Celebrating Milestones with a Sweet Touch A child's first birthday is a significant milestone, and what better way to celebrate it than with a cake smash photo session? The concept is simple yet incredibly fun: a little one is presented with a cake and encouraged to explore it with their hands, feet, and sometimes even their face. As the baby dives into the cake, Mascha, your photographer, captures every moment, resulting in priceless and candid images of pure joy and excitement. Do not be surprised if baby doesn’t want to do anything with the cake. It’s quite common. It is more common than th ..read more

Why book a photographer with a client closet Of course, it is important to be in the trend and know what type of dresses and colors are popular in the maternity world nowadays, but wouldn’t it be ideal to hire a photographer that is in the loop of maternity fashion already and has their own client closet?

These sweet little families came to me with a unique twist—would I be willing to photograph a set of one-year old cousins to celebrate their big 1st birthday?  And of course I said yes!  This would be especially fun since both sets of parents wanted to “pull out all the stops” & create a once-in-a lifetime event.  We started the day with outdoor shots of the combined families.  Since both babies were in such a good mood the opportunity to pose each of them outdoors was a natural next step.  I especially love the luxurious texture of Aieesha’s dress as it plays soft ..read more

Let me introduce you to the sweetest family I’ve had the pleasure to meet.  Jiya called me with exciting plans for her son Shivay’s birthday cake smash.  Part of their extended family would be coming to Houston from India for the big day so mom wanted the first birthday photo session to be extra special.  Jiya had a Mickey Mouse theme in mind for “Shivie” (as they like to call him) & wanted photos both in studio & outdoors.  We started the day with some amazing shots of the parents, grandparents & baby in a wooded park nearby.  As Shivie was super cooperat ..read more

Out of all my sessions I look forward to newborns the most! To the not-so-creative eye it looks like all they do is eat, sleep & poop…so not true! Their little personalities are already at work to create the most amazing (and enjoyable) photos that you’ll cherish forever.

Once I begin to read the character then it’s time to select the props. And that’s when the fun begins! In-home posed newborn photo session in Houston (Sugar L ..read more
