Baby Milestone Portraits with a Family Heirloom Dress

It was so good to see Baby Briar in the studio again! I met Baby Briar when she was a newborn – and I captured her mother’s maternity portraits, too. It’s always so special to then see those babies grow every few months when they come back to the studio for milestone portraits. For Briar’s six-month milestone portraits, we planned a classic and simple studio session. 

Briar’s mom chose a few outfits for the portraits – including a sweet pink romper I adore from the studio’s baby wardrobe. It was the perfect pop of color in Briar’s newborn portraits! And she looked so sweet. They also brought a family heirloom: a cream crocheted dress for Briar to wear. The dress was her grandmother’s, who wore it as a baby, and has now passed it between new babies in the family! It was so sweet – and it looked amazing with my Moses basket. 

Six-month milestone sessions are always a great time. Babies are learning to sit up, they’re laughing and have the sweetest smiles. I love watching them show off their new skills and explore the studio. I’m so happy to share these sweet milestone portraits with you today for Briar!!

Celebrating 6 Months | Lila's Floral & Hearts Milestone Session with Saratoga Springs Baby Photographer

Lila's mom & dad wanted to celebrate her first 6 months with a perfectly whimsical & girly session filled with pretty little details, soft colors, flowers, and hearts.  Of course, they came to just the right photographer because I LOVE creating sets like that here in our Saratoga Springs studio!

This sweet baby girl was so happy to show off her new sitting skills, and she loved playing with the hearts in our little Valentine's set-up.  We also created this set-up to honor CHD awareness and her personal medical victories, and I love that we were able to incorporate something so special that meant a lot to her parents during the session.

But the very best part of Lila's session?  These SMILES!  Only her mama was able to get her to laugh like this, and this beautiful baby girl couldn't take her eyes off of her mom.  She adores her, and that shows so clearly in her expressions in these portraits!

Our Baby Plan is the perfect way to celebrate your baby's milestones throughout the first year!  Come to the studio for the first smiles, tummy time, sitting up, crawling, the first tooth... there are truly so many possibilities!
