THE FIRST BIRTHDAY EXPERIENCE

One whole year of you.

Somehow, your tiny newborn is turning one. 
The smiles, the funny little expressions, the wobbly steps, the personality that's suddenly all their own. 

This session celebrates all of it, with beautiful portraits, a little cake, and plenty of personality along the way.

IT'S ABOUT SO MUCH MORE

more than cake...

Some babies dive straight in.
Some carefully poke one finger into the icing. 
Some barely touch the cake at all. 
And that's completely okay. 

I'm not here for a particular reaction. I'm photographing your little person exactly as they are at one, the expressions, curiosity, movement and all the little things that make them them!

What if my baby doesn’t smash the cake?

QUESTIONS PARENTS OFTEN ASK

Can parents and siblings be included?

Do I need to bring a cake?

What should my baby wear?

Completely okay. Some dive in and others are cautious. There’s no pressure to perform; we let them explore in their own way.

Absolutely. We’ll start with a few family photographs before turning the attention to your birthday baby.

Nope! Your cake is included. If there are allergies or dietary requirements, we’ll discuss the best option beforehand.

I have a First Birthday wardrobe in the studio, and I’ll also help with what the rest of the family should wear.
