The Sweet Life – 4 (Cupcake Smash Edition)

So Julz and I had great plans to take beautiful photos of pretty little cupcakes.

Well, we tried. But we were doomed. It was 38 degrees (Celsius!!) in Melbourne that day, the cupcakes were not packed well by the shop lady and we rushed too quickly to get back to the studio.

When we unpacked said deletable sweets, they were smooshed against each other and not separated at all – very very messy.

So, what to do? We took some shots from certain angles to try to avoid the messy parts, but then we decided – let’s smash them on camera.

So here are the before shots:

And here’s what we did! I’ve deliberately edited these shots to be bright white, almost too white, to kind of explode the fun that we had doing this. It was ridiculous and hilarious!

      Hahaha! It was a mess. Julz managed to contain most of hers in her hand (and her shirt lol) but I crumbled mine and it went everywhere! But what I could taste was delicious.

    Oh I just love these shots! Am slightly sad about the loss of cake, but I guess you have to make sacrifices for art ๐Ÿ™‚

    Great shots and the clean up (licking fingers, crumbs, cake, etc) must have been a blast ๐Ÿ™‚
