Cake Smash Photography Portfolio

A Cake Smash is one playful way to celebrate and photograph your child’s birthday milestone.

Some children dive straight into the cake. Others take tiny tastes, cautiously explore the icing or are more interested in the balloons and people around them. Every child reacts differently and that’s part of what makes the photographs personal.

A Cake Smash photoshoot can also include classic birthday portraits and family photographs with Mum, Dad and siblings before things get messy.

Planning A Cake Smash?

A little preparation can help your child feel more comfortable with the experience. From choosing the right session time to bringing familiar items and knowing what to expect if your child isn’t interested in smashing the cake.

Read our 5 Tips For A Great Cake Smash Photoshoot With Your One-Year-Old before your session.

Birthday sets, props and decorative details shown in our portfolio reflect sessions photographed over the years. Current setup options may vary.

Prefer Something Other Than Cake?

If you like the playful idea of a food-based birthday photoshoot but don’t want a traditional Cake Smash, we’ve also photographed Fruit Smash sessions using familiar fruit such as watermelon.

See our Fruit Smash Photography – A Cake Smash Alternative.

Not Sure Cake Smash Is Your Style?

A birthday photoshoot doesn’t have to include cake.

You can keep the photographs simple and classic, add a birthday celebration setup without cake, or include Cake Smash as the playful finale.

Can We Include Family Photos Too?

Yes.

We can photograph your child with Mum, Dad and siblings before moving into the Cake Smash, while everyone is still clean and ready for photographs.

This means you can preserve both the birthday milestone and an updated family portrait in the same session.

If family photographs are the main priority for your session, see our Family Photoshoot packages and what to expect.

I had an amazing experience with Bambini Photography. Cake smash photography was done very beautifully, photographer was very professional, friendly and worked really hard to capture beautiful candid moments with baby.

Our experience with the photographer Syafiq was amazingly awesome!! He was great with the kids and managed to get great shots of them even though my baby was fussy from his lack of nap. The color theme was very well planned out. I loved every shot of the entire session that I opted to keep all soft copies! Highly recommended for any family with young children!

Firstly I would like to thank Syafiq, our photographer for my baby girl 1st birthday and family photoshot. He is very patient, friendly and professional, he takes some time for warming up my baby until she shows out her big smile as usual. He took a lot wonderful photos for us.

Also, I would like to thank Lydia, for helping booked the session on the exact date of my girl’s birthday. She always friendly and helpful.

Last, thanks Shawna for attending my request for photo adjustment.

We really had pleasant experience with Bambini, sure will return again! Thanks Bambini Team!
