Frequently asked questions
How old should my baby be for a milestone session?
Milestone sessions are perfect for celebrating any stage of your baby’s first year! Many families choose to schedule sessions around sitting milestones, 9 months, or a first birthday, but there is no “right” age. These sessions are designed to capture your baby’s personality and growth wherever they are.
What should my baby wear for their session?
You’re welcome to choose from my client closet of carefully selected baby outfits, or bring something special from home. I’ll help guide you toward outfits that photograph beautifully and fit the style of your session.
Do you provide the cake and decorations?
I provide simple cake stands and styling pieces to create a beautiful, timeless setup. Families are responsible for bringing the cake, and I recommend choosing a cake that is soft, simple, and easy for little hands to enjoy.
What if my baby doesn’t want to smile or gets messy?
That’s completely okay! Milestone sessions are baby-led and focused on capturing your little one as they are. We’ll take breaks when needed and embrace all the sweet expressions, curiosity, and personality that make this stage so special.
