Some families love the idea of choosing a cake smash theme for their little one’s first birthday, and others want something classic and theme-free. That is why more and more families are opting for outdoor cake smashes when the weather is nice to showcase their little one in nature without any props. That is exactly what Ravi’s family wanted for his first birthday portraits, so we combined his fall family photos with a cake smash at the park, and it was perfect!

Just look at the gorgeous and colorful leaves lining this path in Saratoga Spa State Park! It was perfect with the golden sunlight streaming in through the leaves, and I loved this spot for their portrait session!

For the most simple and classic cake smash look, nothing beats a white high chair and a simple cake! A fancy cake topper completes the look, and the focus really stays on the birthday boy!

This little guy really got into it, and he had a frosting beard in no time!
