Cake Smash!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

The tradition of giving a child cake for the first time on their first birthday goes back many years. What a fun way to celebrate this special occasion is to have a private "Cake Smash" photo session!

Cake Smash Collage Photo

We will start out with some wonderful photos of the birthday girl or boy on location in their outfits. Once we are ready, the child gets to enjoy themselves eating and destroying their cake as I capture the fun!

This Cake Smash session Includes my time and talent of one hour, Giant Birthday Cup Cake (your color choice except red), high resolution digital files of 10-15 images presented in an online, password protected gallery, custom 8x10 Cake Smash Collage Photo (shown above); and a 5x7 heirloom desk portrait of your choice. Call 773-599-3686 or email: donna@donnabinbek.com for more information and reserve your spot today!
