The History of the Cake Smash! In modern-day Photography

The History of the Cake Smash! In modern-day Photography

History of the Cake Smash from a NJ Photographer

Since I am the biggest history nerd on the planet, yup, I totally am. I decided to write a little  piece on the history of the 1st birthday cake smash! I'm a huge South Jersey history buff, but why not include some photography history? I'm sure a lot of you will ask this... but where in the hay did this cake smash tradition come from? It seems to have had a BIG, I mean ENORMOUS, following within the last 6 or so years.

Defining your photography style... What's it going to be?

I love the summer and spring and the colors of the lush greens, blooming flowers and trees.... the long sunny days! The pastels and lots and lots of color! I love sunlight! This is my style. Bright, vibrant and colorful!Let me tell you how long it has taken me to get to where I currently am... I can't tell you how hard it is to be a photographer... It really truly is! I had NO CLUE what I was in for. None, whatsoever. I knew editing was involved. I knew you needed to know your camera settings and how to work in certain scenarios... and I knew poses.. but I have learned a lot since them!Within the last few months, I have truly tried to define MY STYLE. It took a ton of practice and hard work. I live and breathe photography. It's really sad. I know.On a typical day.. say I don't have clients... I will probably go out and shoot for an hour, I usually edit for 1-2 hours on old photographs to brush up on skills and keep them fresh, and then I top the night off with about an hour of learning from the greats by watching videos... and/or reading... that's a regular day. Now, when it is busy, like now... I may spend up to 3-4 hours editing a night... with about an hour of education... Still. Not to mention, back and forth communication with clients. Scheduling session days and times.
