Elsie’s Sweet First Birthday and "Cake Smash!" Session in Florence, SC | Reflection Images by Tracy Rowell Photography Studio

Florence, SC Newborn Photographer
Celebrating a first birthday is always special, and Elsie’s milestone session was filled with love, laughter, and the sweetest little moments. Her family joined us at Reflection Images by Tracy Rowell in Florence, SC, for a cake smash and portraits that perfectly captured her joyful personality. With soft colors, playful props, and plenty of giggles, this first birthday session was a memory-making day to treasure forever.

A Birthday Worth Celebrating

From the moment Elsie arrived in her dainty white dress and oversized bows, it was clear this was going to be a session full of sweetness. Her family, who have become dear friends over the years, joined in for a few heartfelt portraits before the fun cake smash began. Every detail, from the pastel ribbons to the sprinkle-covered cake, was chosen to highlight her big day.

Studio Style and Special Details

The Reflection Images studio in Florence, SC, provided a bright and timeless backdrop for Elsie’s portraits. She looked precious in each outfit change, from her classic white dress to a playful floral romper with matching bows. We incorporated charming props like a vintage rocking horse, wicker baskets, and a soft pink rug to create variety and visual storytelling throughout the gallery.

The Cake Smash Fun

The highlight of the day was Elsie’s cake smash! Sitting proudly in her wooden highchair, she curiously poked at the frosting before diving into her sprinkle-covered cake. Her giggles, frosting-covered hands, and wide-eyed wonder were everything we love about documenting first birthday milestones. The setup included pastel ribbons, playful ONE letters, and of course, the star of the show – her birthday cake!

Memories to Treasure

First birthday sessions are more than just photographs – they are a celebration of love, growth, and family. Elsie’s milestone portraits reflect the joy of this season of life, and it was an honor to capture it all. These images will forever remind her family of the laughter and love that surrounded her on her very first birthday.
