Milestone Session

Many families dread the moment their babies are no longer little because they admire that innocence and affection that babies bring into their life. As a parent, you've likely come to realize that your baby is growing so fast and while there are plenty of milestones to document, there is that ache in your heart which wishes time would slow down just a little bit.

Watching these babies grow into toddlers is timeless and in between all the baby chaos are the precious, gentle moments - how your baby smiles at you and, how they cautiously look up with those big eyes for support - this is what my milestone session is all about.

Each session centres on all the interesting new things your baby can do, as they grow and change from newborns (7-14 days old) to toddlers (at three months, six months, nine months and then one year). My goal is to capture all the excitement and wonder of your baby's growth in priceless photos that can be pulled out whenever you need to reminisce, or are having a moment of baby nostalgia.

Whichever session you choose to schedule; each one is assured to be candid and tell the true story of your little one's first year. Check out my milestone sessions info below to know when to book a one.

3 months

At three months, your baby is full of gummy smiles that are completely picture perfect! They know who you are! I remember looking at my baby some mornings, and I could never get enough of his squishy goodness and adorable smiles anytime he saw my face. This session is very laid back, focused on capturing your baby's gorgeous smiley face as well as the variety of emotional expressions your baby is now capable of making.

When is the right time to schedule a three months session? The best answer is: anytime your baby frequently smiles and giggles when they see you.

6 months

Look at all what your little one has achieved in six months! So much has occurred in the last six months, you've watched your baby grow from a newborn to a little sitter.

Now capable of sitting without support, cute little expressions emerge as your baby becomes more interactive with his or her surroundings. Your baby is probably interested in toys he or she can interact with and will put them in their mouth or move them from hand to hand while sitting up unassisted. And this is what my 6months milestone photography session is all about: capturing these cute little expressions while your little one is sitting up!

This moment is a significant age for babies as you'll also notice lots of amazing physical and intellectual developments in your baby. Perhaps, two little bottom teeth have appeared, their tiny tuft of hair has grown, and they've discovered their toes, sometimes even putting them in their mouth. While sitting up is the primary focus of my 6month photography session, this is also a magical opportunity for me to capture your baby's development and his or her joyous expression of curiosity.

Remember to schedule my six months milestone session when you notice your babysitting up for some time without support.

9-month session

Hello, your baby is on the move! This time around you are celebrating your baby turning nine months and what better way than to have a beautiful milestone photography session. As you celebrate the first nine months of your baby's life, you're probably watching your baby crawl or even hold onto the coffee table or couch to stand upright or walk around for a few seconds.

However, most babies don't take their first steps until their first birthdays, and this is why I advise families to wait until this period to know if it's ideal to include a 9-month milestone session in their first-year package. Best of all, every milestone brings in something new, and I'll love to capture what's new in your baby's life.

Whether your baby's crawling, cruising, or even walking a little, my 9-month baby session provides families with the perfect opportunity to capture some lovely shots before their little one turns the big O-N-E!

12-month session

The 12-month session is a special milestone in your baby's life. Unlike other milestone sessions, this photography session is not just only a lovely way to document your baby's first birthday, but also to celebrate the incredible year that you all have experienced together as a family with your baby.

A birthday is not a birthday unless there is cake so if you feel the urge to have a little cake smash to celebrate your baby's major accomplishment, then go right ahead. We will embark on a fantastic adventure together as I capture your baby smile, smash and enjoy a sweet treat throughout the session.

With my first-year milestone package, you will have so many exciting memories from your baby's birthday perfectly documented in splendid photographs to be cherished forever. They can keep growing, and you can find comfort in the knowledge that you can revisit how your child looked as a one-year-old any time.

Here is a tip: Most families prefer to have this session around 11months old, which opens the door to have a wide variety of pictures for your baby's first birthday party.
