Session information

Milestone sessions are a fun way to document your precious baby as they grow! If you had to choose one milestone in the first year of life to do a milestone session for, I would recommend when they are sitting up unassisted typically around 6 months of age! These sessions take place in my studio and are quick. They typically take only about 30-45 minutes or less depending on baby's toleration level.

Session information

Cake smash sessions are held in my studio and typically take about 1 hour. If you would like to display your baby's photos from their session at their birthday party, I recommend scheduling their cake smash session approximately 4 weeks before their birthday party! Depending on the package you choose, you are welcome to bring 1-3 outfits for baby. I do not provide outfits at this time. If you would like me to provide a cake for the smash portion, please make sure to add that on when booking and provide me with inspiration photos to send to the baker I work with when you book! Getting the cake order in when you book will make sure the cake is ready by your session!

The only things you will need to bring are outfits for your baby, a cake (if you don't want me to provide one), and snacks/drink for baby! I provide all the things for the setups including all the decor. I also have towels for clean up after the splash bath!

frequently asked questions

If you purchase a family add on for your milestone/cake smash session, the family portion will be completed first. Then the older siblings and other parent can take off and do something fun while we finish up with the rest of the session. Then we will do portraits of baby in 1-2 different setups. Expect to do a lot of moving for this part! I will be sitting and ready with the camera to capture the cute shot while you chase a moving toddler and continuously put them back into the scene as they crawl or run for it. After portraits, we will introduce the cake! This part gets messy and its a blast! If you have chosen a splash bath package, we will get out the tub and put some warm water in it for them to have a good time splashing around. I have towels for clean up too!
