Redmond WA Cake Smash Photographer

I got to spend the day as baby Sophia’s Redmond WA cake smash photographer! Do you want to join the celebration? It involves two beautiful party dresses, a custom cake (sorry, this one is just for the birthday girl), and some fun rubber ducky friends! But the absolute best part of this celebration has to be the great big birthday smiles! Little Sophia was full of them! And you bet, I captured each and every one of them during her cake smash session.

We kicked things off for baby Sophia’s first birthday session with a round of classic portraits. Sophia’s mom selected the most special birthday dress for her little one to wear. A beautiful gold dress with intricately embroidered flowers and leaf detailing. To top it off, the birthday girl wore a nice and comfy stretchy gold headband with a bow detail to match her gown. 

When it was time to get her portrait session rolling, I pulled out my upholstered chaise and mid-century modern tot-sized chairs just for the occasion.  Little Sophia was such an adoring subject in front of the camera! She was positively full of smiles, and so ready to show off her brand new teeth. Not only that, but she was able to stand and hold onto the edge of the chaise! It was the perfect little pose to show off her fantastic birthday dress.

I love working with my birthday girls and boys on their classic portraits. It gives us some time together to help them get comfortable with the idea of my camera pointing at them. After all, it can be a little frightening to have a lady you just met talking to you in an effort to get the biggest smiles possible! In addition to the comfort level, it also gives parents those adorable poses to hang in their homes of their sweet babies wearing their very first birthday outfits. That is, until we get started with the cake smash portion of their session!

For Sophia’s cake smash session, her parents chose my barn door setup (one of my most popular!). But I turned it into more of a shabby chic feeling with the addition of oversized pink flowers, plenty of twinkle lights, and some faux Spanish moss. The floral elements made the entire setup that much more special for baby Sophia. When it was time to bring out her cake, Sophia had a quick outfit change from her gold party dress to an absolutely darling pink tulle dress with ruffle sleeves and tiny flower details. Her little dress was so pretty and a perfect match for her cake smash setup!

To match the Southern Belle ambiance we had for Sophia’s cake smash, I commissioned a four-tier cake. To show off the beautiful layers, I went with a cake that only displayed frosting on the top of each layer, leaving the sides open for a more rustic look. It also allowed the addition of a few faux pink flowers to tie together her whole theme. Sophia was not afraid to give her cake a little taste, and her frosting and cake-crumb smile was absolutely priceless. You can see each moment of Sophia’s first birthday session, including portraits and her cake smash, when you scroll through the photos below.
