A beautiful outdoor cake smash at Reader Rock Garden in Calgary!
I have always wanted to do an outdoor cake smash and finally got the chance this summer! It was a great experience for everyone and would definitely do it again.
Outdoor photo sessions offers a lot of opportunities to capture posed and candid photos and kids have fun running around, chasing bubbles, throwing rocks in the river and playing with whatever is available in the area.
Outdoor sessions are magical and great for small children. Here are some pros and cons to outdoor photo sessions:
These adorable new parents and their little baby girl came to see me on her 8th day. Ideally newborn sessions are done when the baby is between 7-14 days old so this was great timing.
What a cute little cake smasher! He was not a huge fan of the cake and that does happen sometimes. It seems strange but it is not necessary for them to love eating the cake to get great photos. Some photographers do not even use a real cake during cake smashes!
What to do if your baby isn’t into the cake? There are a few things to keep in mind and a few ways I work around this.
Our little man is 6 years old!
Now that he is older it is harder to convince Xandre to participate in a photo shoot. Believe it or not age 2 was actually easier to photograph!
One thing Xandre and I have always done is photo shoots. When he was a baby I photographed everything he did of course lol. When we moved into our current home and I set up my studio he was right there with me, sitting on the back backdrop saying “be your model mommy”? Xandre really wanted to do a glitter photo shoot. I think he saw something on Pinterest one day when I was scrolling through there looking for ideas and he did not forget that girl throwing glitter!
