When you are *this* sweet, what better way to celebrate your first birthday than an Ice Cream Cake Smash Session?!? I was so excited to see this sweet girl again and she was every bit as sweet as her set-up! She was so full of personality and spunk – my favorite type of one year […]

Sometimes cake smash sessions are very specifically themed. And others all we need is a color scheme to create a special celebration photo shoot for a newly one year old! This little guy’s mom had the balloon filled number one she wanted to incorporate into the set, so I took my inspiration from those colors […]

Not every cake smash session theme has to be super specific or personal. Sometimes when you have a fall birthday, the best theme is a seasonal one! I love everything about fall, so I was super excited to design this set for this sweet little guy. I filled his set with pumpkins and fall leaves […]

I cake believe it’s already time for a cake smash for this little lady. I met this sweet girl and her family a whole year ago for her newborn session, and she was adorable then. Just look at that sweet little face: Fast forward an entire year, and she is standing up and laughing and […]

I first met this sweet boy when he was only days old. He was so sweet and squishy and adorable. Fast forward 11 months and this cutie is full of toddler boy energy! I was thrilled when his mom contacted me and asked to do a lumberjack cake smash session, and what a fun session […]

Who said themed sessions were just for the one year old crowd? Miss E is turning 2 and her mom settled on a “TWO Groovy” themed set-up for her yearly photos! I was super excited to plan this one. A fun hippie theme is right up my alley! In typical two year old fashion, Miss […]

When this guy’s mom contacted me and asked to do a Winnie the Pooh cake smash, I was so excited. Somehow in all these years of doing cake smashes, I have never had a Winne the Pooh theme! Can you believe it? This sweet guy and I took turns being sick and needing to reschedule […]

When a baby finishes their first trip around the sun, there are lots of things to celebrate! First smiles, first laughs, first tooth, maybe even their first steps! So what better theme for a cake smash than a space theme to celebrate completing a whole celestial revolution! I’ve always been a bit of a science […]
