💎 “How do I choose the perfect outfit for a cake smash?”

One of the best ways to elevate your baby’s session is to coordinate their outfit with the set. For this Tiffany & Co. theme, mom went classic…a black dress, pearl necklace, and even tiny sunglasses! It made the whole setup feel polished and timeless while still playful.

Think of colors, accessories, or even a favorite brand that inspires you. The outfit doesn’t just photograph beautifully, it tells the story of this stage in your child’s life.

Yes — and it’s stunning.

The bold red against the soft tones of the ocean? Total showstopper. Pair it with classic suits and suddenly your beach session feels elevated and elegant, without losing the fun.

Don’t be afraid to dress up. The beach can handle it.

“Will wind ruin our beach session?”
I get this question more often than you’d think, especially from families planning beach portraits.

Truth is, the beach comes with surprises. Wind, waves, and wild hair sometimes just come with the territory. But that doesn’t mean your photos won’t turn out beautifully.

This session? One of the windiest we’ve ever photographed.
But never fear. The outcome was great.

We plan, we prep… and then we roll with it. And I’ll be there guiding you every step of the way.

Yes — but keep it soft, polished, and true to you.
Think timeless, elevated, natural.
You want to still look like you — just the best version.
And yes, lashes photograph beautifully. 😉

Yes, and it makes them so personal.
Home is where real life happens — the cozy corners, the dog at your feet, the way your teen still leans on you (sometimes 😉).
It’s the story of this chapter, and it’s worth remembering.
