Under the Sea Cake Smash | First Birthday Photoshoot in Canton, GA

This under the sea cake smash session in Canton, GA was packed with smiles, laughter, and so much personality! First Birthday Photoshoot in Canton GA are always a hit! The theme came straight from the heart—Mom shared a photo of her baby boy’s bedroom blanket, and that became the inspiration for everything.

Using the photo, I designed and hand-crafted all the props to match. From colorful seaweed to friendly ocean creatures, every detail brought his underwater world to life. The bold colors and playful setup created a fun space for this sweet redhead to explore.

As soon as we started, he was grinning from ear to ear. He loved every part of the session, especially when the cake came out. He dove right in, grabbing big handfuls and giggling as frosting covered his face. That moment was pure joy—and easily the highlight of the day.

After the smash, we moved on to the splash! Mom added the bath portion to her session, and it was the perfect ending. He splashed, played, and smiled the whole time. The water, bubbles, and sea-themed toys made it even more fun—and gave us more adorable shots to finish the session.

Every baby is different, which is why I love creating custom sets for each first birthday photoshoot. Whether your theme comes from a blanket, a toy, or a big idea, I’ll bring it to life with handmade details and a little creativity.

If you’re planning First Birthday Photoshoot in Canton GA, let’s make it unforgettable. Together, we’ll celebrate your baby’s big milestone with photos full of love, color, and fun.
