Cake smashes, bath splashes and lots of fun in the studio. Kerrie is a Colchester cake smash photographer ready to celebrate!
How fast has that first year gone?! If you're already planning your baby's first birthday party don't forget to mark it with a first birthday photo shoot.
Not only do I offer cake smash photography sessions in my Colchester based studio but I also offer birthday sessions without the mess too!
Bring your baby along for a photoshoot where they can play with the studio toys, wear a special outfit and have lots of photos with parents too. After that we'll bring out the cake (real or wooden!) to commemorate their first big life milestone.
I keep my birthday sessions simplistic in my bright white studio with minimal props. I do have lots of tactile wooden toys, birthday crowns, flags and clothing you can use that suit my studio's styling perfectly.
As a cake smash photographer I wouldn't let you leave without cleaning up baby first! All cake smashes now include a bathtub splash session if for no other reason than to avoid baby travelling home very sticky!

Nope! Whilst fun they are messy! I have a lovely wooden cake we can use instead if you'd like to avoid any mess.
Cakes must be provided by parents/carers to ensure all allergies are catered to.
Absolutely! I encourage parents to have photos with their babies at all my sessions. Ensure you also dress in neutrals so you all coordinate and I can capture some lovely memories for you all.
For cake smashes a simple white vest is great. You can bring other outfits or use my studio wardrobe for photos before the mess. I always advise sticking to neutrals to match my studio style.

I have a gorgeous home photography studio in my garden in Manningtree, Essex. Its cosy, full of toys and ready to welcome you and your family along.
