Tips for Choosing the Perfect Theme for Your Cake Smash Session
Planning a cake smash session for your baby’s first birthday is an exciting experience, and choosing the perfect theme is one of the best parts! At Stacey Hansen Photography, we’ve worked with families all over Logan, Cache Valley, and Northern Utah to create custom setups that reflect their baby’s unique personality. Choosing a Cake Smash Theme
Here are some tips to help you choose the perfect theme for your cake smash session:
- Consider Your Baby’s Personality: Think about what makes your little one smile. Do they have a favorite toy, animal, or color? Incorporating something they love will make the session even more special.
- Seasonal Themes: If your baby’s birthday falls in winter, a Winter Wonderland theme can be magical. Spring and summer birthdays are perfect for garden or tropical themes, while fall lends itself to warm, cozy setups.
- Classic vs. Unique: You can’t go wrong with timeless themes like “Under the Sea” or “Princess Party,” but if you want to stand out, think outside the box! We’ve done everything from retro diner setups to superhero-themed smashes.
- Match Your Party: If you’re throwing a birthday party, consider matching the cake smash theme to the party decor. It’ll create a cohesive look for photos and memories.
Our studio is equipped with a variety of props, backdrops, and accessories to bring your vision to life. We’re also happy to collaborate with you to source unique items or create a one-of-a-kind setup. Whether you want something bright and colorful or muted and minimalist, we’ve got you covered.
