## About The Big One: First Birthdays & Cake Smashes

Many parents worry their baby won't 'cooperate' during a cake smash, but honestly, the best photos happen when things get a little messy. Whether your little one is shy with the cake or ready for a splash in the bubble bath, I just let them lead the way so we can catch those real, happy moments 🧿.

Your baby's first birthday is a fleeting, big deal. My studio in Sarjapura is built to handle the chaos, with four distinct setups that capture your child’s personality as it is right now.

### The Session Flow
We don't rush. We start with a formal portrait to get the classic shot, then move to a family portrait so parents can get in on the action. The main event is the cake smash, where I provide custom themed decor—think jungles, mermaids, or rustic setups—and an eggless cake. Finally, we finish with a bubble bath sequence. It’s not just for cleanup; it’s a whole extra set of photos where the kids usually have the most fun.

### What You Get
I keep the wardrobe simple and stress-free. I have a 'Client Closet' stocked with tutu skirts, suspenders, and bowties, so you don't need to stress about buying outfits for a one-time shoot. You receive 25 fully retouched, high-resolution images, plus every single raw file from the session. I believe those unedited shots are just as valuable because they show the raw, honest expressions of your baby that you'll want to look back on forever.

### Why Book in Advance
Since these are custom-themed, I recommend booking at least two weeks before your preferred date. This gives us enough time to source specific props or coordinate the cake colors with your chosen theme.
