Why You Need to Book a Cake Smash & Splash Photoshoot for Your 1-Year-Old at Meadowside Studio!

Hey, parents! Got a little one who's about to hit that big milestone—their very first birthday? 🎉 We know it's an emotional rollercoaster—so much joy, a pinch of disbelief, and maybe a few tears as you wonder, "How did my baby grow up so fast?" But don’t worry, we’ve got the perfect way to celebrate and capture those precious moments forever: A Cake Smash & Splash Photoshoot at Meadowside Studio in Warrington!

So, what’s a Cake Smash & Splash, you ask? Well, it’s not just any photoshoot. It’s a full-blown party for your baby, where we capture their playful spirit as they smash, splash, and smile their way through three fun-filled stages. 🎂🛁

What Happens During a Cake Smash & Splash Session?

Let’s break it down for you:

1. Family & Sibling Portraits

We start by gathering everyone together for some stunning family shots. Yes, we’re talking about YOU getting in front of the camera (don't worry, you’ll look fabulous!) and including siblings too. It’s a great way to mark the moment with the whole family. These "clean" shots are done on our white cove backdrop, giving a modern and timeless look to your portraits.

Your little one will be dressed in an outfit from home—something cute, cozy, and totally them—to keep these memories classic.

2. Cake Smash Fun

Here comes the messy part (in the best way possible). Your little star gets to dig into a delicious, perfectly themed cake. They can squish it, smear it, taste it, or even sit on it—whatever they want! And don’t worry, we provide a cake that matches your chosen colour theme:

  • Baby Blue 💙

  • Jungle Green 🦁

  • Daisy Cream 🌼

  • Boho Neutral 🌾

  • Pastel Pink 🎀

We’ll also provide a super-cute themed outfit for your baby to wear during the cake smash. Whether your little one goes all in or just gingerly pokes at the cake, the expressions we capture will be priceless. Oh, and our cake is fully customizable to match one of our beautiful backdrops!

3. Splash Time in the Tub

After all that cake-smashing fun, it’s time for a cleanup—but make it adorable! We pop your baby in one of our vintage mini roll-top baths or a steel tub filled with bubbles and rubber ducks for the final photos. Whether they splash around like a fish or sit there surrounded by bubbles, you’ll be getting the cutest bath-time photos you’ll treasure forever.
