Newborn
Your new baby will never be this little again. A newborn session captures the sleepy, cuddly phase of newborn life and is a wonderful way to document this life changing event for your family. I recommend contacting your photographer a few months before your due date. Your due date will be penciled in on the calendar and your session date will be finalized once baby has made their debut.
3-4 Months
In just a few short months, baby has completely changed. They are more awake, able to make eye contact, and will even smile at you. Baby's neck muscles have gotten stronger and as a result, this is a wonderful time to get a few pictures of baby's newest accomplishment, head control. If you're heading back to work soon, this is a wonderful time to get updated pictures of you and baby for your desk.
6-7 Months
Also known as "the Sitter Session," the half year session captures baby's first portraits sitting independently. I usually recommend scheduling this session closer to the 7 month mark to give baby's back and upper body muscles a little more time to develop. Pictures from this session are often full of smiles as babies this age love to laugh. They may even have a few teeth to show off.
1 year
You made it! Baby's first birthday is a wonderful time to celebrate with a photo session. Baby is standing either with support or independently. They are an expert crawler & may even be proudly taking their first steps. Some parents opt to add a cake at this session & some like a simple balloon. I love to grab a few pictures of just baby and mom at this session. This is a big milestone for both you and your baby!
