Everyone books the newborn session, and please still do that one, that squish is unmatched and they will never be that small again. But can we talk about how milestone sessions are secretly even more fun?!
I take the monthly phone pics too, strawberries lined up to make a “6,” the whole thing. Love it, will keep doing it. But they don’t really show how your relationship with your baby is changing at each stage. The way they reach for you now versus a few months ago. The way they laugh at you specifically because you’re their favorite person in the whole world. That’s the part a fruit number can’t capture.
Your baby sitting up for the first time? Pulling themselves up to stand, wobbly and so proud of themselves? Crawling around on their belly like a tiny determined inchworm? That is PERSONALITY. That’s the good stuff. And it’s the stuff that gets skipped, because everyone’s so focused on newborn and one year that the in-between stages, the sitter session around 6 or 7 months, the 9 month session when they’re pulling up on everything, slip right by undocumented.
I have never laughed more during a session than at a milestone shoot. Most of the time it’s pure giggles and gummy smiles, but every once in a while I’ve gotta pull out my turkey gobble to get there, and honestly those sessions are just as fun in a totally different way.
Here’s the thing about milestones. Your baby will only have those two bottom teeth for a little while. Will never crawl on their belly like this again. Will never stand on their tiptoes reaching for something like they do right now, ever again. It’s such a short window and it disappears so fast.That’s exactly why the Milestone Membership exists- three sessions so you don’t miss the in-between (with room to add on more if you want them all).
Let’s make sure you don’t miss the in-between. ✨
