Celebrate Your Baby’s First Birthday with Timeless Portraits
In the blink of an eye, your tiny newborn has grown into a curious, giggling one-year-old. Their first birthday marks a huge milestone—not just for them, but for you. At Cloud 9 Studios in Wesley Chapel, we specialize in capturing this once-in-a-lifetime moment through heartfelt and magical first birthday portraits.
Why First Birthday Portraits Matter
Your baby’s first year is full of firsts—first steps, first giggles, and yes, their first taste of cake! These moments fly by, and before you know it, you’ll be wondering where the time went. Portraits from this milestone aren’t just cute—they become treasured memories that preserve your family’s love and growth.
I still remember my own daughter’s first birthday. Her wide eyes at the balloons, the cake on her fingers, and the way her giggle filled the room—it’s why I’m passionate about helping other moms celebrate this moment.
The Experience at Cloud 9 Studios
We’ve designed our First Birthday Portrait Experience to be joyful, stress-free, and all about you and your baby. From the moment you walk into the studio, we’ll guide you through every detail—outfits, sets, props, and even that all-important cake smash!
Our session options include:
- Simple sessions with classic styling
- Full celebrations with balloons, cake smashes, and multiple outfits
Whether you want timeless elegance or something playful and themed, we’ll make it happen.
Portraits That Grow With Your Family
These portraits aren’t meant to live on your phone. They’re meant to live in your home. We’ll help you choose artwork that fits your space and your story—whether it’s a wall collage, a handcrafted album, or a keepsake box your child will one day treasure.
Years from now, when you walk past your baby’s portrait, you won’t just see an image. You’ll feel the moment. You’ll remember the love, the laughter, and the magic of who they were at ONE.
Let’s Tell Your Baby’s Story
Your baby’s first birthday deserves to be remembered in the most meaningful way. At Cloud 9 Studios, we’re not just taking pictures—we’re telling your family’s story.

🎂 First Birthday Portraits – FAQ
We recommend booking your session when your baby is around 11 months old. This gives us time to create and deliver your portraits in time for their birthday party, invitations, or keepsakes. But don’t worry—we’ve photographed sessions right before or even after the big day too! The most important thing is to schedule around their nap time!!! A well rested baby is a happy baby!
We suggest 1–3 outfits: something timeless for the classic white scene, something fun for playing with the balloons, and one for the cake smash. We’ll help you plan everything ahead of time so your session feels smooth and stress-free. We also have some props and accessories in the studio to coordinate with your outfits and complete the look!
Absolutely! Our full “Funtabulous” sessions include custom styling with balloons, backgrounds, and themed set pieces. Let us know your vision and we’ll bring it to life.
Yes! This milestone is just as special for you. We’re happy to include a few portraits with parents and siblings at the beginning of the session. Just let us know during your planning call.
Funtabulous First Birthday Sessions usually run around an hour. We’ll go at your baby’s pace, with time for cuddles, snacks, and breaks if needed.
You’ll either stay right after your session or come back to the studio for a relaxed design consultation where we’ll view your portraits together and help you choose your favorites. Whether you want wall art, an album, or digital images, we’ll guide you through everything.
As part of your session fee we provide a 5″ round cake from Publix. However if your baby has special dietary needs or you have a custom cake design you have your heart set on, you can definitely bring your own cake!
Easy! Just click the Let’s Chat or Request a Session button on this page, and we’ll take care of the rest. We can’t wait to celebrate with you!
