One of the most exciting events for me to capture is a baby’s first birthday. This milestone is a big one and should be celebrated in a fun and memorable way. I love to celebrate a first birthday with a themed photo session. I can create a bespoke theme for your session but in this blog post, we’ll look at a range of fun themes to inspire you.
1. Disney Theme
A Disney-themed first birthday is a classic choice for parents who want to create a magical and whimsical celebration for their little one. You can choose a favourite Disney character, like Mickey Mouse or Winnie the Pooh, and incorporate that character into the photoshoot. For example, we can use Disney-themed props like ears, balloons, and toys, and decorate your cake with a character figurine or theme.
2. Car/Sports Theme
For parents who love cars, sports etc, a hobby-themed first birthday can be a fun and playful way to celebrate their baby’s milestone. You can choose a favourite car or sports team, and incorporate the colours or logo into the cakesmash photoshoot. You can also use themed props to create a cohesive look.
3. Teddy Bear Theme
A teddy-themed first birthday is a colourful and vibrant way to celebrate your baby’s special day. We can use lots of colourful balloons in your backdrop along with your child’s favourite teddies. We can also incorporate other props like my moon and stars to create a mystical and fun atmosphere. This is a definite favourite – it’s a classic one that won’t date.
4. Rainforest or Jungle Theme
A rainforest or jungle-themed first birthday is a great way to bring the wild outdoors to your baby’s celebration. We can use plants or animal print balloons for your backdrop and if you would like a cake, decorate it with animal figurines, patterns and greenery. We can also incorporate rainforest or jungle themed props like stuffed animals, binoculars, and hats to create a playful and adventurous atmosphere. Bring along your baby’s favourite stuffed animal to add extra personalisation to your shoot.
5. Garden or Woodland Boho Theme
A boho woodland or garden-themed first birthday is a beautiful and peaceful way to celebrate your baby’s milestone. We can use a woodland or floral-themed backdrop and decorate the cake with flowers, animals, your child’s name and greenery. We can also incorporate garden-themed props like watering cans, flowerpots, my fun wigwam and butterfly wings to create a dreamy and whimsical atmosphere.
A themed cake smash photoshoot is a fun and memorable way to celebrate your baby’s first birthday. There are a variety of creative ways to incorporate your special theme into the photoshoot and I love creating new and magical ideas. One thing is for sure, and that’s we’ll capture special moments that you and your family can cherish for years to come.
