Toddler Session Tips From a Mom Who Gets It

  • Weekday sessions = calmer studio. That’s when I photograph most toddlers.

  • Session time is the “ideal window.” If your toddler is thriving, we move fast and get a ton.

  • Breaks are normal. Snacks, cuddles, and quick resets don’t count against you.

  • Variety over repeats. I shoot a lot so you can choose the images you actually love.

  • Real talk: out of 100 photos, some will be blurred, some repetitive, and a few will be pure gold. That’s toddler life.

  • Outfit tip: choose comfortable, well-fitting outfits, and have them try it on days before.

  • Custom outfits: order early so they arrive on time.

  • Editing style: clean, true-to-color, timeless (not overly trendy).

FAQs

Why the First Year Matters?
The first year isn’t just a birthday, it’s a whole transformation.
  • Their personality starts showing up in the sweetest ways

  • These photos become part of your family story

  • One day you’ll look back and remember exactly how this season felt

If you’ve been thinking, “I need to do photos before they grow again”… you’re right.

Why Book a Cake Smash?

A cake smash is more than “messy photos.”

  • Real expressions and real personality

  • A fun way to celebrate turning one

  • Variety: clean portraits + cake smash reactions + optional splash images

  • Memories you can’t recreate later

Some toddlers dive in immediately. Some inspect the cake like it’s suspicious. Either way, it’s always worth it.
What theme should I choose?
Themes are always based on what parents want.

If you’re wanting timeless photos, I usually recommend:

  • clean white

  • soft cream

  • simple styling that keeps the focus on your child

If you want something colorful or themed, we can absolutely do that too. Just know custom items may require advance ordering—which is why booking around 6 weeks helps.
