Frequently Asked Questions
Cake Smash / 1st Birthday in Murfreesboro
What parks in Murfreesboro do you use for cake smash sessions?
Old Fort Park is our main option — easy access, green pathways, and good afternoon light. Cannonsburgh Village works for families who want more rustic backgrounds with the gristmill and wooden bridges. Both require a commercial permit from Murfreesboro Parks and Rec, which we arrange in advance.
Can you do the session at my home in Murfreesboro?
Yes. Home sessions work very well if you have a room or patio with enough natural light. What we need is a clear area of roughly 2 square meters with good light coming in. We arrive 15 minutes early to organize the space and assess the light before we start.
Where do I buy the smash cake in Murfreesboro?
Pastelería Lupita makes custom smash cakes with one week of advance notice. Julia's Homestyle Bakery also has options. The ideal size is a single-serve cake — you do not need a large one. When you order, tell the baker the base color of your session so the cake complements the photos.
What clothing do you recommend for the cake smash session?
For formal portraits, clean clothes and a special outfit if the family has one. After the smash, the baby will be covered in cake — we recommend bringing a change of clean clothes for the baby and for any family member who wants to be close during the smash. Solid, neutral colors work better than heavily patterned prints.
