Instagram have spoken and said they would like my next blog post to be about my cake smash photoshoots! Which is actually perfect timing as I was just about to release a update to say I now have three options and will be renaming to Birthday photoshoots!

I promise I've been trying to write this blog a few times now but a very small little person (Jackson) is dinosaur obsessed and every 5 minutes would like me to pretend T-rex is eating a tree! haha So here we are back to a nursery day.... hence the blog!

If your little one is not keen on cake then the other options may be more suitable for them, they can be for any age, doesn't just have to be for a first birthday.

First up is the....

1. Cake Smash and Splash

This photoshoot starts with your little one in smart clothes, a pretty dress for the girls and a shirt and shorts/trousers for the boys. These images are fresh and timeless, its great to capture some pictures before the cake is smashed!

For the Cake smash your little one can stay in the same outfit or change outfits, tutu's are popular for the girls and shorts and braces are popular for the boys!

All of my cakes are made by Angelic cupcakes who are also based in Amersham and make the yummiest cakes!

To wash away all of the cake your little one can splash around in this cute bath tub and then its back into my favourite outfit the white baby vest for some simple but gorgeous images!!

2. Balloon Photoshoot

The balloon photoshoot has the same set up as the cake smash but the cake is replaced with a very large confetti balloon. So if your little one is not keen on cake or getting messy this would be the perfect alternative.

3. Outdoor Balloon Photoshoot

They said snow is on its way but I can't help but get excited for all the spring and summer photoshoots coming up! The final option is to take your birthday shoot outside, this can be cake or balloon or both! This shoot is perfect if your little one loves the outdoors and is a little explorer!
