About Milestone Sessions

Milestones sessions can happen at any time during your baby’s first year. You can come in monthly or at certain milestones. We can do a custom session or you can come in for one of my monthly milestone mini sessions which usually happen on a weekday once per month.

Most common milestones to capture outside of the newborn session are:

Smiles - Around 3 months is a sweet milestone where your baby’s personality is really starting to peek through. They are starting to gain more head control and can start to give us beautiful smiles and interactions

Sitting - Around 6-8 months your baby may be sitting to sit up on their own. It’s great time to capture their new skill and how proud they often are of their new skills! They are also holding and interacting with toys more at this age, so bring along those favorite lovies!

Crawling/Pulling up - Around 9-11 months your baby may be starting to crawl and be able to pull them up on things. They are getting more and more curious and their personalities are really coming through. It’s fun to capture all that comes with this stage!

First birthday - The one year milestone is the particularly special as it marks your baby’s first year (and of you surviving the first year, hoorah!!) Often people do a family session at this point, or we can keep the focus on your little one year old. Cake smashes are also very popular if you’d like to watch your baby dig into a yummy treat and get messy!

Whatever stage you decide to capture is great! I can’t wait to watch your little one grow!

Celebrate your baby!

Baby’s first year. It’s the most your baby will ever grow and change in such a short amount of time. They go from being tiny little bundles cradling in your arms, to walking, talking bundles of personality. It’s magical to watch your child grow in this first year and I truly love capturing all the big milestones for you to remember and your child to someday look back on.
