About The Big One: First Birthday & Cake Smash
My at-home studio setup brings professional lights, backdrops, and props to your living room, so your baby stays in a familiar environment. But remember, this is a team sport. Whether your baby is curious or hesitant, I need you nearby to sing, dance, and encourage them. We keep the mood light and follow their pace, ensuring we catch genuine laughter instead of forced smiles.
A first birthday session is about capturing your child's personality in that moment, not just a perfect photo. My approach is simple: we start with clean portraits, move to the main event, and finish with a bubble bath to clean up the mess.
Why a Home Session?
Packing up a one-year-old with outfits, snacks, and gear is a mission. By bringing my equipment to you, we eliminate the travel fatigue. Whether your house is cozy or the lighting is tricky, I handle the technical side so you can focus on your child. I bring a variety of themes, such as minimalist, rustic, or colorful setups, along with high-quality props like wooden crates and marquee letters.
How It Works
We allocate up to 2.5 hours, which is more than enough time for breaks, feeding, or just comforting a grumpy baby.
- The Smash: I use floor protection mats to keep your space clean. The cake is provided by you, allowing you to choose a flavor and brand you trust for any allergies.
- The Splash: After the cake smash, we move to a galvanized metal tub with warm water and bubbles. This is usually when babies relax and give us the most joyful expressions.
Preparation Tips
- Timing: Schedule the shoot during a time of day when your baby is usually well-rested and happy, typically after their morning nap.
- Wardrobe: I offer access to a client closet featuring rompers and dresses imported from Russia, but feel free to mix in your own outfits.
- Participation: Your role is key. Be prepared to get messy and be right in the frame if needed. When you engage with your baby, I can capture those honest, unscripted reactions that make the best photos.
