Lumberjack Themed Cake Smash Session
This sweet boy came to visit me in my Attleboro studio from Assonet for his one year cake-smash session and he was SO much fun! He had the best eyes and cutest red hair. His mom and dad also stepped in from of the camera for a family portrait as well before he dived right into his cake.
Together his Mom and I planned his theme around cute animals, outdoorsy and "rustic." This super fun lumberjack themed set ended up being PERFECT. I incorporated some small cute animals in the set (can you find them?!) and a fun little camper that I happened to find at Hobby Lobby. You should have seen my reaction when I found that little metal camper, right there in the aisle. Like I had made a touchdown and was doing my touchdown dance in the end-zone! haha!
I LOVE planning cake-smash sessions. They are so much fun and unique to each baby. And you never know how baby is going to react. Are they going to devour it or daintily taste? I also love collaborating with local bakery Sweet Stuff Bake Shop that always is able to make my cake-smash sessions look like artwork! How awesome is this cake that ties all of the Lumberjack theme session together.
I always start my cake smash sessions with some portraits without the cake. We get some great smiles as baby is getting used to the studio.
Then we bring on the cake!!! Baby has been prepped at home with some homework. Before they come to the studio for their cake smash session, they with have already tried a cupcake with some sticky frosting. Sticky frosting means YUM! We also plan the session time around baby's sleep schedule as well to make sure they are comfortable and happy.
