Boy’s First Birthday Cake Smash

We love simple and cute cake smash themes! This little boy’s first birthday session was adorable. We loved his suspenders and cute little bow tie! Before his cake smash, we went outside for a quick portrait session in the garden.

🌊🌞 Senior year. The last chapter before they step into the big, wide world. It feels like just yesterday they were learning to tie their shoes, and now here they are—ready to take on whatever comes next. 💕

💭 If your senior could give their younger self one piece of advice, what do you think it would be? 🩵

🌈✨ One year. 12 months. 365 days of watching your little sunshine grow into their own tiny person. 💕
This Boho Rainbow cake smash was all about celebrating the brightest light in their family’s life. From their first smiles to their first steps, this year has been full of color, joy, and unforgettable moments. 🎂🌸
The thing about first birthdays? It’s not just a milestone for your baby—it’s a celebration of you, too. All the late nights, big hugs, and endless love you’ve poured into them… and look how far you’ve come together. 💛

Hi there! Yes, you! This is your sign to not wait until the last minute.
Summer’s coming. Schedules fill up fast. Time flies.
And the moments you meant to capture?
Yeah… those tend to disappear the quickest.
Someday, these photos won’t feel like “right now.”
They’ll feel like:
Remember when…
Remember when they were this little.
Remember when you lived here.
Remember when life felt like this.
That’s the magic of photos.
Let’s get your session on the books before life gets in the way.

🎂✨ They say “the days are long, but the years are short,” and WOW, does that hit harder when your little one turns ONE. 😭💕
It feels like just yesterday you were cradling them in your arms, and now they’re smashing cake like a pro. 🍰💥 This stage? It’s fleeting. The chubby cheeks, the tiny giggles, the curiosity in their eyes—it’s all changing faster than we’d like to admit.
Let’s celebrate this milestone in a way that you can look back on for years to come. Because trust me, you’re going to miss these moments one day.
