They don't stay little for long. Document those details you never want to forget with timeless customized sets planned with you and your children in mind.
While I do offer digital images with all of my sessions, I’ve found that they often get tucked away on a flash drive or lost in the endless scroll of our phones.
Family albums and heirlooms are becoming a fading art, and I believe your memories deserve more than to be forgotten in a folder. Printing your images ensures they live in your home — tangible, visible, and woven into your everyday life.
During your reveal appointment, I’ll create gallery wall mockups scaled to your own walls and walk you through options for framing, album covers, and unique ways to display your images. The goal is simple: to help you get the most out of your investment and enjoy portraits you can walk by each day, not just swipe past.
And mama, I know your plate is already full. Let me take “print and frame photos” off your to-do list so you can simply enjoy the memories.
A few days after your session, we’ll meet for your reveal appointment. I’ll guide you through my curated heirloom products and digital files to help you choose the images you’ll treasure for years to come. Every portrait you select is fully retouched and perfected so the final result feels timeless, beautiful, and true to this season — even if your little one showed up with a “warrior wound” from play the day before.
On session day, everything is kept easy and relaxed. Outfits are ready to go, and the focus is on letting your child simply play and show off their personality. I’ll step in with gentle direction when needed, but most of the session is about capturing natural smiles, curiosity, and all the little in-between moments that make this stage so special. After all, this season is about play, so were going to fill it with the moments you never want to forget.
Every milestone session begins with a planning chat, either in person or over video call. This is where we talk through your ideas, or create a vision together if you’re not sure where to start. You’ll also have access to my curated wardrobe for children 18 months and under, and I’ll provide styling guidance for toddlers so every detail feels easy and intentional.
You’re in one of the quickest and most meaningful seasons of motherhood. The little years seem to change overnight. One day it’s gummy grins, the next it’s first steps, and then suddenly it’s full conversations you can hardly believe are coming from your toddler. These are the chapters that go by too quickly to trust to memory alone.
Milestone sessions are centered completely on your child. From six months to three years and everything in between, each stage is worth remembering. Whether it’s a simple, timeless studio setting or something more playful outdoors, every detail is planned with care so you can simply bring your child and let them be themselves.
These aren’t just portraits of who they were in a moment. They are tangible reminders of the joy, growth, and love that has carried them through these little years.
