First Birthday Cake Smash with Big Boy, M! ----- Kara Baker Massachusetts Family Portrait Photographer

I had the pleasure of shooting baby (or maybe I should say "big boy"), M's first birthday cake smash! A cake smash is seemingly becoming more and more common. It is a chance for the one year old to enjoy their very own birthday cake; to smash, shmear, eat, dance in, sit on-- whatever! People were starting to get two cakes for the first birthday party; one for the guests to eat, and one for the birthday boy or girl. Now, it is even common for a third cake to be purchased simply for the "smash the cake" session with your photographer. It's a lot of fun and you really do end up with some cute photos!

Here are some one year portraits and some cake smash photos from M's birthday session!
