This sweet family has been with me for years now. They first found me when they were looking for a newborn photographer for their baby boy (who is now the best big brother) and we’ve done several sessions since that time, including an newborn session for their daughter, Paityn. I could hardly believe it had been a year already and it was time for the great 1 year milestone photoshoot!

It was so fun to see this cute girl and her family again. Including their dog, Bling, who always joins! He’s got such a great little personality and he and the kids are so adorable together.


While milestone sessions can definitely be focused completely on baby, I think it’s also fun to include a few family portraits during this time. After all, you’re here at the studio, so why not? Paityn was definitely the star of the show and most of our baby pictures were just with her. But we also got some sibling and family portraits so we could document this moment for the whole family. Because really, it’s a milestone for everyone!



Paityn was such a sweetie and gave me some great smiles. I love milestone sessions because babies have so much personality at this age and love to interact and explore. These little ones are a pure delight!

I can’t wait to see this family again in a few months. They are already booked for fall photos and we’re going to have so much fun together! By the way, my fall schedule books up really fast, so if you’re wanting an autumn photoshoot—or a photoshoot at any other point this year—please reach out as soon as possible! I would love to get you on the calendar so we can connect and document your unique story!
