Baby Girl’s First Birthday Photoshoot with Lenox

Your baby’s first birthday is a momentous occasion—one that deserves to be celebrated and remembered with beautiful, timeless portraits. My First Birthday and Cake Smash sessions are designed to capture your baby’s personality, emerging independence, and those last sweet moments of babyhood. This is done in a way that feels classic, sophisticated, and effortlessly elegant.

A Session Designed for Style and Simplicity

My first birthday photoshoots are intentional and playful. We document this milestone in a way that showcases your family’s personality and style. We begin the session with classic portraits of your baby in an outfit from our carefully curated studio wardrobe. For girls, a popular choice is a delicate dress or romper featuring tulle, sparkles, or sequins, adding just the right amount of celebration to their look. You’re also welcome to bring a special outfit from home for a personal touch. For boys, a charming neutral-toned romper or a simple yet timeless outfit creates an effortlessly stylish look.

Capturing Baby’s First-Year Milestones

At one year old, your baby is full of energy, curiosity, and delightful expressions. Whether they are standing independently, taking their first wobbly steps, or still happiest when crawling, we create an experience that encourages their natural movement and playfulness. My neutral, light, and airy set design ensures that your baby remains the star of every image, with a timeless aesthetic that will never go out of style.

Showcasing Those Adorable Baby Rolls

Before we move on to the cake smash, I will capture a few final images of your baby in a simple diaper cover. This sweet and minimalist look highlights all the cute little details you’ll want to remember—the chubby arms, dimpled knees, and soft baby rolls that define this fleeting stage. These images always become a client favorite, as they perfectly preserve the innocence and charm of babyhood.

A Sweet Finish: The Cake Smash

No first birthday session is complete without a little cake! We end with a beautifully simple cake smash, featuring a small, delicious cake topped with either fresh florals or fruit for an elegant touch. I opt for natural, understated decorations to complement our timeless aesthetic while still making the moment feel celebratory. Whether your baby dives in with both hands or curiously pokes at the frosting, I will capture the joy, curiosity, and fun of this special experience.

Artwork Designed for Your Home

After your session, I will guide you through selecting your favorite images to be transformed into custom artwork for your home. From heirloom albums to framed portraits, I will ensure your baby’s first birthday memories are preserved in a way that is both beautiful and meaningful.
