Ever since I completed the shiplap wall in my studio, I’ve wanted to do this session. We are donut fanatics in this house and I love the donut wall decor that’s been trending at birthdays and weddings the last few years. As every mom had their own theme in mind for first birthday sessions it took me almost 3 years to find a family willing to try my idea out.
The set up was simple. I used wooden pegs to to hang the donuts on and stacked some on the side using my wooden boxes. A whole lot of sprinkles dumped on the ground added the extra color the setup was missing and made for perfectly safe to eat confetti!
Not every baby loves the cake portion of the cake smash but he DOVE right into the donuts with both hands. Eagerly trying out every flavor sitting in front of him. I loved his enthusiasm for the theme and I definitely plan to repeat it ASAP!
