Cake Smash & Splash Sessions

Cake Smash Photographer in Yorkshire

Cake Smash Photoshoots Yorkshire | Skipton | Keighley | Ilkley | Leeds | Bradford

Calling all the birthday boys and girls!

Happy first birthday baby!

Cake Smash sessions are perfect for celebrating a first birthday, with fun… frosting… and beautiful photographs!

Your session starts with a few timeless portraits, followed by the smash – where we bring the cake in and let your little one dive into it – and finishing off with a ‘splash‘ – a clean up in a tub of bubbles!

We have lots of different colour schemes to suit your style and even some little outfits to choose from, if you’re not sure what to dress your baby in for their session.

My studio is in Steeton, West Yorkshire, and specialises in newborn and baby photography for your family.

HOW IT WORKS

Sarah Walton Photography – Your Cake Smash Photographer in Yorkshire

  • Book your Cake Smash & Splash Session by paying an £80 Session Fee – this secures your space in our diary. You can do this either by clicking on ‘BOOK NOW’ or by competing the contact form at the bottom of this page to get in touch with us
  • Once you have paid your Session Fee, we will be in touch to arrange your phone consultation; this is your opportunity to ask us any questions you may have and for us to go over the details of your session
  • We will recommend that we book your session date around 3 weeks before your little one’s birthday, so that you will have your digital images in time for the big day, or alternatively the session can take place on or near to your baby’s birthday if you prefer
  • You don’t need to decide which package you would like to purchase until your viewing and ordering appointment, which will be booked with you at the end of your session for around 2 weeks after your session

A DREAM WITH LITTLE ONES

What a fantastic day I had at the photo shoot, Sarah is a dream with little ones and puts everyone at ease. And the results!! They made me cry, what more can I say. Will definitely go back for some more photos in the future.

YOUR WALL ART

I offer a wide range of additional products to allow you to create bespoke wall art, so you can enjoy your stunning photographs every day. I firmly believe that you get the best out of your photographs when you print and display them, as you also then get to see and appreciate them. Why not add a piece of wall art onto your package to make the most of your beautiful images, something tangible to enjoy as a family for years to come.

ABSOLUTELY LOVE MY PICTURES

Oh my gosh, I absolutely love my pictures. Thank you so much Sarah!

 

YOUR QUESTIONS

When is it best to book the session?

Cake Smash & Splash Sessions are made for babies approaching or celebrating their first birthday. Your baby should be able to sit unaided for this type of session, due to the nature of the poses, so please bear this in mind.

When you enquire about booking your Cake Smash Session, I usually ask whether you would like your session to take place on the week of baby’s birthday, or whether you’d prefer to have your photos ready to view and share with friends and family in time for baby’s birthday. If it’s the latter, then I’ll suggest we book your Cake Smash & Splash session around 3 weeks prior to your baby’s birthday, to ensure we have time to book your viewing & ordering appointment before the all important date.

I recommend getting in touch at least 2 months prior to baby’s birthday, as I do get fully booked in advance.

What does a cake smash session include?

Cake Smash & Splash Sessions last around 1 to 1.5 hours in my studio and include a birthday-themed set up with matching decorations. I also have a small collection of outfits that you may wish to select from and use during your session.

We start the session with a few timeless & neutral portraits of your baby, followed by your baby tasting and smashing their cake and finishing with a splash in my little tub!

Your session fee does not include digital images, prints or products; these are selected at your viewing & ordering appointment 2 to 3 weeks after your session.

DO YOU PROVIDE THE CAKE?

Unfortunately I am not able to provide the cake for cake smash sessions, due to food hygiene guidelines. But don’t worry, I can recommend a brilliant local cake maker who makes beautiful cakes, just right for your session! Crumbs Cafe in Silsden has a 5 star hygiene rating, along with relevant food hygiene certificates and are only a 2 minute drive from my studio. Aimee who owns Crumbs Cafe would love to make your cake for your little ones special Birthday and you can contact her on 01535 959418 or through her Facebook page here: Crumbs Cafe

​Aimee and I have designed 3 different cakes for you to choose from for your session that will work perfectly for your baby’s smash. The choices are ‘the drip cake’, ‘the full buttercream’ and ‘the semi-naked’, all of which are a 6 inch round vanilla sponge cake and can be ordered in the colour scheme of your choice. Aimee’s cakes are priced from £30. Of course, if you would like something different than the recommended cakes, please fee free to discuss this with Aimee for a personalised quote. Please mention Sarah Walton Photography upon ordering your cake and place your order with at least 2 weeks notice wherever possible.
