Newborn Session

up to one month old

 

A photoshoot designed to capture your baby’s first days of life—those tiny toes, sleepy stretches, and delicate features that change so quickly. Typically held within the first two weeks after birth, these sessions focus on the pure, quiet beauty of your newborn, often using cozy blankets, and natural tones. The environment is calm and soothing, allowing plenty of time for feeding, cuddles, and breaks.

Tummy Time session

2 to 5 months

 

A tummy time photography session is a fun and adorable way to capture your baby as they grow stronger and more curious during the early months. Typically held around 3 to 5 months old, when babies can lift their heads and push up on their arms, these sessions showcase those sweet expressions, wide-eyed wonder, and first signs of personality. With soft blankets, simple props, and lots of giggles, tummy time sessions highlight this exciting stage of development. It’s the perfect way to document your baby’s growth between newborn and sitting milestones—preserving those fleeting moments of strength, discovery, and pure cuteness.

 

6-9 months

 

A sitter session is a delightful milestone photo shoot that takes place when your baby can sit up independently, usually between 6 to 9 months old. At this stage, babies are full of personality—smiling, laughing, and engaging with the world around them. A sitter session captures these joyful expressions, chubby cheeks, and curious glances in a relaxed, playful setting.  It’s the perfect opportunity to preserve this sweet in-between stage, before they start crawling or walking, and create timeless images full of personality and wonder.

A first birthday photography session is a special way to celebrate your baby’s incredible journey through their first year. This milestone shoot captures the joy, excitement, and personality that have blossomed over the past twelve months. Whether it’s a playful cake smash or a sweet portrait session, these photos reflect your baby’s unique charm, from their first toothless grin to those adorable, unsteady steps. The session often includes fun props, colorful themes, or family moments, making it a perfect way to preserve the magic of the first year. It’s a timeless keepsake that highlights the love and growth of your little one.

9-11 months

 

A baby stander session captures the exciting moment when your little one begins to pull themselves up and stand, usually between 9 to 12 months old. This milestone is full of determination, curiosity, and often a bit of wobbly excitement! The session focuses on your baby’s growing confidence as they explore their newfound ability, with adorable expressions of wonder and pride. Simple, natural settings and minimal props allow the spotlight to be on their strength and personality. These sessions create timeless images of a pivotal stage in your baby’s first year, showcasing the joy and progress before they take their first steps.
