smash the cake | Dallas, TX Children's Photographer

This precious girl is about to turn 1......


And you can't turn 1 without without having a smash the cake first! It's a right of passage!

Prior to getting wonderfully messy, I was able to capture some cute moments between brother and sister. He is the most amazing big brother ever! He was so involved during his sister's shoot. He did everything he could to make her smile. It was adorable!

And who could resist photographing this face? Complete sweetness.

She's turning 1 so she had to smash the cake!!

This family is beautiful! I had a blast with them. We found some unique places for this shoot and it made for amazing pictures. I tried to only pull out my favorites from this session but there are soooo many. Birthday girl was in a great mood so mom and dad were too (we all know how that goes). It was super hot out, but you would never know with all of these smiles. I am so thrilled with how great these pictures came out!

This natural frame was begging for a picture.

So I never pose my clients... except for this one picture. It always looks awesome and different with every family.

Speechless.....

I told you.... a beautiful family.

She wanted nothing to do with sitting up for this shot. She must have known that her rear end made for a great picture too.

An urban twist on the "walking away" idea.

And the SMASHING begins.......

This session ended with the birthday girl getting a bath in the park's fountain. We figured no one was going to arrest us with the birthday girl there. Those were some great pictures too. Smashing the Cake sessions are a blast at any age.... no need to stop after the 1st year. Keep it up, just have more napkins ready.
