Baby’s First Milestones

From tummy time to crawling and walking, and then their first birthday, the milestone session is the perfect way to capture those fleeting baby stages. Babies do very well at these sessions. At Lisa Poseley Photography, we specialize in capturing those fleeting milestones during your baby’s first year. Inquire about our baby and toddler plans!

Baby Milestone Photo Session

Baby milestone sessions are a beautiful way to document your child’s first year, capturing the sweet, expressive stages that pass so quickly. Our milestone sessions are done in the studio.

Milestones are often photographed at 3, 6, and 9 months. If you’re planning to do just one, we highly recommend the 7-month sitter session. We’ll create beautiful images that capture your baby’s sweet and unique personality. Before crawling makes things a little more unpredictable, when they are sitting confidently and adorably. The next favorite session, of course, is the 1st birthday cake smash!

These sessions are styled to be beautiful and timeless. I offer a wide variety of backdrop colors and classic wooden props and toys. I have found that babies do much better with less chaos or distractions. Beautiful, simple wooden props and toys, a solid backdrop, and a few simple sitting props or fabrics are ideal for stunning, timeless images.

Baby Milestone Full and Mini Session

Choose from our full custom session, lasting 60 to 90 minutes, depending on the number of outfits, backdrops, and additional family portraits. Alternatively, opt for our Milestone Mini to capture your baby’s milestone with a quicker session that keeps photos up to date without a significant commitment.
