Cake Smash Photography in Essex and Hertfordshire

​

A cake smash photoshoot is a fun and memorable way to celebrate your baby’s first birthday. I offer cake smash sessions across Essex and Hertfordshire including Epping, Harlow, Bishop’s Stortford, Sawbridgeworth, Hertford and Ware.

 

Each session is styled with care to create vibrant, joyful images that capture your little one’s personality during this exciting milestone.

​

A Fun and Relaxed First Birthday Experience

​

Cake smash sessions are designed to be playful and enjoyable from start to finish. Your baby can explore, taste, squeeze and fully enjoy their cake while I capture all the adorable reactions and expressions. The studio provides a safe and comfortable space with a setup tailored to your chosen theme, colours and style.

​

Styling and Preparation

​

Each session includes a carefully styled setup with coordinated decor, soft textures and accessories that complement your chosen theme. I provide guidance on outfits and colour palettes and can recommend themes that photograph beautifully. The cake can be included or brought by you depending on preferences and allergies.

​

Many parents pair their cake smash session with earlier milestone shoots, newborn photography or family sessions to build a cohesive collection of images as their baby grows.

Booking Your Cake Smash Photoshoot

​

Cake smash sessions are best booked a few weeks before your baby turns one to allow time to plan your theme and styling. You can reserve your session through the booking page, or contact me to discuss your ideas. The blog also features examples of popular themes and tips for planning the perfect first birthday photoshoot.
