Apparently baby “cake smash” photoshoots are all the rage these days, at least with the cool kids.  This cool kid is no exception.  I have been photographing Malique since he was negative three months old and just a bump in his mommy’s belly, and I was honoured to be asked to shoot his 1 year birthday party cake smash and dress up.

I’ll be honest, it didn’t go 100% as planned, but he gave us a good hour of patience, and while he didn’t technically do a lot of smashing (more like distracted poking), the end result I think is worth it.

Happy birthday little guy!  I’ll see you in a year!
