But not to worry, our experienced photography team is ready to help you every step of the way!
Milestone: One Month Old
This session is all about baby’s connection with mama. It’s sleepy time and snuggles and baby kisses all day every day.
Wardrobe Inspiration: Consider bringing snuggly blankets, wraps, fitted hats, and/or booties. We do a lot of "naked baby" at this age. A plain long sleeve black or white shirt for mom and dad is recommended to assist in posing.
Milestone: Three Months Old
Documenting this season of life focuses on smiles and tummy time!
Wardrobe Inspiration: Lying on their back finding their toes make this a great time to enjoy baby’s perfect skin with colorful diaper covers, blankets & booties. Cute outfits look best when Mom or Dad are holding baby in the photograph.
Milestone: Six Months Old
At this portrait session, it’s all about letting your baby show off their skills in sitting unassisted, smiling all the way.
Wardrobe Inspiration: Bring lovies or stuffies that personalize the session and make it fun for your child to interact.
Milestone: Nine Months Old
This is when baby’s personality starts to shine even brighter! We love the grins and laughs and expressions that come at this age.
Wardrobe Inspiration: Include fun hats, and layered outfits with lots of color or solid white for striking images of your child while they interact and play on camera.
Milestone: One Year Old
Oh my goodness, your baby’s not a baby anymore! *cue happy tears*
Wardrobe Inspiration: Consider a cake smash as a fabulous way to celebrate, or bring other “party inspired” props such as balloons, banners, birthday crowns, etc.
We have photographed this sweet baby girl since she was a bump in her mama’s tummy, and getting to watch her grow has been seriously such a joy! We have photographed her family for the last decade (someone tell time to slow down) and to say we are excited to grow up with this sweetheart would be an understatement.
