WHAT DOES CAKESMASH INVOLVE
PORTRAITS
To start off your fun filled cake smash session, I will take some beautiful portraits of your birthday baby in a neutral backdrop and then onto the cakesmash backdrop to mark such a special occasion.
CAKESMASH
Then onto the cake smash! This is where I'll let your baby get their hands dirty. They can explore the cake, play with it, smash it, throw it, and even eat some of it too. Some babies don't like to get their hands dirty, don't worry, I have a wooden spoon to encourage them. At first some babies are not too sure what to do or if they should destroy the beautiful cake, this is where myself and parents encourage them that's its ok and fun to get messy. I will get some lovely photographs of baby having lots of fun.
SPLASH
They will finish the session nice and clean with a nice warm splash in the bath. Most kids love this part, its sooo much fun, I encourage them to splash in the bubbly water, prepare for loads of giggles and laughter, haha. I will also get some adorable photographs in the process!

FAQ
WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO BOOK A CAKESMASH
Ideally within 4-6 weeks before baby's birthday if you want photos before the actual Birthday but if photos are not needed before actual birthday, anytime is fine provided we are not fully booked out, Baby is 1 till they are 2.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT ON THE DAY OF MY SESSION
I start with the Birthday portraits with your little one dressed in either their nice smart clothing or one from my birthday wardrobe.
After the portrait is done, baby is dressed in one of my cake smash outfits, I will get some photos of the baby and cake before they start having fun with the cake.
Once we've had all the fun with the cake, then it's Splash time in a warn bubbly bath.
WHAT DO I NEED TO DO IF MY BABY HAVE NOT HAD CAKE BEFORE
It is important to let your baby taste and play with cake particularly buttercream cake prior to our session preferably couple of times, this will help them remember the taste and help get into the spirit of smash!!
WHAT IF I HAVE A SPECIFIC IDEA/THEME THAT IS NOT ONE OF THE PRE-DESIGNED BACKDROP
With our gold package you get to pick whatever theme you want and I promise, you will be amazed.
WHAT IF I WANT EXTRA DIGITAL IMAGES
High resolution edited images are £35 per image or £100 for 4 images.
