Sitter, One Year and Cake Smash sessions
Many families want to capture milestones in their baby’s first year such as 100 day, sitter, one year or cake smash sessions. Let’s capture beautiful photos so that you will always remember the first year of your baby’s life.
The First-Year Sessions
Newborn sessions are very popular and can be found here - https://www.markyourmoments.ca/newbornsessions-packages-and-rates . Following those images, 100-day-old and Sitter Sessions are very popular. Sitter Sessions are captured when your baby can sit on their own and are typically captured between 6-8 months old. You can book your session in that time frame however, we will change the date based on how your baby is developing.
For One-Year Sessions - A vanilla cake with buttercream icing is included in your session. We will confirm the decore to match your backdrop!
If you’d prefer to not have a buttercream cake, we offer a Fruit Cake. There is an additional charge of $25 for this cake.
All sessions include a creative backdrop which we will create based on your wishes. The backdrops may consist of a balloon garland, 4 helium balloons, false flowers, garlands, banners, cake stands that match your backdrop, the letters “ONE”, outfits and many other prop options you can select from. There is always a post-bubble bath session after the cake smash/one-year portraits,
A non-refundable deposit of $250 is required to book a session. The final amount is due the day of your sitter or one-year session. Your digital images will be over to you within a week to two weeks of your session date and final edits will be over to you in 10 days (based on the editing requirements).
These are studio sessions however if you’d like an in-home session, please add $275 to any of the sessions below. 100 day, sitter, one year and more; there are so many photography options to capture the first everything!
