BABY MILESTONE CLIENT CLOSET
Did you know that, in addition to photographing newborns in their first few weeks of life, I additionally offer baby portrait sessions for babies of all ages, and that I also have a carefully curated baby milestone client closet that is available for my clients’ use? On that note, I have finally had an opportunity to photograph most of my baby milestone client closet, so if you would like to see all of the adorable offerings for your little ones, you can click here, or go to the “Details” tab on my website homepage. Trust me, you should go check it out – there are so many darling little outfits (because, honestly, I’m a bit *too* obsessed with buying cute baby clothes)! These are just a few examples of some of the pieces I have procured from boutiques and vendors all over the world.
As you will see in the milestone wardrobe gallery, my collection includes both neutral tones and a plethora of colors, and I have an equal number of backdrops to match. And, as my baby milestone portrait sessions are approximately an hour in length, clients are not limited to a single outfit or color choice for their portraits, allowing for a significant variety of images. And, just as with my newborn portrait sessions, I customize baby portrait sessions to reflect my clients’ vision, preferences, and specific requests. Thus, portraits can be as simple as your little one on a solid color backdrop, emphasizing purely baby, such as in these images.
Or sessions might include seasonal elements or themes that reflect baby’s or parents’ personal interests. (See sample images below.) I also often incorporate props, blankets, or toys that are meaningful to my little clients or their families. Regardless of whether a milestone session includes a simple backdrop or a more elaborate theme, or whether the session includes zero or 20 props and accessories, however, my primary objective in a baby portrait session is to capture those newly developing and precious baby expressions and skills. Babies grow and change SO fast in their first year of life. Their impossibly tiny fingers and toes get bigger, their hair grows, and their first tiny teeth make an appearance.
They also learn to smile, to touch and play with their feet, to appreciate “tummy time,” to wave and clap, to sit up, to crawl, and to walk! Photographing milestones allows us to create a visual record of your baby’s growth and development, while simultaneously capturing his or her unique personality. Milestone sessions document the essence of who your baby is at different stages— his or her quirky expressions, curious gazes, and joyful reactions, a representation of your child’s unique character and spirit.
If you would like to document *your* little one’s first-year milestones, please don’t hestitate to get in touch!
