Cake Smash & First Birthday Photography

2019 was another great year – both personally and professionally. Personally I had my 2nd child so I took a 3 month maternity leave. Professionally I still photographed 131 kids and families from around the Indianapolis area, even though I took a quarter of the year off! So it’s been a busy year but I […]

When you wish upon a star…you have a ONEderful first birthday cake smash!  This adorable little fella just LOVED his cake so much and was having such a blast that the gallery for his shoot included over 130 images!!!  He looked like he was having the time of his life in every photo and he […]

This cake smash session was a completely new theme for me and I’m digging it. We did all white balloons and backdrop with a little bit of green floral. You know I love adding flowers and greenery into my newborn pictures so it’s no surprise that I enjoy adding it into cake smash sessions too. […]

It’s an exciting day, sweet Vera is one! This little lady is my first (and only) niece and she also happens to have the same birthday as me – so fun! This little lady had a rainbow themed birthday party and first birthday cake smash session. For her session we tried out a balloon arch. […]

Extra! Extra! Read all about it!  This little cutie is ONE and boy is it a great headline! This cake smash session theme was SO fun!! I had an interesting time tracking down newspaper but once I found a good lot of it we were good to go! By the time I was done with […]

I’ve had the joy of photographing all three boys in this family from birth until cake smash (and beyond). It’s been a joy watching each boy grow individually and also watching this wonderful family grow. I adore each of these boys and their parents. For Maclain’s first birthday cake smash session we decided on a […]

There was SO much to love about this cake smash session! This beauty had the most adorable baby curls, blue eyes, and smile. She was happy as could be even without the cake. Once we introduced the cake she was smitten. Her cake smash session was full of pink and blush colored flowers and topped […]

I’ve been photographing this adorable girl and her brother since birth.  I’m pretty sure that this sweet little girl should be a baby model because she is stunning.  We did a bunny themed cake smash because she was born right around Easter.  She seemed to really enjoy the cake smashing and she was definitely a […]

There is nothing like celebrating your first birthday with a Minnie Mouse themed cake smash session in pink and gold.  And that is just what this little cutie had.  It was all girl and super adorable.  She had so many sweet outfits- she must have a stylist!  She was completely enthralled by the cake and […]

I’ve very much enjoyed watching this sweet girl grow over the last year! She has always been such a happy and adorable little one! Her first birthday cake smash session was no exception.  I just LOVE the outfits that her family picked out for her. For her 1st birthday, she has a pink, teal and […]
