What to expect from your Houston Cake Smash Session
Don’t miss the opportunity to document your baby’s first-year milestones, before they grow up too fast!

As your Houston cake smash and first-birthday photographer, I’m here to capture simple, timeless photos that celebrate all the little details of your adorable growing baby.
Here’s what to expect from your Houston cake smash photography session.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BABY!
Get ready to celebrate your little one's big milestone in the most delightful way; cake smash sessions are simply irresistible! We’re all about capturing those magical moments that you'll treasure forever. These Houston first-birthday photography sessions are an absolute blast, especially when your little star is between 11 and 14 months old, perfect timing for their spectacular first birthday celebration!
Want to make those party invitations pop with adorable images? Make sure to book your cake smash session about two months ahead of the big day! And the fun doesn’t stop there! Depending on the package you choose, we often follow up the cake smash with an exciting Milk or Bubble Bath; it's the ultimate way to keep the festivities going! Get ready for an unforgettable experience!
SIMPLE, ORGANIC PROPS
We love using clean, simple backdrops and props that let your baby shine! Our style embraces neutral and organic colors and textures, ensuring all focus is on your little one instead of a busy backdrop. In our studio, you'll find the cutest wooden toys, charming little chairs, balloons, and so much more. We’ll happily provide your child’s cake and wardrobe for cake smash sessions, so all you need to bring is your adorable little one!
SAFETY
Some babies can have allergies to gluten, eggs, and dairy, among other things. It's a great idea to let your little one enjoy cake a few times before our cake smash session! This way, you can see if your baby might have any allergies or sensitivities to icing or dairy. We kindly ask that you let us know about any allergies upon booking.
AFTER THE SESSION
Shortly after your session, a sneak peek will be posted on our Facebook or Instagram page. Feel free to tag yourself in the photo and share it with your friends!
Your gallery will be ready within four weeks of our session. Images are delivered via digital download through a password-protected online gallery. This beautifully laid-out gallery allows you to view, download, and share your photos with loved ones. You can also order prints straight from the gallery if you’d like.
