All of us girls at the studio wear many different hats when it comes to what needs to get done around here. And for me (in addition to being the Kids & Family Photographer) one of my favorite roles to play is Creative Director & Set Designer.

… Especially for First Birthday Cake Smash Sessions!

There is always a range of wants when it comes to first birthday portraits. Some people like to keep it classic and minimalist – all about the baby – and those always turn out stunning! But there’s something so fun about tying in the party theme with the photo shoot, building elaborate sets, and creating the PERFECT party invitations and thank you cards!
