’t so sure that this was for her until the frosting!<\/p>\n

Below are some of my favorite photos from the cake smash with Baby A.\u00a0 They drove all the way from the Cape to have a cake smash with me.\u00a0 That’s a true fan of my work and I am so honored!<\/p>\n

First Birthday Cake smash Portrait Session<\/h2>\n

\"First<\/h2>\n

We started off with just a few quick portraits of her to make sure we captured her all neat and clean.\u00a0 She had on the most adorable outfit!\u00a0 I love this one below of her standing so innocently with the white onsie on and the pink tutu!<\/p>\n

\"Baby's
\nWe were all so surprised that she let us put the crown on her!<\/h2>\n

\"Baby's<\/h2>\n

\"Baby's
\nThen we brought out the cake..<\/h2>\n

\u00a0 \"Baby's<\/h2>\n

And she wasn’t really sure what to do…\"First<\/h2>\n

But then… she got the hang of it.\"First<\/h2>\n

and she looked a little guilty after a few bites.\u00a0 Her expression during the Cake smash seems to say “is this okay?” \"First<\/h2>\n

No really, can I really smash this cake??\"First<\/h2>\n

\"Babies'First Birthday Photo Session Cake Smash Tips<\/h2>\n

 <\/p>\n

Do not set expectations!<\/strong>\u00a0 Most people expect that baby to dive in- head first.\u00a0 To be honest, most babies don’t.\u00a0 After eating a bunch of mush for the previous 6 months, sugar is new.\u00a0 It’s sticky, and packs a heck of a lot of flavor.<\/p>\n

Expect a Mess!<\/strong>
\nEven the sweetest easy going cake smashes some how always end with frosting between toes and in the hair.\u00a0 Not to worry, we have paper towels, wipes and if needed a tub!<\/p>\n

Don’t let them eat TOO much.\u00a0<\/strong>
\nIf the little one is digging in, and digging in, after a few frames, once you’ve got it, you’ve got it.\u00a0 You do NOT want to let the little ones sit there and have a meal with this cake. They will get so sick later (lesson learned here!) and all that sugar is really not good for their bellies!<\/p>\n
