Planning


Baby and milestone sessions are typically just good fun. But without just a little planning, these sweet sessions can turn sour. Read our quick blog post on how to plan, best times to schedule and what to pack for the best milestone session portraits.

Styling your session


 

For babies under 8 months, plan on baby being photographed in a diaper cover so we can capture all those sweet rolls and toes one last time. When it’s time for clothes, the simpler and softer the better. Read our tips below.

 
 
 
 

SIMPLY SOFT & TEXTURED

We love textures like crushed linen and chunky knits. Keep clothing minimal and unfussy such as a simple diaper cover, a pair of cute linen shorts or sundress.

NEUTRAL , LIGHT COLOR PALETTE

Tender baby skin will be highlighted best against neutral, soft fabrics. Choose a color palette of white, soft wheat and cream, blush, very light soft greys, greens, and blues. Avoid all dark clothes.
