Why to book a cake smash?

Your baby is turning one, another beautiful milestone moment in their life. You want to capture this time with beautiful images. Our cake smash session begins with a baby portrait giving you some beautiful first birthday images. You can bring an outfit for their portraits or they can wear their cake smash outfit for this.

 

Bringing the cake into the set up to let baby in their own time, play and eat the cake. Sometimes this can take a few moments as it’s something new and different to them. But watching them fascinated by it all is lovely, take in every moment and relive those moments of the past 12 months. 

 

Seeing your baby turn into this beautiful little character with their own stamp on things, their own ways and their cheeky laugh. Creating more memories with them and laughing along side them.

 

It’s the perfect way to capture their first birthday and a lovely idea for a morning or afternoon out together. Giving you images to look back on for a life time as they reach this milestone.

Top 10 questions I get asked by prospective clients?

 

1.I don’t know when to book my session as my baby isn’t here yet?

A.That’s absolutely fine, we recommend booking you’ve newborn session in after your 20-week scan due to the availability we have available every month. But of course you can book later than this too. We book you in on a floating date so that if baby arrives early or a little late we can move you’ve session accordingly.

2.Can we have sibling/ parent shots too?

A.Absolutely! I love getting the whole family involved in session and I feel it’s so important to get as many family images as you can when you have the opportunity to do so.

3.What should we bring with us to the session?

A.I will send you a detailed email once you’ve session is booked in depending on the type of session you have gone for will depend on what you’ve required to bring but we will make sure you have all the details within plenty of time.

4.Am I too late to have photographs of my baby, he/she is over 3 weeks old?

A.No of course not, we now offer a baby’s first photo shoot which is ideally for babies 5 weeks+. Because we know how full on it can be within those first few weeks and you forget to book in a newborn session. The baby’s first photo-shoot is more awake shots and baby as they are but they are still absolutely beautiful.

5.How much do you charge?

A.This depends on the session type you can find the information and session cost for each individual session we offer on the pages. All our product pricing in over on the product page.

6.Can we have a mixture of studio and location for our session?

A.If you’ve having a family session they absolutely yes! We do not offer mixed for newborn and baby photograph. However the location will be within Ickwell due to the length of your session.
