Carson came back for his aviator cake smash session, after meeting me at his nine-month milestone. He brought the same dimple grins that make you swoon. Retro Bakery made the perfect little airplane smash cake to match my retro aviator backdrop, which I topped with a wooden plane. I finished the set with a cloud...
It is always so good to see my little newborn clients back for their first birthday. I captured Charlie’s newborn portraits last Fall, and she came back a year later for a Cactus cake smash session. Her cake was artfully created by Retro Bakery to match my saguaro cactus backdrop. Charlie picked off the buttercream...
I first met Elliot and Emerson in November at their family’s holiday mini-session, and was thrilled to hear from their mom again for cake smash photography. She told me that she hoped to keep everything simple and baby-focused. That’s my favorite kind of cake smash. Sometimes we parents get carried away with themes and ideas,...
Clark turned one in October, and we celebrated with a cactus themed cake smash session. Retro Bakery baked and decorated a gorgeous cake with succulent details to coordinate with the cactus backdrop. Clark’s cake smash photos turned out adorably, right down to the rolls peaking out of his suspenders. Mom and brother joined Clark for...
Little Kennedy celebrated her first birthday with me in the studio with cake smash photos. Like a typical one-year-old, Kennedy was a busy little girl and crawled all over our set up, investigating textures and sounds.

Gavin and his family worked with me previously this Fall for family photos, and I was thrilled to hear from them again for his birthday.

We have been keeping this elf-tastic session a secret for a while now, and I’m SO thrilled to share Dornzelda’s Buddy the Elf themed spaghetti smash. Dornzelda is a December baby. Her newborn photos were Christmas themed, and her mother wanted to stay with the holiday theme. Dornzelda’s father, Richard, is stationed abroad and is...
Like many first-birthday girls, Logan arrived a little bit sleepy from a car nap and unsure of her surroundings. After a few minutes though, she warmed right up and was showing all of her best tricks. Did you know this little cutie can spin around like a puppy dog chasing his tail? Well, she can....
Two of the greatest things about being a baby photographer is watching a child grow through her first year, and getting to know the beautiful people who surround her. From newborn to cake smash photos, I really get to know the parents and sometimes grandparents of the little wonders that I work with. It is my honor...
Little Reid and his family were an absolute blast to photograph during their family and cake smash session. Ashley and Eric are such a fun couple, and they really know how to make their little guy smile. What I really loved about this session was the genuine smiles and interactions I was able to capture...
