The 'Mini Shoot'.


This shoot can be for your little one alone or can also include parents and/or siblings. The shoot involves a short shoot (around 10- 15 mins), allowing us to get to know your little one and to allow everyone to relax and have some fun.

Parents and/or siblings can be in these pictures if you wish or, you may like to include some favorite baby toys or sentimental items from your child's 1st year.


This shoot is a fantastic way to get your little one relaxed and comfortable in the studio. It also gives our photographer and your little one the opportunity to get to know each other and allows for a more relaxed and fun Cake Smash.



The Mini Baker


The 'Mini Baker' shoot is included in our Silver and Gold packages.


For the 'Mini Baker' shoot we will set the scene for your little one with a mixing bowl filled with flour, a set of scales a cookbook, and a load of sprinkles all over the floor. To ensure maximum mess we will then bring out the cream and syrup.


With mixing spoons in hand your little one will be encouraged to make as much mess as possible.


For this shoot, we will provide the chef's outfit and all the props required to create the scene. You are welcome to bring anything extra you would like included in the pictures however please be aware that they will get messy.



The Cake Smash.


This is the main event, the part where the cake comes out and your little one destroys it. For this shoot you will need to provide the cake, this ensures against any possible allergies that your little one may have.


Again, we will set the scene with your choice of backdrop to match your chosen theme. You will need to provide the outfit for this shoot but, please be advised it may be 'ruined' (it can make a great keepsake though) due to the amount of mess and your choice of cake.




The Bath Shoot.


For this shoot, we bring out our old Tin Bath, fill it with warm bubbly water, and let your little one splash around as much as they like whilst getting squeaky clean again.



Viewing your pictures.


After your shoot, your images will be edited by our professional in-house editing team. You will then be invited back to our viewing room and be able to see all your beautiful images on our big screen. Our team will then run through all of our options and offers and allow you to decide on what images you'd like and in what size or format. We pride ourselves in a no-pressure approach which is why there is no minimum order.
