Orange County cake smash – Pink and Gold

Orange County cake smash – Pink and Gold

Orange County cake smash photography is on the rise at Gilmore Studios! First birthday sessions are becoming a daily occurrence at the Costa Mesa photography studio. With moms requesting themes such as outer space, on the farm, lumberjack, or a super girlie pet cake smash!

Creating one of a kind themes

The set design team has their work cut out for them! Owner & photographer Jennifer Gilmore says, “there is a new pile of boxes waiting at my door for me everyday, full of props for upcoming sessions!” Building the birthday sets is the most difficult part of the job since every set is custom made to the clients theme or color scheme. Jennifer says, “I work closely with each mom sending Pinterest links and coordinating outfits via email for the cake smash session.”

The best cake designers

Gilmore Studios also supplies the custom cake seen in all of their cake smash sessions. “Our cake designer is the best! French’s Cupcake Bakery always completes the birthday set with one of their custom designed (and delicious) birthday cakes.”

Props:

Cake designer: French’s Cupcake Bakery

Wooden backdrop: Pepperlu

Pink backdrop: Lemondrop Backdrops

Gold candle: Jamboree Party Box

Printing your photos is so important. I loved doing this project of scanning, retouching and repairing old photographs. Printing them and matting them so they can be displayed was my favorite part. Love that history can live on through photographs. Let me know if you want to make an heirloom box of your own family history. #Printyourphotos #photography #photo #familyhistory #heirloom
