Cake Smash Photography | First Birthday Photos | Best family Photographer | Painesville, Ohio

Mentor, Ohio CAKE SMASH PHOTOGRAPHER

Can we talk about how adorable Lily is with her special birthday cake?! Cake smash first birthday sessions are one of my absolute favorite studio sessions to photograph. The cake smash sessions can be used alone for their first birthday or it’s included in my bump to baby package! That’s right with my bump to baby package you’ll receive maternity, newborn and a milestone session that can be used any time during the baby’s first year! The majority like the smash cake birthday!

WHAT’S INCLUDED IN A STUDIO CAKE SMASH SESSION

When you book a full 1 hour first birthday shoot I like to work with the family and customize the shoots! As a given I always provide the balloons, props and outfits. I have many different backgrounds than can be used for either boy or girl! I’ve had so many fun and unique sessions over the years.

WHEN TO BOOK?

My calendar does fill up far in advance and I recommend getting on my schedule at least 2 months in advance. Especially, if you are wanting the images to be done prior to their birthday party. My editing turnaround is usually around 2-3weeks.

Contact me today, and we’ll discuss the perfect smash cake session for your little one!

January Studio Newborn Photoshoot | Cleveland's Best Photographer | Newborn Portraits

It is always the biggest compliment when I see parents come in for photos with their 2nd and 3rd child. It is such an honor to watch their families grow over the years. This sweet session was the family’s 2nd child and was such a dream at his first newborn shoot.

Meet Baby Grayson!

When should newborn pictures take place? I recommend anytime from day 5 to day 15 of life.

Does it have to be in that time frame? This is a strong recommendation if you would like the pictures to look like the ones you’ve seen on my website. Within that time frame the babies are usually sleepier and easier to wrap for the photos. Once they reach the 1 month age, they have grown and changed so much!

What newborn packages do you offer? I offer both a the full 2 hour shoot which includes family, newborn and sibling pictures. I also offer a petite newborn shoot for 1 hour. These photos are just of the baby alone.

What’s included with the newborn packages? The packages include the shooting time, full access to all high end wraps, bonnets and props. It also includes a minimum of 40 digital images. I usually send anywhere fro 40-50 images. You’ll also receive 20% off my professional printing services.

When should you book a Newborn Session? I recommend researching and booking your photographer during your second trimester. I know it’s early but my calendar does fill up and you can’t wait until the baby is born. It will be hard to find an open photographer.

Ready to book you session? Please reach out and I’d be happy to offer a phone consultation for your next Newborn Shoot.

Thank you,

Danelle xoxo

Skip the Traditional: Why Lifestyle Newborn Sessions are Popular!

I am so excited to share my new Newborn Studio look that I now offer for families wanting Newborn Sessions. Many families are already overwhelmed once coming home from the hospital. The last thing they may want to do is prepare their home for professional photos. That is why I have now created a little photo space that looks cozy and is more lifestyle like. I still offer the traditional backdrop posing for families who want it!

I always give each family the choice of lifestyle or traditional newborn portraits or even a mixture of both! That can be done in my studio. My new set up features a neutral boho style bed and chair that works for both baby and families!

For more information regarding my newborn packages pricing please reach out.

I would love to chat about it XOXO
