PROFESSIONAL BABY PHOTOS BY CRABAPPLE PHOTOGRAPHY
Serving Families in Andover, MA and the Boston Area
The first year of your baby’s life is such an exciting adventure! It’s filled with so many changes and little milestones, each one unique and special in its own way. That’s why I absolutely love capturing these moments and celebrating everything that makes your baby amazing. This precious time flies by fast, but professional baby photos let you hold on to those sweet memories forever and treasure every incredible step along the way. Below are some popular baby photography milestones including ages. For further reading, check out my guide to getting to know each milestone baby portrait session.
Three to Four Month Old Baby.
A popular milestone to photograph after newborn portraits is when your baby is three to four months old. At this stage, they’re starting to hold their head up all by themselves and becoming more alert and curious about the world. Plus, often they still fit in many of the cute props we use for newborn baby photography sessions at the Andover, MA studio. And let’s be honest, those chubby thighs, squeezable cheeks, and tiny toes? Absolutely irresistible!
Six to Nine Month Old Baby Sitter Session.
One of my favorite first year milestones to photograph is the “sitter session,” usually taken between six to nine months old. At this stage, your baby can typically sit up on their own, which gives us more options for creative poses and adorable props during your baby photography session. Babies this age are so much fun, they’re quick to smile, clap, giggle, and even rock or dance when you sing to them! They’re curious, learning new things every moment, and their unique personalities really start to shine. My goal is to capture all of that magic in your beautiful baby milestone photos.
First Birthday Milestone.
The final milestone during the baby stage is the first birthday, and it’s such a fun moment to capture with professional baby photography. Turning one is definitely a reason to celebrate, which is why cake smash sessions are so popular for first birthday photos. And more importantly, they’re a blast! Maybe your baby has started standing on their own or pulling themselves up using furniture, or even your legs. Maybe they’re crawling around like the wind. Either way, so much has changed since those tiny newborn days, and that’s the perfect reason to schedule new baby milestone photos. Let us help you plan your custom cake smash photo session, tailored to your favorite colors, theme, and style to make your baby’s first birthday memories truly special.
No matter what age your baby is, there is always a reason to celebrate them. Check out our baby photos Pinterest board for more inspiration.
