Baby Milestones
Your baby will grow and change so quickly in their first year.
Many parents book their 3, 6, 9, and 12-milestone sessions at their newborn session proofing appointment. Booking ahead like this ensures that no milestone is missed while you’re busy caring for your little one through their first year. Scheduling baby photography sessions every three months allows us to photograph your child through tummy time, sitting, and standing development stages. On the day of your session, you wont need to bring anything other than items needed to care for your baby. I have lots of simple, little outfits and backdrops for styling baby photography. Baby milestone sessions do not include family poses. These are 30-minute sessions, designed to capture each stage of your babies growth from tummy time to sitting and standing. I’ve found that a short and sweet portrait session is much preferred by growing babies.
What Does a Baby Milestone Session Include?
YOUR EXPERIENCE
is so important to me!
01
Consult
First, schedule a phone call with me. This is your chance to have your questions answered, for me to get to know you a bit, and for us to begin gathering details for your session.
02
Prep
Together we’ll plan all of the details of your session. You’ll have my expert guidance for outfit choices, timing, and everything necessary to ensure a successful session.

Session
Your session will be short and sweet, at 30-minutes. We’ll photograph your baby in developmentally appropriate poses on 1 to 2 backdrops, depending entirely on their tolerance.
04
Viewing
About one week after your session we’ll meet in the studio to view your proofs. At this time, you will select your final print or digital products for purchase. I have an expertly curated collection of frames, wood prints, and album choices to compliment your baby milestone portraits.
05
Delivery
Heirloom print products and digital files may take up to eight weeks for final delivery. My partners an I strive to get them to you sooner, but we have quality production in mind.
What will it cost?
Each session is a customized experience for my clients.
There is a session retainer fee of $100 to hold your date on my schedule for milestone sessions. Printed art starts at $250. Your total investment will depend upon the final products that you wish to have created. Please schedule a consult with me and we’ll chat about your options!
