Smash The Cake

Smash-the-Cake photo sessions in studio!

Your baby’s first birthday is a unique moment—capture it with a Smash-the-Cake photoshoot! I welcome you to my studio in Les Sables-d'Olonne (or I can set up a mini studio at your home) to photograph your child’s birthday. A Smash-the-Cake session is the perfect opportunity to get beautiful studio portraits of your child, shots of you holding them, and photos with siblings and the whole family in a pretty set, before moving on to the cake photos!

I offer several backdrops and sets depending on whether you prefer a colorful, bright, warm, or pastel atmosphere. It’s also possible to choose a spectacular balloon-filled set :)

Smash-the-Cake sessions are generally done between 11 and 16 months, or at the same age range for 2-year-olds.

Find session rates at the bottom of the page.

The cake and set are personalized with the baby’s name and tailored to your wishes; you can also include elements in the decor. On the day of the session, you can take a few photos with the baby before the cake part. You may coordinate your outfits or not :)

Smash-the-Cake photo sessions are generally held:

  • In studio, in Les Sables-d'Olonne

  • Occasionally, sessions can take place at home, with a temporary studio set up by me at your place (with additional fees). If you’d like to book a session, feel free to contact me for a quote and online reservation..
