Because your baby won't be little for long
Adorable baby photography to document all the precious milestones in baby's first year
Baby's first year is magical, and it goes by much too quickly. The days of your baby learning to hold up their head, rolling over and sitting up are quickly surpassed as they take those precious first few steps into toddlerhood and beyond. My baby milestone photography sessions are designed to grow with your baby throughout their first year and capture every adorable detail along the way. You will surely cherish these photos long after the baby days are behind you.

Milestones for Baby Photography
Early Baby Milestone -
Tummy Time
3-5 Months
The first opportunity for a baby portrait session is between three to five months of age. I call this a tummy time session. We'll start by capturing images of your baby laying on their back and looking up at the camera. They may also do other cute things like sucking their thumb, grabbing their toes, and rolling over. Then we'll turn them on their belly for a little bit of tummy time if they'll allow it. Some babies will even hold their head up to look around and give us some adorable smiles!
Mid-Year Baby Milestone -
Sitting Up
6-9 Months
My favorite time to photograph babies is around the mid-year mark. This milestone session can be scheduled anytime between six to nine months, once baby can sit up independently. These are also commonly referred to as sitter sessions. Babies are usually very curious around this stage, not to mention very smiley! We'll get some adorable images of them sitting up and interacting. Some may even begin to crawl. I think it's a perfect time to get the best images of your baby!
One Year Milestone -
Baby's First Birthday
11-12 Months
The first birthday is the biggest baby milestone! This is when you will sit back and wonder where the year has gone and marvel at how quickly your baby has grown. I definitely recommend a photo session for your baby's first birthday. Some parents choose a cake smash, which is a photo shoot to document your baby's first taste of cake. Others opt to skip the cake and do a classic first birthday portrait session instead. The ideas are endless, and we will customize the perfect set just for you!
Simply Adorable
My style of Baby Photography
Babies are the cutest, and I love to create clean, classic portraits that capture their pure beauty and sweet expressions. I keep the backdrops uncomplicated and use a few simple, beautiful props to help bring out a polished and professional look. I keep a studio wardrobe stocked with adorable baby outfits and accessories that are uniquely handmade and oh-so-cute. You don’t need to worry about what to wear or buy a thing! My style of baby photography aims to capture the precious, fleeting moments of your little one before they aren’t little anymore.

Your Questions, Answered
Baby Photography FAQ's
WHEN SHOULD I SCHEDULE MY BABY PICTURES?
There is no wrong time to have your baby's portraits taken! I recommend at least one or two sessions during baby's first year. If you're unsure, I recommend a sitter session and a cake smash or first birthday session. This really allows us to document your little one at different stages and see how much they grow. You don't want to miss out on any of those precious moments!
WHAT SHOULD MY BABY WEAR FOR THEIR PHOTO SHOOT?
The right outfit can give your photos a special touch. I carry a darling studio wardrobe for babies in 6-18 month sizes. My outfits are handmade and absolutely unique; you won't find them in stores. For baby girls, I carry beautiful matching headbands as well. Dressing them up is easy and fun!
Where does my photo session take place?
All baby photo sessions take place at my portrait studio located in Randolph, NJ. We are easy to find on Google Maps.
Will I get Digital Files?
Absolutely! Every image in your order comes with the matching high resolution digital file with release. Digitals are delivered via a private online gallery.
DO YOU OFFER BABY PLANS?
Yes! We can bundle two or more sessions together to create the perfect "watch-me-grow" portrait plan for your baby. I recommend a sitter session combined with a first birthday session. Even better when bundled with a Newborn session as well!
