Cake Smash questions & Answers

When should I book?

For the best Cake Smash photography results, consider reaching out as early as you can. We can either book your babies cake smash photoshoot for their actual birthday or 2 weeks prior so that you have the images in time for their birthday. 

What if my baby is poorly on the day?

Please let me know as soon as possible if you don’t think baby will be well enough for their cake smash photoshoot. We can postpone their birthday photoshoot for another day.

Can we choose any theme we like?

Crafting your unique Cake smash photography session revolves entirely around you and your baby, ensuring a tailored experience. Whether you have a specific idea in mind or just a rough idea, kindly let me know at your earliest convenience. Should you find yourself without a particular vision, rest assured, we can discuss the options in a consultation. New themes require a huge amount of time to organise so please give me as much planning time as possible. 

Can we bring our own cake?

Our cakes are professionally made Vegan and nut free just in case of un-realised allergies. Our cake designer also ensures that the cake design matches the theme of the photoshoot perfectly so you don’t need to worry about it.

Who should I bring?

Although referred to as ‘Cake Smash photography,’ our goal extends beyond just capturing the birthday element; we aim to update your family portraits and capture some lovely individual baby portraits too. These photographs transcend the present moment, serving as cherished memories for years to come. Embrace the inclusion of siblings, aunts, grandparents, and even your canine companion! Everyone loves to get involved and enjoy the Cake smash along with your baby.

What should I bring?

Prepare spare clothing for all participants, considering that newborn baby photography sessions can be a bit messy. While the focus of the mess is ideally limited to the babies’ needs, accidents can happen. Pack your regular baby outing essentials, though rest assured, I have duplicates of most necessities in case anything is overlooked. Feel free to bring along any special items that hold significance for you and your family, such as cherished teddy bears or beloved blankets. Your unique touches contribute to the personal and heartfelt nature of the images we’ll create together during the session.

How do we book?

To secure your session slot, I’ll send a 50% invoice for your chosen package. This needs to be paid as early as possible to hold your chosen date for you. The week before your Cake Smash photoshoot, the final  invoice will be issued, requiring payment before the session’s commencement. 2-6 weeks after your photoshoot, I’ll show you your gallery so you can pick your favourites and upgrade you package if you so choose. Our gallery viewing session encompasses not only image choices but also showcases wall art, frames, and other selections. All payments, including upgrades and products, occur through card transactions at this meeting.

Are you insured?

Certainly. My professional standing is fortified by comprehensive coverage through ‘Photoguard Insurance,’ assuring you of reliable protection. Certificates validating this insurance are accessible upon request upon booking your Cake Smash photoshoot. It is strongly advised to exercise caution and refrain from engaging with photographers lacking proper insurance coverage. The safeguarding of your experience, memories, and investment rests at the core of my practice. This commitment to professionalism and security underscores my dedication to providing you with a trustworthy and secure photographic experience.

Are you Qualified?

Absolutely, my professional background boasts 4 years of accredited photography qualifications, further fortified by specialised training in posing techniques and safety protocols within the realm of newborn baby photography. This comprehensive education equips me with the expertise needed to artfully capture these precious moments while prioritising the well-being and comfort of your little one. This commitment to both technical excellence and safety underscores my dedication to delivering a photography experience that is both skilful and secure, ensuring your treasured memories are impeccably preserved.
