First Birthday Cake Smash | Washington DC Baby Photographer

This celebratory first birthday cake smash was SO MUCH fun! This sweet family is one of my cherished return clients. I’ve been so lucky and blessed to be able to document so many family milestones! It is always such an honor when clients allow me to document so many important parts of their lives.

If you’re thinking of doing a first birthday cake smash for your little one…do it! Young children are often unpredictable in studio shoots, but that is part of what makes it so fun and special. I’ve experienced it all, and I am ready for it all! The tears (yup, they happen!), the smiles, the laughs…whatever it is I am ready! 

For these sessions, I am focused on capturing your little one’s personality and spirit! They are free to do whatever they want, however they want. These sessions are done in the studio, on an all white backdrop! They are super simple and completely baby-led! This is a no-stress, super fun time for everyone! The white backdrop gives you tons of freedom regarding outfit choices for your little one, and even cake design. It really is such a special and fun milestone!

As a Washington DC baby photographer, first birthday cake smash sessions are some of my most favorite to document! I love being able to see all the different reactions from the kiddos. If you’re looking to document your baby turning the big ONE, then be sure to head here so we can get the party planning started!Baby sitting on stool for Norma Fayak Photography Baby smiling and looking around by Norma Fayak Photography Baby looks happy by Norma Fayak Photography Flower outfit and flower in toe by Norma Fayak Photography Baby leaning on chair bu Norma Fayak Photography Baby leans against chair for Norma Fayak Photography Baby standing for Washington DC Baby Photographer Baby being helped to sit down by Washington DC Baby Photographer Baby being held for Washington DC Baby Photographer Big baby smiles by Washington DC Baby Photographer All smiles for baby by Washington DC Baby Photographer Baby sitting and grabbing toes for First Birthday Cake Smash Crawling baby for First Birthday Cake Smash Sitting baby smiling for First Birthday Cake Smash Smiles and grin from baby for First Birthday Cake Smash Sitting baby for First Birthday Cake Smash Baby yawning by Norma Fayak Photography Baby touching toes by Norma Fayak Photography Norma Fayak Photography Details of baby hair bow by Norma Fayak Photography Baby looking around for Norma Fayak Photography Baby looking up for Washington DC Baby Photographer Baby laying down and sitting while crying for Washington DC Baby Photographer Sitting baby crying by Washington DC Baby Photographer Smash cake sitting in high chair for Washington DC Baby Photographer Cake for baby cake smash by Washington DC Baby Photographer Baby reaching for cake forFirst Birthday Cake Smash Baby touching cake for First Birthday Cake Smash Little girl in high chair for First Birthday Cake Smash Little girl is holding high chair for First Birthday Cake Smash Little baby is sitting in high chair for First Birthday Cake Smash Baby licking finger for Norma Fayak Photography Baby sitting in high chair by Norma Fayak Photography Baby licking cake for First Birthday Cake Smash Baby in high chair eating cake for First Birthday Cake Smash Baby eating cake for First Birthday Cake Smash White cake by Norma Fayak Photography Baby girl standing and walking for Fayak Photography Baby girl standing for Norma Fayak Photography Baby girl sitting by cake for Norma Fayak Photography Baby girl sitting for Norma Fayak Photography Little one crying while crawling to cake for Washington DC Baby Photographer Little on reaching for cake by Washington DC Baby Photographer Little one sitting by cake for Washington DC Baby Photographer Little one being fed cake for Washington DC Baby Photographer Little one eating cake off toe for Washington DC Baby Photographer Baby licking toe with cake for First Birthday Cake Smash Baby putting cake in mouth for First Birthday Cake Smash Baby licking cake for First Birthday Cake Smash Baby enjoying cake for First Birthday Cake Smash Baby eating cake during First Birthday Cake Smash
