For smash the cake photo shoots, I also provided different outfits in my studio, like the one Milian is wearing in the photos. That way, you don't have to spend extra money on outfits that your child may never wear again.

Of course I wanted that with great pleasure, but unfortunately, preeclampsia & premature birth of her baby daughter put a stop to that. So on January 1, Eline was born a tiny girl. After a long period, Steffie and Eline were finally released from the hospital and were able to start their lives at home. Since the maternity shoot could not take place, we had converted it to a newborn photo shoot. So I was incredibly pleased to welcome the brand new little
