What a fantastic cake smash this is! So many expressions are shown by Freya as she celebrated her 1st birthday with a smash the cake photography session, captured by Shellie Wall Photography, based in Norfolk, UK. Freya was presented with the most gorgeous giant cupcake to enjoy and a wooden spoon to help with the smashing! The sweet paper circle garland matches the cake perfectly and Freya’s polka dot outfit. You get to see a great range of emotions from wonder, to laughter and to tears, which I am sure were quickly soothed.
What are the ingredients for a creating a great cake smash:
- Take one super cute baby celebrating her/his 1st birthday
- Add a giant sugary wonderland cupcake
- Add simple & lovely accessories
- Don’t forget a pinch of good lighting
- Mix in with a talented baby photographer

With thanks to Freya!
I think the smash cake setting is perfect for the 1st birthday photography shoots. The photos usually come out looking so creative and really capture the personality of the 1 year old. I will definitely be having one.
