Sussex Cake Smash
Cake Smash Portraits £49
A cake smash photo shoot is a messy, fun session you’ll love to keep as a reminder of baby’s first birthday.
Watch the fun as your baby makes the most of their first birthday cake while we capture the whole scene for posterity. You'll LOVE the pictures we take for you!
The cake smash is ideal for first birthday baby portraits. Not only does it mark this important milestone, but the cake also helps keep a wriggling, crawling, fast-moving baby in one place so we can get your portraits for you!
No rules: just bring a suitably yummy, messy cake for baby to do with as they please – with predictably messy results!

Cake Smash Portraits FAQs
A few of the most common questions answered...
When should we arrange our baby cake smash portraits?
For the best cake smash portraits, we recommend arranging your photoshoot for when your baby is close to his or her first birthday.
Cake smash portraits are the perfect way to mark the milestone of your baby's first birthday, and we're happy to include a few 'normal' baby portraits before we begin the cake smash. Then we'll begin real fun with the messy cake smash photos!
How long will my cake smash session take?
All our baby portrait sessions are kept relatively short because we know all babies have a short attention span. A cake smash portrait session will take up to an hour.
Do I need to bring special cake smash props or anything?
Nope! There's no need for you to bring any props - we supply all the props and background to create some great cake smash photos for you... in fact everything except the cake and baby!.
What about clothing?
We recommend selecting a really lovely outfit for your cake smash portraits. Yes, it may get a bit messy... but we guarantee you'll be keeping your beautiful cake smash portraits for years and years (waaaay longer than the outfit) so you'll want this to be something you'll really love seeing even after your baby is fully grown!
We recommend looking at the set we'll be using and making sure baby's outfit (and cake) match with similar colours. We'll send you more advice about this after your booking is confirmed.
Who provides the cake for a cake smash portrait session?
To avoid allergy issues, we ask you to provide your own cake for a cake smash session. Make it as messy as you like, and we'll take care of the mess afterwards!
Can we include a few parent shots?
We can include a few family portraits if you want to... although the focus for a cake smash portrait session is always on your baby enjoying their first birthday cake.
How many portraits will I get?
We shoot fast and takes lots of images during a cake smash session, so we'll have a great gallery of images to choose from. You can choose a collection to include sets of 5, 10 or ALL finished images (min 20). All collections include digital copies, in high and low-resolution formats, and you can add extras if required.
