NC First Birthday Photographer | Raleigh, NC | Bri’s Cake Splash Preview

 

Ahhhhhhhhh!!! I just can’t get enough of these cake splash sessions!!!!! They are so so fun! Especially when there is edible gold glitter in the cake design!! Yes, you read that right, edible gold glitter. Layla Jones Bake Shop made a cute glitter crown as a cake topper. Bri was far more interested in the crown than she was for the most of hr cake, and thats OK because she was cute as a button. (Pssssssst, yes, it comes out with glitter, hahaha).

Even though she liked to eat and walk, which so many children do, we did luck out when she needed to sit because she made herself thirsty with all that running around. That is when I was able to get some cute snaps of her sitting with the cake. I just love her smile. And with all those little teeth…. PURE cuteness!

Bri’s momma ran around the studio and worked hard very every single shot! Mom also designed most of the cake smash including her light pink tutu and those gold bows for her hair. They helped bring in more gold into the shoot, and with the gold cake stand, gold lettering on her onesie, gold glitter polka dots it seemed to really marry gold into the session a few different ways without making it look TOO gold.

After she was clear to us that she was over the cake smash, it was time for a little splash. We changed the backdrop to keep the color pink, so I chose a much bolder pink and I LOVE the way it turned out. I loved that we kept the gold bows in her hair too. She was pretty serious during this session, but I think the bath was letting her relax and get a little sleepy. She sure did seem to enjoy it, especially when we had some bubbles. I have an battery operated bubble machine but I think it is a bit unruly and sometimes it makes so many bubbles so fast that it gets close to feeling like a 90’s from party! Haha.
