Cake smash and baby milestone sessions are held in indoor at Anchor Studio located in The Junction as well as outdoors in the GTA during warmer months. Photographs are captured at Mint Room Studios offering a number of beautiful, natural light studios ranging from classical white rooms, a creamy bohemian room and moodier tones too.

Cake Smash sessions are best done when your little one is between 11-12 months old (when they are sitting unassisted but not yet walking) and will go for approximately 1 hour. We start out cake smash sessions with a portrait session of your little one, this includes one set up with clothing provided from my client closet. After this, we continue will family portraits of you and you little one (these will be your child’s fave when they look back on them years from now) and finally bring out the cake smash. Once your little one has enjoyed smashing their ca smashing their cake, we will pop them in a nice warm mini bubble bath and capture some awesome splashing!

We take the hard work out of it for you! Our cakes are made by a vendor we work with that delivers them to the studio the day of your session. The cakes are a delicious, 5 inch vanilla, buttercream cake made for your little one to smash. We like to keep the cakes as simple as possible, so we don’t take away from your little one and all the cute expressions they will make!

Below are a variety of different sessions from outdoor themed sessions to ones in studio. If you have a specific request or theme, just let me know and I will be happy to work with you and discuss your vision for your session during our phone consultation.

Cake smashing with a tired bub isn’t fun, so try to schedule your booking in with your little ones sleeping pattern, when they are rested after nap time and fully awake. It is also important to make sure your little one has eaten it its not their normal eating time so they wont get unsettled for the session. Bring extra snacks and a drink for them to have between smashing. The Session will get very messy!! So its important for mum and dad to wear clothing that is okay to get covered in cake and a spare change of clothes for you two is a good idea.
