Cuyahoga Falls Cake Smash Photographer

Cake Smash photography sessions are one of my very favorite sessions here at Blush!

This portrait session is a popular way to celebrate your baby’s first birthday. Whether your baby is walking or still crawling, we will be able to get a great variety of portraits by utilizing special props and child-sized seating. This session is a fun (and messy!) way to capture your baby’s adorable personality. Most families choose to book their portraits when their babies are eleven months old so that they can display the portraits at their birthday parties.

This session is usually quite active and silly, with your baby’s favorite songs playing in the background or their favorite toys in hand. I like to create a stress-free and fun atmosphere while giving the baby time to warm up to me and explore the studio.

Every session here in the studio is custom designed to meet your vision. First birthday sessions include up to three outfits, beginning with traditional set-ups and ending with the cake smash portion. The family is welcome to join in with the birthday girl or boy for a pose to celebrate this special milestone. While we do not provide the cakes for our cake smash sessions at this time, I am always happy to share a list of my favorite bakers in the area or tips for those families that would like to bake their own. The cake portion of the session often matches the birthday party theme, but the possibilities are endless!

Sweet Grayson is one!

We had the best time visiting Grayson and the entire family for a day of updated portraits. (check out of his big sister Emersyn’s photos also on the blog!)

Grayson is all smiles and just the sweetest little guy. We stuck with a light and airy setting in their home and as always his mom Kayla had the perfect accessories ready. He loved playing with the giant birthday balloons and sported some pretty cute outfits. (Is there anything better than an adorable chubby toddler in bib overalls?) After a quick family session we wrapped up with the cake smash. He was not quite sure about his cake and messy hands at first, but once he had a fork he was all in! (what a little gentleman!) We are so happy to see you again baby Gray and we can’t wait to see you grow and grow!

We had the best time with sweet Robert and his special first birthday photoshoot!

He had an adorable “Never Touch a Monster” birthday, based on his favorite book, so we decided to have some fun with that theme. He had a sweet and simple custom white set with pops of bright colors and textures to compliment his special birthday onsie. We had a lot of fun making the banners and couldn’t get over the monster smash cake by Sugar High Bake Shop Akron. The monster cake was almost too cute to eat! Robert was all too happy to tear into the cake, making for some great cake smash photos!

For his second set, Robert was looking dapper on a sweet and simple farmhouse set. (How perfect are those suspenders?!) He kept us on our toes with his speed-crawling off set, but also charmed us with his many adorable expressions and amazing curls! We think that he is ready for his modeling debut.

Happy Birthday sweet Robert, we hope that you have the best day!
