A first birthday.
A family milestone. Beautifully remembered
NORTHERN NEW JERSEY CAKE SMASH PHOTOGRAPHER
Your baby is almost ONE, what an exciting milestone! This session is one of the most joyful experiences I offer. By the end, we’ll all be a little bit covered in frosting and smiles, creating the sweetest memories of your little one’s very first celebration.
Not into the traditional cake mess? No worries at all! We can create beautifully timeless first-year portraits. Perfect for capturing your little one just as they are!
Cake Smash or First year Portraits
studio
- We’ll begin with family portraits—something I highly recommend, as it’s a wonderful opportunity to update your family photos. If you prefer to skip this portion, that’s absolutely fine; we can move straight into your baby’s solo portraits!
- Decor and theme can be customized. A balloon garland along with simple, minimalistic decorations are included.
- Please note: the cake is not included. This allows you to have full control over what meets your baby’s dietary needs, allergy considerations and personal preference.
My style is minimalistic and timeless, ensuring the focus stays on your baby and the pure joy of this moment!

Kind Words
She does not rush and takes time to style/give tips on posing. Quick turnaround time for photos as well. Would definitely recommend! We are planning to book her for all of our family photos now!
from my past clients
The best time to book your baby’s cake smash session/first year portraits is about one month before their birthday. This helps ensure availability and allows plenty of time for you to receive your edited images before the big day.
