baby’s first year really flies by

As a milestone photographer, I love watching your kids grow up before my eyes. To make the most of these photographs, I suggest booking your sessions around these classic milestones:

3-4 months

This is a fun age where they are smiling and giggling, but to get the most variety out of this milestone you want to make sure they can lift their heads to look forward when propped up on their elbows

6-7 months

To get the most variety here you want them sitting on their own, but not quite crawling away.  This session I capture those sitting moments (even if it’s with help), playing with toes, big smiles, and tummy time, which they are not superstars at, and might be pushing up in preparation to crawl.

8-9 months

They’re accomplished crawlers and just able to pull themselves up on furniture and stand with support  Here we will do supported standing poses and sitting positions.
