STUDIO MILESTONES

thumbnail_edited_edited.jpg

They change more in one year than at any other time in life.

 

From first smiles to first steps, each milestone marks a beautiful shift in your baby’s personality, confidence, and curiosity. Studio milestone sessions are designed to capture those in-between stages — the ones that feel small in the moment but mean everything as the years pass.

 

Whether it’s:

 

  • 3–4 months – those first gummy smiles and tummy-time strength

  • 6–8 months – sitting up independently and full of expression

  • 9–12 months – crawling, standing, and almost on the move

  • One year – celebrating a full year of growth and joy

 

 

Our studio provides a clean, timeless setting that keeps the focus exactly where it belongs — on your child. Soft tones, natural light, and simple styling ensure that your images never feel trendy or dated. Just authentic. Just them.

 

Milestone sessions are playful and relaxed. We follow your child’s lead, capturing genuine expressions, curious glances, and those irresistible little details — the chubby hands, the wispy hair, the proud “I did it!” smiles.

 

These sessions pair beautifully together, creating a visual story of your baby’s first year — a story you’ll treasure long after the toys are packed away and the nursery has changed.

 

Because while the days may feel long, the milestones arrive faster than you ever imagined.

The Process

1. Let's Chat- It all starts with a quick chat on the phone. We will discuss your vision and the experience you want to create so that your artwork is custom to you and your family.  

    
2. Session Prep & Custom Styling- I'm here to hold your hand during this process to make it as easy as possible. This involves meeting at your home or a location of choice to go over artwork placement specially designed in your home. This time allows you to share your vision and design so I can help guide you to create artwork that flows seamlessly in your home.  I will also ask questions about your family to get to know who you are so your session is as smooth as possible.  An option of outfit selection with a vision board can be provided to help guide you to create colors and selections that photograph beautifully and create a timeless elevated look that goes perfectly with your home's decor. I also can coordinate hair and makeup appointments if you wish.  In studio or on location of your choice is selected at this time. 

A session fee to reserve your spot is placed upon booking along with artwork ordering for an additional fee. 

​

3. Session Day-This is the FUN part. Now that all the information piece is set, I know exactly what needs to be photographed and we can just enjoy the process. We are creating authentic memories that encourage connection and emotion. 

​

4.Heirloom Artwork & Gallery Delivery- Within 7 days, you'll receive a slideshow with your gallery to choose photos to create your artwork of your liking.  You also will receive digital prints of the photos used in your heirloom artwork.
