for the little in between moments
Tummy Time
Around 3 months old they start smiling and giggling in response to their parents interactions. To get the most variety out of this milestone you want to make sure they can lift their heads while laying on their tummy and look forward when propped up on their elbows.
Sitters
By 6 or 7 months old they are often sitting on their own. Sometimes they’ll need a little extra support to stay upright, but they’re learning to balance themselves. I like to capture them exploring their toes, those big smiles, and we revisit tummy time, which they are now superstars at. That’s a fun comparison from where they were last visit to where they are now.
Explorers
Your little 9 month old is probably an accomplished sitter, and could possibly be crawling away pretty quickly. They are just learning to pull themselves up on furniture and stand with support. Here we will do supported standing poses and sitting positions.

6 Month Photographer | Demian
My goodness. My day today was made brighter by getting to be Demian's 6 month photographer. He is so stinking cute you guys, I can't handle it. Of course, why do kids choose photo day to not nap? Or to get up way earlier, or pop a tooth. It's always bad timing. I feel...

Kenzie and her eyebrows came to visit the studio for her Fraser sitter session. Oh my gosh this young lady had some expressions! I remember when my son was younger his eyebrows were amazing and so expressive. They were weirdly long and bent in like 2 or 3 places when...

Mt Clemens Sitter Session | Emma
Sweet little Emma was back at the studio today for her Mt Clemens sitter session. She brought a few more smiles this time than at her 3 month session. But she still made me work for them. Emma was so curious about her surroundings, she spent her time with me figuring...
Milestone Photographer | Anderson
