Start with one palette
Two or three tones is plenty. Ivory with a single warm accent reads far more elegantly than a rainbow of colour.
The cake is the accent
A simple naked cake with soft buttercream photographs beautifully and, more importantly, is safe and enjoyable for your little one.
Restraint in props
A linen backdrop, a wooden stool and a few dried grasses. Everything else competes with your child's face.
Portraits before the celebration
We always photograph clean portraits first, so you have both the composed frames and the joyful mess.
