Frequently Asked Questions

What should my baby wear for the cake smash?

Outfits that are simple and comfortable work best—think cute rompers, tutus, or shorts that allow your baby to move freely. Avoid busy patterns, as they can distract from the adorable mess and vibrant colours of the cake! We can also coordinate the outfit with the theme or colours of the session.

Frequently Asked Questions

What happens if my baby doesn’t want to smash the cake?

Every baby reacts differently, and that’s okay! If your little one isn’t into smashing the cake, we’ll gently encourage them with fun props or other activities to keep the session playful. We’ll still capture beautiful moments that reflect their personality!
