Celebrate Your Baby’s First Birthday in the Most Fun Way!

There’s nothing quite like a Smash Cake Session to celebrate your baby’s milestone. Turning ONE is such a special moment, and what better way to remember it than with a playful, messy, and joy-filled photoshoot?

Kids love to explore, play, and yes… make a mess! A cake smash photoshoot is the perfect way to capture their curiosity and laughter while creating unforgettable memories.

At Studio Sabrina Luz, I create a safe, fun, and colorful environment so your little one can shine while you relax and enjoy the moment.

How the Smash Cake Session Works

Each session lasts up to one hour and is designed to give you a full variety of photos:

1. Before the Cake – Baby & Family Portraits

We begin with a mini photoshoot before the cake comes out. I capture beautiful solo portraits of your baby and, if you’d like, we can include parents and siblings too. This helps your baby feel comfortable and gives you timeless family memories.

2. The Smash – Messy, Fun & Memorable!

Here comes the star of the show: the cake! Your little one will explore, smash, and enjoy the sweet treat in their own unique way. The result? Genuine smiles, giggles, and colorful, playful images you’ll treasure forever.

3. The Splash – Bubbles & Clean Fun

After all the messy fun, it’s time for a little splash! I fill a small tub with water and bubbles for your baby to enjoy. It’s not only a great way to clean up but also another adorable set of photos.

About the Cake

To make the most out of your photos, here are a few tips for choosing the perfect smash cake:

  • Avoid chocolate & red icing: They can look messy or even “bloody” in photos.

  • Soft icing works best: Buttercream or whipped cream is perfect for smashing and playing.

  • Size matters: A cake of about 8–10 inches in diameter is ideal. Bigger cakes can overwhelm little ones.

  • Practice makes perfect: Give your baby a small cupcake before the session so they get familiar with the texture and taste.

What to Bring

  • The cake (unless we arrange otherwise).

  • A change of clothes for baby

  • A favorite toy or comfort item if your child needs warming up.
