First Birthday Fun: From Fancy Dress to Cake Smash | Fort Worth, TX

Celebrating a first birthday is such a milestone, and it’s even more special when it’s a CMP newborn returning for their big day! This session was full of sweetness, personality, and a lot of fun as we captured both elegant and playful moments.

We started with fancy dress photos, showcasing this little one in a beautiful outfit perfect for timeless, classic portraits. These images highlight the milestone and provide parents with keepsakes that are elegant and full of charm. From the gentle smiles to the curious glances, every shot captured the joy of turning one.

After the fancy portraits, it was time to get a little messy and playful with a cake smash! Swapping the dress for overalls was the perfect transition for this fun, hands-on part of the session. The cake smash is always a favorite — it’s the moment where little personalities shine, creativity and curiosity take over, and laughter fills the studio. Watching baby dive into the cake and enjoy every bite made for some of the cutest, most candid photos of the day.
