St. Cloud, MN Cake Smash Photographer | Elayne’s Floral Cake Smash Session

When it comes to little girls, we think blossoms and birthdays go hand in hand! It was so fun to design Elayne’s floral cake smash session to celebrate her first birthday. And even more fun to watch her enjoy it!

We got some adorable one year baby portraits of this sweetie to start off our session. We had set up the studio with tons of pretty pink and white flowers, plus twinkle lights for that extra bit of sparkle that every girl needs on her birthday! Elayne did a great job and gave us the cutest smiles.

But her smiles got even bigger when we brought out the cake! She loved it, and alternated between big smiles and intense concentration. Hey, decorating your toes with frosting takes a lot of focus!

We got her all cleaned up in the bubble bath later—and polished her string of pearls at the same time.

Happy first birthday, Elayne! We had a fantastic time doing this floral cake smash session with you!

Winter ONEderland Cake Smash | Chanhassen, MN Photo Studio

Happy birthday, baby girl! Aaira was such a doll and we had a blast doing her winter ONEderland cake smash together! Mom is an influencer in Minneapolis and wanted to do an extra special birthday cake smash for her little nugget. (For mom’s blog post on how to plan a cake smash, click here.)

Of course, your cake smash experience will vary depending on which photographer you choose. At Tiny Hearts Studio, we want everything to be as fun and hassle-free as possible. That’s why we provide everything you’ll need, from backdrops and props to the cake itself. (A professionally decorated cake is included with our session fee and delivered directly to our Chanhassen, MN photo studio to ensure food safety.) All you have to bring is the birthday boy or girl and their super cute outfit!

All our birthday photo sessions are completely customized, and we build our sets based on whatever direction the parents give us. For Aaira’s one year celebration, mom wanted a winter ONEderland cake smash. So we set up the studio with snowflakes, snowy owls, and a kid-sized forest. Plus lots of pink and sparkles, of course!

Aaira loved her cake and dug right in! It doesn’t get much better than frosting on baby cheeks, does it?

Chanhassen, MN Cake Smash Photographer | {Diesel turns 1 year} | Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star Theme

We’ve had the pleasure of watching Diesel grow since his newborn session. His mom said she wanted to incorporate the moon and stars, but wasn’t sure what that would look like. We had this giant moon prop in the studio we thought would be perfect and added some balloons to the set to give it that festive, birthday feel!

Our preferred bakery nailed the cake based on the ideas I sent her! Diesel wasn’t sure what to think of his cake but his uncertainty made for some adorable shots! Twinkle, twinkle little star was the inspiration to the theme. He is certainly loved to the moon and back.

He loved our boho setup; he was curious about the plants and had fun climbing on props and playing with the leaves on the ground. We thought the set was perfect to dress-up his 1 year shirt! Happy birthday Diesel; we still can’t believe you are 1 year old already. Thank you for visiting our studio throughout the year and I suppose we will see you for some Santa photos again next month!
