Smash Cake

Smash Cake Photographer in San Diego. Personalized Fisrt Birthday Photo Sessions.

Hi. I am Daniela Larsen.

Mom of a 10 year old obsessed with chocolate, mermaids (Sereias) and the beach! After years studying design & photography at San Diego State University I was excited to start Sereia Photography in 2010.

Since then, I’ve spent almost a decade photographing growing families, expectant mothers, and adorable children reaching every possible milestone.

Photography has become my joy and my passion in life. I feel honored to create beautiful portraiture for local families and families who come to San Diego to celebrate special moments!

What Clients Say?

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!! I cannot express enough how much of an amazing experience we had. Daniela is simply awesome! She is professional, attentive, kind and so very easy to work with. I was convinced that we wouldn’t get many good photos of our sons 1st birthday cake smash. He definitely gave everyone a run for their money that day! Daniela pulled it off though. She was so patient and sweet. She captured THE BEST photos!

Kenya D.

We used Daniela for our son's first birthday / cake smash photo shoot at the beach, and she was so patient in talking through our vision / sending pictures of props we could use, and helping us create an adorable 1st birthday beach scene. She is extremely flexible and accommodating in scheduling appointments, working with kids during the shoot to get that "perfect shot," and helping create the memories and the photos for a lifetime. Thanks, Daniela!
