CAKE SMASH FAQs
When should I book a cake smash session?
Booking early is recommended to secure a suitable date for your baby’s session. Especially if you like the session to be done at your baby's actual Birth date. Some prefer to families schedule their session 2–3 weeks before the birthday, so the photos are ready in time for the celebration.
Is the cake included?
Yes. We work with a talented cake designer who prepares cakes specially made for our little clients, with less sugar and baby-friendly ingredients.
We will discuss design, flavours and dietary requirements during the planning of your session.
How long does a cake smash session take?
Cake smash sessions usually take between one and two hours, allowing time for portraits, the cake smash itself, and the bath session that follows.
You can find more helpful information on our Session FAQs page.
