First Birthday Photography

1st birthday sessions are an enjoyable way to record this special occasion. The cake smash photoshoot is great messy fun for everyone. I aim to complete 3 to 4 set ups such as: the cake smash; the O.N.E. letters; splash & bubbles; and traditional, studio portraits. I provide all the outfits so that you don’t have to worry about sourcing a special costume. Plus I include a gorgeous, yummy cake. Parents and siblings are always welcome to be included in the cake smash photoshoot (and they don’t have to get covered in cake). Before the big day I will send you a session plan to fill in to help us tailor the shoot according to your requests. You can find more examples of first birthday photoshoots on our Facebook page or our Instagram feed.

We are also happy to do 1st birthday photoshoots without the cake smash for those who would rather not. See below for further details.

If you are planning a celebration for a 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 16th, 18th, 21st, 50th, 60th, 70th, 80th….. birthday then please take a look at our other ages birthday page.
