Celebrate your little one's big day with a Cake Smash Birthday Photoshoot that's as fun and unique as they are! These sessions are all about capturing the joy, curiosity, and pure delight of your child's first encounter with a cake. It's a messy, magical moment that you'll want to remember forever.
My Cake Smash sessions are designed to be a playful adventure, set in a relaxed, cosy space filled with props and decorations tailored to your theme and preferences.
We'll start with some classic portraits to capture those sweet smiles and giggles before the main event. Then, it's time for the cake! Watch as your little one explores the textures, tastes, and fun of their very own birthday cake. The laughter, the mess, and the candid expressions are all part of the experience, and I’ll be there to capture every precious moment.
After the cake smash, we can clean up and capture some more adorable shots with a splash session, adding even more fun to the day. These photoshoots are not just about the images; they're about creating a memorable experience for you and your child.

We had a newborn photoshoot with Lottie and the experience was wonderful from start to finish! We felt so comfortable at the shoot, the natural informal style was exactly what we wanted and the pictures are beautiful. So many small thoughtful details-and a super quick turnaround making sure we had a sneak peek at the pictures before her Christmas break.

Our newborn photoshoot with Lottie was fantastic from start to finish! Her communication was clear and friendly prior to and following the appointment.
Lottie’s approach is both laid back and efficient. Her studio is beautiful, warm and welcoming. I had so much fun capturing our images.

We have done a few different sessions with Lottie now and they have all been great! It’s always so fun and relaxed. The photos are always exactly what we hoped for so I’m sure we’ll be back again! Would 100% recommend.

Such a lovely morning and experience with Lottie. Our little one was a little grizzly that morning and she was so patient with us and helped capture some beautiful moments. My husband was so sceptical about a photoshoot but he now wants to do one every year! We’re over the moon with our pictures!
