Cake smash photography in Manchester, Cheshire and beyond
Capturing babies is an amazing experience therefore baby photography is so special. It’s been a year of changes, sleepless nights and no doubt enough ups and downs to justify writing a book about it, but you are finally here! Your baby is now a year old and it’s time to celebrate! Being a cake smash photographer in Manchester is something amazing, letting me capture the milestones of your baby.
Cake smash photoshoot is fun, mess, and a nice memory of your baby’s first birthday. Your little one has changed and learned more in their first year than they will at any other time in their lives. They have an emerging personality, are taking their first steps and are exploring the world around them. My goal is to capture those precious details for you, so that you have them for a lifetime! Cakesmash photoshoot is done when your baby is approaching a milestone birthday.
Your little one will enjoy exploring the cake with their hands or a spoon. They can make as much or as little mess as they want to. After this, your baby can have a splash in some bubbles in my miniature bathtub – which makes for some fantastic images and lots of splashy fun! We finish off with a cuddle in a warm towel and lots of amazing memories! If you prefer to have a simpler session, without a cake, then we can celebrate your little one’s birthday with a simpler set-up, or with a fruit smash – anything you want!
Birthday portraits aren’t just for one year olds! If your child is heading to their second third or even 10th birthday, we can design something just for them that will be loads of fun and will create lots of memories!

Frequently asked questions
What are the cost of the photographer?
We offer a range of Wall arts with a great selection of frames, these can be purchased individually with digital images, or pert of my collections. Please click here to view our additional products.
What to expect?
Your children will love to look back on this amazing collection of images that document how they celebrated their birthday in style! Up to one hour session in the studio. The photo shoot is completely bespoke to your own design down to the very last detail. All decorations, outfits are included! You may bring your own outfit.
How long will a baby photography session last?
An older baby session will last only 1-2 hours in the studio with all outfits and props provided. I am completely baby-led: if baby is wide awake, I’ll capture that gorgeous eye contact and cute little first smiles; if they drop off to sleep, I’ll embrace that too and pose them like a newborn.
What clothes should i bring to the session?
Please contact me to talk about colour co-ordination.It is best to photograph your child with as little clothes on as possible so to not take away from them or the cake.
For boys simple colour co-coordinating shorts are best and for girls a little Tutu type skirt looks lovely. We do however have a range of suitable clothing that are available in the studio.
Can i have siblings on the images?
I am always happy to photograph siblings during my sitter session.
What will happen during a cake smash?
We will start with a few portrait images 1st before the cake comes out and everything gets messy. Please think about the clothes for this part carefully, no cartoon, logo or picture tops please. Call to chat if you would like some advice.
Bring some old clothes yourself as you may get messy! Some children need a little encouragement in breaking up the cake so its over to you to help them.
