There’s something extra special about “firsts” — and this one meant so much to me.
Ava’s cake smash session was the very first one in my new studio, and I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect way to start this new chapter. Getting to celebrate such a big milestone for such a sweet family made it even more meaningful.
What made this session even more special was seeing a familiar face — Ava’s big sister, Audrey! I had the honor of photographing Audrey’s cake smash when she turned one, so having her join in for Ava’s session truly brought everything full circle. Moments like these are the reason I love what I do.
Watching families grow, capturing these milestones, and being invited back year after year is something I never take for granted. Seeing Audrey step into her role as big sister while celebrating Ava’s big first birthday was just the sweetest reminder of how quickly time flies.
Ava absolutely loved her splash bath, and her smiles and giggles filled the studio — officially making it the perfect first cake smash session in this new space.
One of the best things about cake smash sessions at my studio is how simple and stress-free it is for parents. All you need to do is bring your baby and a cake — I take care of everything else. After the smash, your little one gets to splash in a mini bath for an easy (and fun!) clean-up, and once they’re all done, you can simply pack up and head home while I handle the mess. You already have plenty on your plate, so I truly love being able to make this an easy, enjoyable experience for you.
To this beautiful family — thank you for trusting me again to capture another unforgettable milestone. It truly means the world to me to be part of your story.
Here’s to many more memories, milestones, and cake-covered smiles in the studio 💛
