I had such a blast being the MN cake smash photographer for this handsome little man’s first birthday! Luka was such an easygoing baby, and the most adorable little birthday boy—I gushed over his curls the entire session.

I’m also totally jealous of this piano prop that mom and dad brought from home—I might just have to go out and buy something like it for my St. Cloud, MN photography studio! Dad is the musician of the family and actually has a recording studio at their house, which is so cool! We all thought Luka looked like a little Bruno Mars. :)

Mom requested no other props aside from the piano, so we kept things pretty minimalist. She liked the simple, clean look, which I also love! It made the photos from this first birthday photography session so timeless. I’m confident these photos will never go out of style!

Luka didn’t seem too hungry during the cake smash photography portion of our time together, but he was very excited about his bubble bath! There’s nothing like suds for good clean fun!

As a MN cake smash photographer, I love helping little ones and their families celebrate that first big milestone! If you’re interested in a first birthday photo shoot for your baby, get in touch and let’s start planning!
