Cake Smash Photographer Norwich: Timeless, Natural, Fun.
Capture a special birthday with a cake smash photography session
With a little bit of gentle encouragement, babies get stuck into their cake, whether that is eating it, poking it, or mushing. It really is a memorable way to mark a birthday.
To avoid overwhelm, we treat it like a messy play, babies explore the cake and we don’t rush.
The whole session is baby-led, stopping for cuddles when needed. Siblings and parents can help (Most Dads love to ‘help’ eat the cake)
A typical cake smash session is sectioned into these parts;
- Family portraits first
- Some of the birthday baby (non-cakey)
- The cake smash part
- End with bubble bath time

Cake Smash Photoshoots with Jess – The Details
A cake smash starts off with a standard portrait shoot, with both classic and relaxed baby images followed by timeless family /sibling images. We use props such some free-standing letters and wooden toys. These props are simple and neutral in colour. This part of the shoot lasts around 30-40 minutes allowing for outfit changes.
You can then bring out the cake (I can guide you on who to book (Vanilla Cloud Bakery.) The cake smashing part of the shoot can last from 10-30 minutes as babies vary widely in their reactions. Some love it and get straight into smashing and pulling it apart, others need to be shown what to do and need a helping hand. There are no expectations other than to capture your baby as they are. We end the shoot with a little bathtub and bubble set up, this is a firm favourite with babies!
please avoid chocolate cakes and ones with big sweets on them.

“Jess was absolutely fantastic. Loved every minute of our photo session today. She made us all feel very relaxed. She is amazing at how she works with newborns and toddlers and how she gets the photos just right. I would highly recommend Jess. 10 out of 10”
