The Rundown
- Inquire with the month(s) you're interested in + package you're interested in! - pro tip it's best to reach out 2 -3 months before their first birthday! That way we can get you scheduled beforehand.
- I contact you via email to discuss + find exactly what you're looking for-
you choose your package, date + location.
- I send over the $50 non-refundable retainer invoice + contract over digitally
- both can be paid and signed electronically.
- Retainer Paid + Contract Signed
Once retainer + contract are taken care of - we're good to go!
- I reach out about a week before your scheduled session date to confirm details.
- Today's the day! Session day!
The remaining balance is due the morning of your session.
- Our session has concluded, now what?
Within 1 - 2 weeks, you will receive a proofing gallery in your email. In there you will favorite the set amount of photos you'd wish to receive, based on your chosen package.
- You've chosen your images and sent your favorites list back to me.
Within 2 -3 weeks, you will receive the final gallery with all of the images you had chosen, fully retouched.
Tips + Tricks
- It is best to schedule your cake smash session at least 1 month before your kiddo's birthday
- if you want the images for their birthday party invites, even sooner.
- It is best to arrive at your session earlier rather than later.
Give yourself some extra time for those crazy kiddos, traffic, traveling through parks, etc.
- Bring some snacks!
If your little one likes a fruit snack here and there - bring some snacks for a rest/ snack break!
- I will provide the cake stand, buckets + baskets. I also provide a complimentary balloon garland for all my cake smash sessions. We'll discuss the theme/ colors you're going for - and I'll make one just for your session!
- The client is responsible for the smash cake, outfit(s) - extra props such as banners, characters, decor, etc.
- Cake Smash sessions can be scheduled in studio or on location. Please let me know which you would prefer when inquiring.
