Cake Smash

It’s a First Birthday Cake Smash!  Nothing like an adorable little one and a cake to start the day off right.  It’s perhaps the biggest and most celebrated milestone so be sure to capture it professionally!  And that means hiring a professional who can capture it right.  You want more than just one or two photos.  You want an entire gallery of great images to compose the most adorable memories in a beautiful coffee table book.

DETAILS

The 1st Birthday Cake Smash takes place in my Cranford, NJ studio. The session includes my time and talent to capture your fully-edited final images.  And, I provide carefully and personally selected props such as handmade swags, balloons and paper flowers to match your backdrop/color selection.  Clients may bring any additional props they would like to include.

The session begins with more formal photos of baby and ends with the smash.  You may change birthday baby if you desire (up to 3 changes).  You will need to provide an outfit for your little one for the actual smash (I can always help with recommendations).  The Cake Smash is for the birthday baby ONLY, sorry no sibling or parent photos.  Once a theme is selected, it cannot be changed due to prop purchases.  Due to the recent increase in allergies, I require clients to bring their own smash cake. Please, before you order a smash cake, discuss the details with me.  I have been smashing cakes with babies for 11 years and have some advice that I would love to share with you to make your session the most successful smash.

About Jacqueline

I am so proud to say that 2025 marks my 15thAnniversary as a small business in New Jersey.  My specialty is modern portraiture for newborns, maternity, family and children (including babies, communion, cake smashes, and high school seniors) and I capture sessions throughout New Jersey, NYC or in my studio in Cranford, NJ.  Studio Sessions are for newborns, babies, small children, and fine art portraiture for older children/teens.

As a small business for over a decade, I have been honing my craft while capturing life, landscape and stage photography for over 35 years.  This is not my “hustle” or hobby. It’s so much more. It’s my livelihood and my labor of love.  I pride myself in providing my clients with the best quality images, products and service. I understand the importance of memories and skillfully capturing them and work under the philosophy of “I capture for my clients what I would want for myself.”

My captures have graced newsprint, magazines, online social media and television shows such as US Weekly (multiple times), BET, The New York Times, The Pittsburgh Post Gazette, The Wendy Williams Show, and USA Network on The Cromarties among many others.
