First Year Milestone Session

In a recent session, I had the pleasure of capturing a succulent-themed first birthday cake smash. The setup was adorned with a delightful mix of gold and green tones, creating a stunning backdrop. The cake did not disappoint which was also succulent filled (but the editable buttercream type). As always, the cake smash session began […]

Hey there! I’m your friendly neighborhood Indianapolis photographer, and I’ve had the privilege of capturing some truly heartwarming milestone photography sessions recently. There just aren’t enough hours in the day to blog all the milestone sessions that I photograph, but I thought I would combine a few sessions and share some insights to help you […]

Who needs elaborate themes or fancy characters when a single color can bring a burst of wonder? This session proved that simplicity can be downright fabulous! We did a blue ombre cake smash session and it was just perfection. Sessions do not always have to have themes or characters- just a color can be a […]

This was such a sweet loving family. Everyone, especally big brother, was so excited about the new baby boy. Family pictures with a newborn baby are always a joy, but they are extra special when everyone is so excited about the baby. Big brother couldn’t keep his hands off of his baby. He is going […]

This adorable little man is one and we got to celebrate! We did a boho take on the “you are my sunshine” theme. There was also a small rainbow added in as an ode to this guy being a rainbow baby. The birthday boy is the third baby in the family that I have photographed […]

This sweet baby girl was all smiles for her sitter session at 8 months old. She had the BEST baby rolls. I mean look at those cheeks, wrists and ankles. Just. The. Best! Such a fun little session with one of my favorite families. I loved her sweet little outfits and her curly hair. I […]

This theme is really popular- winter ONEderland- but I love it! I enjoyed the pops of trees and twinkling lights that we used. This was mom’s choice- she wanted a white take on this theme with lots of lights and I think that it turned out ONEderful!! The sweet birthday girl got messy and full […]

What a way to celebrate turning one- with a 007 James Bond themed cake smash session! This little man was SUPER into his session and one of the most excited cake smash kiddos that I have had in the studio. His outfit was perfect for the session and he looked so cute. He was all […]

Mason is one and I can hardly believe it! It seems like just yesterday that he was in the studio for his newborn session! The backdrop and theme of the cake smash session was PERFECT for this blue eyed little guy! The blue ombre was a hit and I LOVED IT! Mason looked so sweet […]

I would estimate that about 70% of the babies that come into the studio don’t really like to eat the cake. They may take a bite or two but cake is not like foods they are exposed to on a daily basis and so it’s not really something they are used to. There is also […]
