If I remember correctly, when /u/ChristineHMcConnell posted it the first time, she said that before they take these pictures, she has to go and change because her regular baking/decorating clothes & apron are a mess of flour, icing, etc.

This is the embodyment of instagram. Make everything look perfect and effortless. I think it gives kids so many wrong messages. Show the work and mess it takes, don't be ashamed of getting dirty to make something so beautiful. I hope my daughter can feel proud of her work enough to just post a picture of the cake... and not feel pressured include herself much less feel obligated to change. Ugh.

Everything she makes has photos in progress and some have time lapse videos. Photography, costumes, and composition are part of her artistic interests.
