A child’s life is full of many memorable photo opportunities for milestone portraits. There is never a shortage of reasons to celebrate their achievements, from birth to graduation. Our children never stop growing or learning.

They’re a little older, wiser, and more independent every day. Commemorate this moment as they are now with children’s milestone photography.

So, what are they? Milestone photo sessions document different points of development throughout your baby’s first year. Babies grow and change so much and it all goes by too fast. All of a sudden they are rolling over, sitting up, crawling, pulling themselves up, and then they start taking their first steps. As a parent, all you want to do is freeze time — if only for a moment. 

For this reason, many people choose to have professional photos taken to celebrate some of these milestones throughout their baby’s first year. So you always have photographs to look back on to remember each of these precious stages. 

Most major milestones occur at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, and one year. But every baby is different and milestone sessions don’t need to happen at those ages. We plan their milestone sessions around their development stages — when they start rolling over, sitting up, pulling themselves up, or even taking their first steps — documenting these special stages of your baby’s first year. 

These sessions take place in my home studio. I recommend dressing your baby in simple, neutral colors, free of patterns.
