As an Indianapolis newborn photographer, I get to see babies grow up right in front of my lens. And that first year? It flies by.
That’s why first birthday sessions matter. These sessions freeze time—just for a moment—so you can always remember your baby as they are right now.
Cake Smashes Capture Personality
Cake smashes aren’t just about the cake. They’re about who your baby is at one.
Some babies dive right in. Others take their time or barely touch it. All of that is okay. It’s part of what makes each session real and personal.
For this pastel pink floral session, the baby was happy and relaxed. She smiled, explored a little, and gave us the perfect expressions. No over-the-top mess, just sweet and simple joy.
Custom Cake Smash Setups for Every Baby
As an Indianapolis photographer, I take pride in making each session unique.
Here’s how it works:
Parents send me a picture of their baby’s cake smash outfit and theme choice at least three weeks before the session. That gives me time to build a custom setup around your baby’s style and personality.
No two sessions look the same. Your gallery will reflect your baby—not a generic set.
Want Even More Milestones? Try a Grow with Me Package
If you’re looking for more than just first birthday photos, I also offer Grow with Me packages. These allow you to book multiple sessions during your baby’s first year—including:
- Newborn session
- Milestone sessions (like sitting or tummy time)
- First birthday + cake smash
It’s the best way to capture all the little changes that happen so fast. Many of my clients start with a newborn session and come back again and again. It’s one of the most rewarding parts of my job.
Let’s Freeze Time—Together
Whether your baby digs into the cake or just gives us a few sweet smiles, your session will tell their story.
