FIRST BIRTHDAY WITH A CAKE SMASH | TOP 3 REASONS WHY

Is it just me, or does it sound like your little one might be having a birthday soon? It sure is a special moment celebrating the milestone with your little one’s first year. FIRST BIRTHDAY WITH A CAKE SMASH is truly special. It is my FAVORITE SESSION to photograph. 

I mean who wouldn’t want to give a baby cake in the morning?!

The  biggest MILESTONE of the first year is the FIRST BIRTHDAY!!

There are a lot of changes that happen within the FIRST YEAR and many milestones. The best MILESTONE of the first year is their FIRST BIRTHDAY. Because of this, I decided to take a moment to chat about the importance of celebrating your baby’s FIRST BIRTHDAY WITH A CAKE SMASH! 

You may wonder why you should book a FIRST BIRTHDAY WITH A CAKE SMASH rather than a standard portrait session.

 

(And YES! I do standard portraits for babies first birthday before we begin smashing into CAKE!)

3. CELEBRATING

You are celebrating your baby’s first YEAR! You SURVIVED! The first year goes so quickly. If you BLINK, it’s gone in a FLASH! One moment you are counting baby toes, then, before you know it, you are trying to catch up with them! Where did those little snuggles go? LET’S CELEBRATE their first year with a fun cake smash. I’ll provide the balloons and create a setup that is just perfect for this celebration. It’s such a joy watching them giggle and stuff cake in their mouth and a fun way to experience your baby’s first birthday with them.

2. EXPERIENCE New Birthday TREND

Covid has made it hard to have traditional birthday parties. Because of this, I have noticed a NEW TREND in the CAKE SMASH SESSIONS. Most parents have started booking their FIRST BIRTHDAY WITH A CAKE SMASH on THEIR BIRTHDAY! It has become one of my favorite moments. Being able to sing Happy Birthday and watch their eyes light up! AH! It truly is a special memory that will last forever!

1. SENSORY PLAY

Sensory Play is so much FUN! One of the best reasons for having a FIRST BIRTHDAY WITH A CAKE SMASH is simply that! Your child isn’t just making a mess, oh no, they are learning and using their senses! Sensory play can also have plenty of benefits. Cake Smash sessions are a great unique way to help your child develop. I also add in a SPLASH BATH for even more sensory fun.

BENEFITS OF SENSORY PLAY WITH YOUR BABY

---

Whether it’s messy play or not, your child can learn hand/eye coordination which gives their fine motor skills a good head start. It is essential for their development.

Sensory play can also be great for calming an anxious or frustrated child. This type of play gives every child the opportunity to play in their way with little to no rules.

It is a great way to introduce them to the TODDLER stage they are about to enter and the top reason for booking a CAKE SMASH SESSION with me.
