Cake Smash Photography in Cambridge & Huntingdon
Minimal & Elegant First Birthday Photography in cambridge and Huntingdon
Cake smash sessions are a beautiful way to celebrate your baby turning one while creating playful, personality-filled portraits in a clean and minimal setting.
Sessions usually begin with simple portraits focused on your baby’s expressions and natural personality before moving on to the cake smash itself. Every baby reacts differently — some dive straight in while others take a slower, more curious approach — which makes every session completely unique.
For babies who enjoy it, sessions can finish with a little splash bath, creating even more relaxed and playful photographs to end the experience.

Understanding the process
Minimal, playful and beautifully styled first birthday photography designed to celebrate your little one turning one.
Here’s a look at how the cake smash session experience unfolds from start to finish.
Once you get in touch, I’ll send over my session guide with all the information you need about the session experience, styling and collection options, along with details about how everything works from booking through to gallery delivery.
Before your session, we’ll discuss styling, colours, cake options and the overall look you’d like for the session to ensure everything feels cohesive and beautifully styled.
If there are any outfits or accessories you’d like to include, you’re very welcome to bring them along.
On the day of your session, simply arrive at the studio ready to enjoy the experience while I guide everything throughout the shoot.
Your cake smash session includes a beautifully styled setup, a professionally made cake and three parts to the session: simple portrait photographs, the cake smash itself and a final splash bath for playful clean-up images.
Once the portraits are finished, it’s time for the cake smash itself. Every baby reacts differently, which is what makes these sessions so fun and unique — from curious little touches to full cake-covered chaos.
Parents are always welcome to join for a few final family photographs during the session.

What my customers say
“The atmosphere at Gabriella’s studio was not just professional; it was heartwarmingly inviting. Her patience and genuine love for what she do made the entire session a seamless blend of fun and professionalism.
The final gallery left us in awe. It’s not just a collection of images; it’s a treasure trove of memories. Each photo tells a story, not just of our child’s first encounter with cake but of a day filled with love, laughter, and the magic of childhood.”
