First Birthday Digital Backdrops

Low, soft scenes for first birthdays and cake smash sessions. Each one has a wide, clear floor for a seated baby, and none of them has a number, so they work for any age.

What is in this collection

Scenes include a soft rainbow arch on a cream wall, a cake smash corner with a blush scalloped panel and an empty cake stand, a wild one boho hexagon with pampas, a little moon and stars celestial corner, garden bunting with a picnic lawn, and a woodland arch of moss, birch and toadstools. The pastel rainbow balloon ring and the dreamy cloud arch also suit first birthdays.

Tips for using these scenes

  • Shoot the baby low. These scenes are set for a seated child. Get your camera down to the baby's eye level and keep the floor line behind them visible.
  • Leave room for the cake. In the cake smash corner the cake goes beside the baby on the floor. Shoot the cake on a plain surface at the same angle and add it as its own layer.
  • Use soft, wide light. Babies move. A large soft light from the same side as the scene's light gives you sharp frames and an easy match.

Frequently asked questions

Do the first birthday scenes have a number 1?

No. None of our scenes contain numbers, letters or logos. That keeps them usable for second birthdays and half birthdays, and you can add a number in your editor if you want one.

Are the scenes set up for a seated baby?

Six of the eight are: the soft rainbow arch, the cake smash corner, the wild one boho hexagon, the moon and stars corner, the garden bunting picnic lawn and the woodland moss set have a clear floor for a baby sitting down. The pastel rainbow balloon ring and the dreamy cloud arch also work with a standing toddler or a parent.

Are they safe to use for real cake smash sessions?

The scenes are digital files only. The baby is photographed in your own studio setup and placed into the scene afterwards, so there is no prop to climb on. See how to use digital backdrops.
