NY Photographer – Thanksgiving Birthday Cake Smash Celebration

I love to see my Planet Photo families grow and change and I was thrilled to be part of Frankie’s birthday celebration session. Frankie’s birthday is close to Thanksgiving so that was an easy choice – we had a theme. The images would be made into his birthday invitation so we did the session a few weeks before his official birthday to give us time to create and send them.

The cake was one of my very favorites from this year. It was another spectacular creation from The Sweet Spot in New Milford, CT and they blew this one out of the water! Frankie loved the cake but he was also rather partial to the fresh picked apples from Averill Farm…… so we had an authentic fall day in Connecticut.

Frankie’s mom found his adorable outfit on etsy and I made up the banner to match the theme without ever taking the emphasis off the star of the show. Sometimes ‘less is more’ with themes and decorations, you never want to overpower the image with all the details, keep the focus on your child. I am always happy to advise on decoration and can give you links to some of my favorite etsy vendors.

Happy 1st Birthday Frankie!

Love, Janet xo
