Smash Cake & Milestone Sessions in Bend Oregon
Celebrate Times Biggest Little Moments
time goes by so fast, especially with kids. One day they’re just tiny babies, the next they're taking their first steps, and digging into that first birthday cake. These early days are so special, and they can feel like a blur sometimes. That’s why milestone and smash cake sessions are so important—they give you a way to hold onto those little moments.
Smash Cake Sessions
Your baby’s first birthday isn’t just another day, it’s a major milestone. What better way to celebrate this incredible journey than with a smash cake session? It’s more than just adorable photos; it’s about freezing this moment in time when they’re still small enough to fit in your arms, but big enough to start exploring what this big world has.
Moments like this won’t last forever, but the memories and the joy of this special day can. The messy, frosting-covered smiles, the curiosity in their eyes as they taste cake for the first time—those are moments you’ll want to relive again and again.
Milestone Sessions - Capturing every step along the way
Milestone sessions capture the big and small moments in your child’s journey, from their first smile and sitting up at 6 months to heading off to their first day of school. Whether it's crawling, taking those first wobbly steps, or celebrating a new birthday, these are moments you’ll treasure forever.
We’ll create a fun and relaxed session that lets your child’s personality shine, no matter what stage they’re at—from playful toddlers to curious preschoolers ready for their next adventure.
Kayla is sweet, patient, and very professional. She made the whole process seamless from start to finish. She had everything beautifully prepared for our arrival, photos were edited and delivered quickly, and they turned out amazing!

Why These Moments Matter
The first year of your baby’s life is a journey unlike any other. It’s filled with sleepless nights, endless giggles, first cuddles, and a love deeper than you ever imagined. But these precious moments go too fast and before you know it, your tiny newborn is walking, talking, and growing into the next stage of life.
These photos aren’t just about capturing a cute image. They’re about holding on to the feeling of your baby’s first year, preserving the memories you love every time you look back on them. A smash cake session or a milestone photoshoot gives you a way to remember the laughter, the curiosity, and the wonder of your baby’s earliest days.
Let’s make sure those moments don’t slip away. Let’s create memories you can hold onto forever.
Kayla was amazing and patient with our family of 4 with 2 under 1. She handled the ups and downs of toddlers and babies so well.

We have used Kaylas services on a couple occasions now. The first one being our son's smash cake session she was patient with our kid who of course did NOT want to smash the cake lol. Then our family photos which were postponed at least once due to weather and Kayla was so accommodating. We like her and hope to keep her around for such special occasions. Thank you Kayla!!!
