One year old baby celebrating a cake smash session eating a cake

Client review - Nicole Ogertschnig:

“Olivia is an awesome photographer. Olivia is passionate and I can tell she really loves her job. I am not a creative person but when I tell her about ideas for my kids smash cake photos she goes above and beyond. Olivia has taken photos of my family for the last 6 years. She has done both of my boys 1 year old smash cake photos, yearly Christmas photos, and newborn photos. Olivia Grace Photography is a 5 out of 5!”

“We had the most wonderful experience with Olivia for our newborn photos, and we cannot recommend her enough! She showed so much grace, patience, and love with our sweet baby, and it was overwhelmingly obvious how much she loves what she does. She is truly an expert at her craft! Olivia took her time with our baby and made sure we never felt rushed, which made the entire experience so relaxed and special for our family. When our pictures came back in a timely manner, we were absolutely blown away by how beautiful they were! She captured such precious moments that we will cherish forever.

“I truly cannot put into words how much Olivia and her beautiful photography mean to our family. She has been there to capture some of the most precious and meaningful moments of my life, from my pregnancy to every special milestone throughout my daughter’s first year. Looking back at the photographs she has taken brings me so much joy and emotion, and I will forever be grateful for the memories she has preserved for us. There is something incredibly special about trusting someone to capture the moments you wish you could hold onto forever. Babies grow, seasons change, and life moves so quickly, but Olivia has given me the most beautiful gift: the ability to look back and relive those moments through her photographs. Her talent is extraordinary. She has such an incredible eye for beauty, light, and the little details that make each photograph feel like a work of art. But what truly sets Olivia apart is the love, patience, and care she brings to her work. She doesn’t just photograph our family; she tells our story. I have continued to return to Olivia for all of our important milestones because I simply cannot imagine trusting anyone else with these memories. Every gallery is more beautiful than I could have imagined, and somehow she always manages to capture the emotion of each season of our lives so perfectly. As a mother, there are very few things I treasure more than photographs of my daughter. Knowing that I will always have these beautiful images of her earliest days, her tiny features, and all the moments that passed far too quickly means more to me than I can ever express. Olivia, thank you for giving our family something truly priceless. Your photographs will be cherished not just by me, but by my daughter and, I hope, generations to come. If you are looking for a photographer to capture the most important moments of your life, I cannot recommend Olivia enough. She is an extraordinary artist, and I feel so fortunate that she has been part of our family’s story. ❤️”

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before booking your One year cake smash session. If you don't see your answer below, just reach out.

What happens during a One year cake smash session, and is it fun for my baby?

A cake smash session is designed to feel like playtime rather than a formal photo shoot, letting your baby dig into a custom cake and enjoy themselves in front of the camera. Most sessions end with a fun after-cake bath, which is photographed too and documents all the giggles and mess.

Is the cake and set included in a cake smash session?

Yes, the cake, custom set, and props are all included at no extra cost, so nothing needs to be brought or arranged. Sets are designed around your answers to a style questionnaire, or you can choose from a list of pre-designed "Dream Themes" setups.

What outfits are provided for a cake smash session?

For the portrait portion, a client closet stocked with outfits for boys and girls is available at no extra cost. For the cake smash itself, parents are asked to bring their own outfit, with styling help available to pick the right one.

How far in advance should I book a cake smash session?

Cake smash sessions should be booked 6-12 weeks before your requested date, since first-birthday timing is fixed and can't be pushed back. Booking early also ensures your preferred cake color, theme, and set design can be prepared in time.
