The Cake Smash Package – Starting at $400 (includes cake)
Is your little one ready to turn one? Let’s capture that first taste of cake with a stylized cake smash session.
Sessions are 60-90 minutes long and come with 20 digital portraits, a slideshow, 3 5x7s and 1 8×10 printed at my pro lab from the images you select. Additional prints can be ordered through your final gallery. Additional portraits are $12 an image and can be selected when you receive your proof gallery.
My cake smash sessions start off with standard portraits. This session is allowed one outfit change, so this would be the time to get a few different shots in different outfit. I offer a few different outfits in my client closet for sessions for both boys and girls. Pictures with mom and dad or siblings can also be done at this time. After we’ve gotten the standard portraits out of the way we’ll release the beast and let your little one have at it with their cake. Some don’t know what to make of it, others shove their entire face in it. It’s really quite entertaining to watch.
If your session has time and you’d like to include it, I also have a vintage claw foot tub we can use for post-smash photos. Babies can wear their diapers, a swim diaper or a swimsuit. The tub is water tight. For in-home sessions we can fill it, if you’d like them to play in the water. For outdoor sessions we can also shoot with blown bubbles and avoid showing the inside of the tub to create the illusion of water.
Cake smash packages include a cake. The cake I provide is a white nearly naked frosted cake in vanilla. These cakes are 5″ in size and decorated to match your set. Normally I decorate these with flowers or small items from your set and a number one.
This package is allowed one theme/set design. Perfect for milestone sessions for your baby or seasonal sessions to capture some fun. I have done many different types of themes for portrait sessions and am a serial prop collector. Have a vision? Let’s make it happen.

The Process
When you contact me to book your session, we will go over the type of session you’ll be choosing, the theme/occasion, set design, clothing choices, location and more. I am more than happy to suggest clothing or color choices and I love designing sets. My job is to make your little one look good!
After your session, I head back to my office to get started on your proofs. Turnaround for my proofs is generally 1 week. Proofs are edited, but not fully retouched, full retouching comes after you select your final images. Your proofs will be delivered to you via a secure proofing gallery where you can choose the images you want to keep. My sessions typically produce 2x the amount of images included in your package. If you would like to add additional images the charge is $12 an image.
After you have chosen your proofs, I put the finishing touches on your images and get to work on your slideshow if your package includes it. This process usually takes about 24-48 hours. When your final images are ready for download you will receive an email with a link to your secure download. There you can download your images and choose the images you want printed. Each package comes with a few prints, additional prints can also be ordered at this time.
