A baby milestone or cake smash photography session is a fun and memorable way to capture your baby's milestones and personality. These sessions typically take place when your baby is between 6-12 months old, and often include a special outfit, props, and of course, a smash cake! It's a wonderful way to create lasting memories of your baby's first year.

We recommend scheduling your baby milestone or cake smash session when your baby is between 6-12 months old. This is the perfect time to capture their unique personality and adorable milestones, like sitting up or crawling.

Most client book their baby's first birthday portraits for when their baby is between 11 - 13 months old. If you would like to have your baby's cake smash/first birthday images on display at their first birthday party, we suggest booking earlier.

We recommend dressing your baby in comfortable, stylish outfits that reflect their personality and style. For cake smash sessions, we typically provide a special outfit or a diaper cover that is perfect for getting messy.

Absolutely! We encourage our clients to bring any props or decorations that they'd like to incorporate into the session. Whether it's a favorite toy, a special blanket, or a custom backdrop, we'll work with you to create a session that reflects your unique vision.

That's okay! Not all babies love cake, and we're prepared for that. We'll work with you to create a fun and relaxed environment for your baby, and we'll capture their adorable expressions and milestones whether they're smashing cake or not.

Our baby milestone and cake smash sessions typically last around 1-2 hours. This gives us plenty of time to capture all of your baby's adorable expressions and milestones, while also allowing for breaks and clean-up time if needed.

At booking, we require a session fee to reserve the date which covers the session in our studio in Lemoore, CA, the use of backdrops, props & outfits and the artistic editing of images. Additional fees may apply depending on the complexity of your desired cake smash setup. At the ordering appointment 1-2 weeks after the session, you get to see your portraits for the first time, choose your favorite ones and purchase a package based on that. As a luxury photography studio, our packages include high-end, museum-grade products, like albums, canvases, and acrylic canvases, as well as digital images. For specific pricing please give us a call or submit the form above.

After your baby's milestone or cake smash session, I'll spend 1-2 weeks editing and retouching the images to ensure they look their best. Once the editing is complete, we'll schedule an in-person ordering appointment (also known as a "session premiere") where you'll see all of your images for the first time. During this appointment, we'll go through each image together and select your favorites, and I'll help you choose the best way to display your artwork, whether it's in a beautiful album or as a framed print for your home. This is a fun and collaborative process, and it ensures that you end up with high-quality prints and products that you'll love for years to come.

We understand that there are a lot of expenses that come with having a new baby, so we offer interest-free in-house payment plans for up to 6 months, or payments with AfterPay.
