My recent client wanted a colorful themed set for his beautiful daughter’s first birthday. Dad sent me a reference image of the dinosaur theme which he likes. I decided that I would make dino cutouts and colorful balloons to use as the backdrop.
When the family arrived, Dad was pretty worried as Nina didn’t take her usual morning nap. As Nina wasn’t cranky, we decided to go ahead with her portrait first.


After her portrait was done, Nina started to rub her eyes a lot, showing signs of sleepiness, so guess what? We let her nap for half an hour! Just because I want happy, smiling pictures during her cake smash session.
For the cake smash, Nina wore a dino outfit, matching perfectly with the theme! She was a pleasure to photograph and was happy as could be. She didn’t quite smash the cake, but we still managed to get some awesome shots of her. I really love her gallery of images. Here are a few of my favorites from her cake smash session.
