Milestone sessions! Who doesn’t love an adorable milestone session?

Milestone photos, especially first birthdays, are fun and a right of passage. Your baby has changed so much since they were a newborn and you just want to freeze time for a moment. I especially love seeing my newborn clients come back a year later. It is always so special to see how much they have grown.

First birthday photos are such a special milestone that everyone wants to capture. These sessions can be simple with a classic white setup and minimalist props, or they can be more vibrant with fun character backdrops and themes. Personally, I love something in the middle. Classic and minimal, but with a little vintage twist.

My all time favourite style is watercolour inspired setups that feel like they came straight out of a vintage children’s book. Soft colours, simple details, and a timeless feel that never goes out of style.

So now that we’ve established what I love, what kinds of themes can you do? Honestly, the options are endless. That is part of the fun. We can create something totally unique for your baby or choose a theme that you already love.
