Harpers Cake Smash

I was blown away when Harper’s mom contacted me to schedule Harper’s first birthday cake smash session. How has it already been a FULL year?!? I’m not going to lie, I had to check and make sure. Haha! Sometimes a year flies by faster than we can ever imagine.

Cake smash sessions can be so unpredictable. Many times, between the funny texture that frosting has along with the newly 1 year old’s ability to me mobile, ensures no session is the same. With Harper’s cake smash session, she wasn’t a huge fan of the cake but she didn’t mind the sugar buzz she got from eating it! It made some of her faces and expressions classic!!

I have really become quite fond of the color combination pink and navy, and this cake smash session. This contrast of colors was an idea and vision that Harper’s mommy had for the session… and I am so glad she did. I was also thrilled to use this beautiful cake stand again. I think it is so elegant and gives a since of “girly”.

Recently, I added a new option to cake smash sessions… They are called Cake SPLASH sessions. Right after the cake smash portion of the session, we bring out a baby tub, rubber duckies and sometimes some bubbles, and let the little one splash around until the get bored of that. It usually happens fast, because they are all hopped up on sugar and don’t care much to sit still. Haha. But Harper loved this part of her first birthday session. She made us laugh several times with her splashing. I couldn’t get enough of her ponytail on the top of her head and how it bounced around as she splashed. It makes me with we got video.
