MILESTONES

tiny moments turn into big memories | every milestone deserves to be remembers | i'm here to capture them all


Turning one is a milestone worth celebrating—full of curiosity, personality, and so much growth in just twelve short months. Our cake smash and portrait sessions are designed to capture both sides of this special moment: classic, timeless portraits and the playful joy of a first birthday celebration.


We begin each session with simple, child-led portraits, allowing your little one to settle in and be themselves. Then we transition into a relaxed cake smash, where curiosity, laughter, and messy moments naturally unfold. The result is a beautifully balanced gallery that captures your child’s personality and this milestone in an authentic, memorable way.


Once your session is booked, you’ll receive a complete guide with styling tips, session flow, and preparation details to help you feel fully prepared. Every session is thoughtfully planned to reflect your vision while keeping the experience easy and enjoyable for your child.


To ensure each first birthday session is calm and personalized, we take a limited number of sessions each month. We recommend booking 2-3 months in advance to secure availability. Sessions are available in-studio or outdoors (season dependent), creating a space that best fits your child and celebration style.

Kind words from 1st birthday milestone clients

"You did an incredible job capturing our little family! One would never know how stubborn our little girl was being with all the smiles you got out of her. You were incredibly easy to work with and so great at rescheduling when some sickness affected our original date. We look forward to working with you again!"
