...Because every their first birthday only comes once

northern va Cake Smash photographer

Your baby’s first year goes by in a flash, and before you know it, they’ve grown from a cuddly newborn into a curious toddler. During this time, the "firsts" fly by and can happen before your ready. As a Northern VA cake smash photographer, I can't slow down time, but I can freeze these precious moments and capture the joy of your little one's fist year of life. With every milestone, parents feel such pride watching their toddler learn and grow, seeing the little human they are becoming. A cake smash session is the perfect way to celebrate their biggest milestone—their 1st birthday!


Your child’s first birthday is a monumental occasion, and watching their personality shine during a cake smash photo shoot is pure joy. From their first belly laughs to sitting up, crawling, walking, and grabbing everything in sight, enjoying their first bite of birthday cake, and learning to talk and singing their favorite songs—every moment is a treasure. Not only do I capture them playing, laughing, exploring, and diving into their first birthday cake but I also take adorable pre-smash portraits, all with a cute customized set up based on the colors and theme you choose. These are the memories you’ll treasure forever.


At my Sterling, VA cake smash photography studio, I provide everything you need for a unique and memorable session for you one-year olds 1st birthday. From a client closet full of adorable handmade outfits in all sizes, to the cake, balloon garlands, and a wide selection of props, we’ve got it all covered! Every cake smash or first birthday session ends with “splash-time” photos—a fun bath-time set-up with options like a fruit bath, milk bath, or bubble bath to clean up the mess and add a little extra fun.

I am a Northern VA cake smash photographer who specializes in creating a fun, comfortable environment for your one year old, to ensure genuine smiles and laughter. Are you concerned about how your anxious or shy child will do in front of the camera? Don’t worry, no matter your child’s personality, I promise to make this session fun and stress-free. From "Baby Shark" sing-alongs to puppet shows and silly games, I’ll do whatever it takes to bring out your child’s brightest smile. No matter what stage, I'll capture all of the magic so that you can remember your toddlers first birthday forever.

Let’s make their 1st birthday unforgettable with a personalized cake smash session!
