Ella Kate is 7 months old! We did milestone portraits when her big brothers were this age, and as it always goes for the baby of busy families, time flies by and parents remember, “Oh, wait! I forgot to schedule xyz!”. So when her mom reached out and said “Ella is six months already! I think I’d like to do a milestone session and capture this sweet stage!”... I was happy to fit her in right away for a studio session.
This is such a fun age for milestone portraits. At 6-7 months, babies have some great milestones and things to explore. They grab their toes, roll around, and get to play in our studio. I love playing peekaboo with them so we capture their laughs! One of the other things I love about these milestones is documenting their beautiful finger and elbow dimples. Babies so quickly grow out of this stage, so having portraits of their adorable smile and chunky fingers is special as years go by!
The best part about these milestone sessions? You literally don’t have to bring a thing, so zero planning was required other than figuring out what time worked best around her nap schedule. Ella borrowed outfits and headbands from the studio, and her mom picked out all of her favorites when she arrived. It was an absolute breeze, completely stress-free. Instead, we just had lots of fun watching this sweet girl and her new skills and budding personality!
