The sky is the limit with Cake Smash Themes!  Fruit Smash, Strawberry Smash, and Watermelon, Valentines, Garden, Farmer’s Market, etc.  The sky is the limit. 

ONE IS FUN!! First Birthday sessions are SO much fun. Babies have so much personality at this age and I just love capturing their silliness as well as their guarded and intrigued expressions. I recommend doing a cake smash session between 10 months and 13 months of age.  Let me know if you have a particular theme or color scheme in mind and I can help you design a custom fun set for your session.  I have many banners, tissue poms poms, and props we can us to decorate your set.

If you prefer not to do a cake smash or it is not possible due to an allergy, we can still do a fun one year portrait session or you can use fruit or an allergy free cake. 

Contact me today for more info.

Do you offer a “Baby Plan” or a “Grow with Me” plan?

Yes! When you book your newborn session with me, as well as a 6 month/sitter session, you will receive a discount off your One Year/Cake Smash sessions. Contact me here for details. 

Here is what some past clients are saying…

I booked Christine for my sons 1st birthday cake smash based on a recommendation from a friend. Days after the session after seeing a teaser, I immediately booked my sons Christmas photos. She just has a way with him and her photos bring out and capture his personality so well. She will be our family photographer for years to come. I am so glad I found her!!  ~Stephanie 

Loved working with Christine. She is the best Long Island cake smash photographer around! She took the cutest pics of my 1 year old who was a Valentine’s day baby. She took the theme and ran with it. Very accommodating and detailed.  ~Sandra G.

Christine Melissa photographed my daughter’s cake smash and it was such a fun experience.  She helped me style the set to my daughter’s birthday colors and it turned out beautiful. She even edited a few photos before the party so I could display them and everyone loved them. She was so sweet and patient with my little girl and I can’t wait till our next session with her. ~ Ellen J.
