Turning one year old is such a big milestone, and what better way to celebrate than with a fun and memorable cake smash photography session? This almost one-year-old’s family chose the sweetest theme for her portraits: Berry First Birthday!

We started the session with family portraits in front of a neutral backdrop. Beginning with these timeless images allows families to capture classic first birthday photos before the cake comes out. It’s the perfect mix of milestone portraits and family photography, creating a gallery that feels complete.

After family photos, it was time for the highlight of the day: the cake smash session. The in-studio setup featured pops of pink, strawberry accents, baskets of berries, florals, and a glowing “1” to mark the occasion. Dressed in a strawberry-themed outfit, this little one had the best time exploring her cake, tasting the frosting, and showing off her personality. These candid and joyful moments are what make cake smash photography such a favourite for families.

To finish the session, we moved into the splash photos, a bubble bath setup in front of a neutral backdrop. Babies love this part, and it’s always such a joyful way to end a cake smash and splash session. Not only does it create adorable images full of giggles and splashes, but it also helps clean up from all the frosting fun!
