Cake Smash & Splash Sessions

THE ultimate session for celebrating your babies first birthday.

Cake Smashes are one of my favourite sessions to photograph, combining fun and delicious cake! What could be better?

Anyone who has experienced a cake smash with me knows how much I adore them. You might not find me in my best attire during the session, but that just means I’m ready to get messy too! Each cake smash session is unique and personalised. I dedicate myself to designing a set that hasn’t been used before, tailored to your preferences.

Our cake smashes always begin with a mini portrait session. Many parents bring a separate outfit for their little one, usually their party or birthday outfit. This ensures you have a beautiful memory of your child on their first birthday, before the cake fun begins.

Once we have captured some lovely shots of your little one looking fresh and clean, the real fun begins! If you’ve brought a second outfit, we’ll get them changed, and then it’s time to smash some cake!

After the cake smashing is over, we’ll pop your little one into one of our tiny bath tubs to capture some adorable images of them splashing about and getting rid of the stickiness. Please note, not all little ones enjoy the tub, and that’s perfectly fine. We have plenty of wipes on hand to clean them up before their journey home.

Our bespoke cake smash sessions are just £99, and this amount will be deducted from your chosen package at your view and order appointment, scheduled at the end of your session.

IT WAS SO FUNNY

What can I say, I can’t thank Ashleigh enough for the amazing photoshoot for my son’s first birthday, a monster cake smash theme. It was so funny and my son Liam enjoyed it very much. He loved playing with Ashleigh and she created the perfect setting for him. She captured Liam’s expression so well and all his pictures are just stunning.

Frequently asked questions;
How long will the session take?
Cake smash sessions take around an hour sometimes an hour & a half if you’re little one isn’t keen on new people. I have had some get so excited smashing & splashing that we’ve been done in 40 minutes!! It’s literally all down to how they feel on the day.
When is the best time to book my session?
The ideal time to book in your little ones cake smash is 6-8 weeks prior to their first birthday so that you have the images back in time for their celebrations.
