WHAT TO EXPECT AT THE SESSION?
Whether you’re joining me for a birthday photoshoot or cake smash session for your growing child—every session is designed to be calm, playful, and full of genuine moments.
These sessions are always baby- or child-led, meaning we go at your little one’s pace. There’s no pressure to sit still or smile on cue—we keep things relaxed and fun so their personality can shine through naturally. Expect lots of playing, giggles, exploring, and cuddles!
We’ll start with some simple milestone portraits—whether your little one is sitting confidently, crawling, or running around the studio! For birthday and cake smash sessions, we ease into the celebration with clean, classic portraits before bringing out the cake for the messy, joyful fun.
My setup is natural and timeless, with soft tones and simple backdrops that let your child be the focus. I’ll gently guide you throughout and give prompts when needed, but there’s no strict posing—just authentic, beautiful moments.
The studio is based within my home in Manvers, Rotherham, and is designed to feel welcoming and homely—perfect for helping little ones (and grown-ups!) feel comfortable from the moment you walk in.
DO WE NEED TO BRING ANYTHING?
There’s no need to worry about bringing too much with you. I provide a selection of simple toys, as well as some adorable nappy covers and a little tutu for your baby to wear during the session. If you have a special outfit you’d like them to be photographed in, feel free to bring that along too.
Please note that I don’t supply the cake for cake smash sessions due to allergy considerations, so you’ll need to bring one with you on the day. Simple, soft cakes with buttercream work best for those messy, joyful moments!
