Ezio | Wilmington NC Cake Smash Photographer

Ezio had the squishiest cheeks and most adorable smile! I was honored to capture this super sweet milestone moment for his family. Ezio showcased his personality, especially when it came to the cake!

We got some shots before the cake smash- just some simple photos in the most precious outfit. He was quite a mover, so getting these images was a workout, but definitely a reflection of this stage of his new toddlerhood! His mama requested a fishing-themed cake smash set and it turned out perfectly 🐟🎣

This was one of the best cake smashes ever! Sweet Benjamin’s mama requested a simple Mickey Mouse theme with blue/white accents. It turned out so adorable (those suspenders and ears 😍)and Benjamin definitely enjoyed his cake!

Layla | Wilmington Cake Smash Photographer

Layla was ALL about smashing her cake to celebrate turning one! Some babies are delicate while eating their cake, but others, like Layla, just go for it. She truly enjoyed herself and by the end of the session, there were just a few handfuls of cake leftover 😂

Her mama requested feminine aspects, such as white, cream, and pinks, as well as florals. Before the actual smashing of the cake, we took some quick portraits of the birthday girl. She is quite the beauty!

Annabelle is ONE | Wilmington NC Baby Photographer

My third baby turned one in May! Of course, I've been planning Annabelle's cake smash since she was barely even out of the newborn stage. I knew I wanted something feminine and decided on floral with a butterfly theme. The gorgeous paper flowers on the backdrop are from The Whimsical Petals on Etsy and the cake was made by One Belle Bakery in Wilmington (seriously beautiful AND so delicious!). 

She wasn't sure of the cake at first, but once she tasted it, she was hooked (some of the faces below are hilarious!). She was pretty dainty about it all, but she still got to take a fun bath at the end!
