Frequently Asked Questions

Do you provide the cake?
Yes! Cakes are included in all first birthday sessions if you choose to include one. The design of the cake is something that you can request in your questionnaire, otherwise I'll be in contact via email to see what you'd like.

Are family or sibling photos included in the session?
Absolutely! This is a big milestone for your baby, and I believe that it deserves to be celebrated with everyone he or she loves the most! Siblings and parents are more than welcome to be included in the session.

Do you offer themed sessions (Disney, characters, etc)?
I currently offer simple sessions that are congruent with what's pictured in my portfolio. All first birthday sessions are photographed on a white or cream backdrop with a cake (if you choose to include one) as well as multiple outfits. You are also more than welcome to bring any decorations you'd like to include in the session.

Do I need to bring outfits for the baby?
I have everything you could possibly need at the studio including a client closet of outfits, high end props, headbands, hats, accessories, and even the basics such as diapers, sterilized pacifiers, and a bottle warmer. Unless there's something specific you want to bring, all you need to bring is yourself and the baby!

Where is your studio located?
The address of my studio is 21 Elm St., East Aurora, NY 14052

What happens if my baby is fussy?
It's common for one year olds to have separation anxiety when their parent sets them down on a photo set and walks away. Snacks and distractions are my go-to, but if those aren't working, sometimes I will have a parent sit on the set with them for a few minutes to help them get used to the new environment.
