If this tiny newborn on her daddy’s firefighter jacket looks familiar, it’s because I got to capture the same shot at her big sister’s newborn photoshoot just under 2 years ago. Getting to watch my little newborn clients grow and welcome a new sibling is one of my absolute favorite things about what I do! These beautiful sisters were both total dreams for their sweet photoshoot.
Incorporating personal touches into sessions makes them so much more meaningful, and it was an added privilege to honor a firefighter especially after the terrible fires California has experienced this year.
This little beauty is halfway to one! This is the third time I’ve been so lucky to photograph her since her newborn and 4 month photos. She is so beautiful!
Why 6 Month Baby Photos Are Worth It
6 months is such an important milestone to capture your baby’s rapid development and unique personality. At this stage of life, babies have become more interactive, mobile, and expressive.
There are so many reasons why you should consider booking a 6-month photo session:
1. Capturing a fleeting stage: Babyhood goes by quickly, just 12 short months. Multiple photo sessions during the first year document growth and provide lasting memories.
2. Emergence of personality: At six months, your baby’s unique personality is shining through in full force. Capturing it is priceless.
3. Gummy grins and giggles: Six-month-olds often have adorable gummy smiles, giggles, and a fascination with their toes. It’s a great time to document those chubby thighs and wrists before they disappear as your baby becomes more mobile. While not all babies sit unsupported at 6 months, it’s a great portrait pose when they can sit upright.
4. Developmental milestones: At this age, babies are often sitting up, rolling over, and may be close to crawling. These milestones make for amazing photos, and at this age, babies are not yet so active that they’re constantly on the move, making them easier to photograph.
A 6-month photo session is an investment in capturing a precious and fleeting time in your baby’s life. You’ll never regret having beautiful images to look back on!
After previously photographing this wonderful family for their second daughter’s newborn session and then her 1st birthday photoshoot, I was thrilled to document the newest addition to their family – an adorable baby boy who arrived just before Christmas. Scroll down to view their handsome baby boy’s newborn photos! I made sure to get some portraits of the girls for their January birthdays too.
It’s always so fun to see a family’s dynamic grow and change after welcoming a new little one. They were obviously so excited to have a baby boy after their two adorable girls, and dad brought some special props for his son. This little guy is as cute as can be and so loved!
Welcoming a newborn is a magical time filled with fleeting moments that pass in the blink of an eye. Hiring a newborn photographer is a special way to preserve these precious early days, ensuring you have beautiful memories to cherish for a lifetime. The newborn stage is incredibly short, as babies change constantly as they grow. I offer multiple options for newborn, baby, and child photos, and my goal is to create timeless images that capture your child’s unique personality and milestones – from tiny newborn details to playful toddler expressions and everything in between.

This adorable baby boy’s cake smash was such a blast! I loved the simple setups his momma chose, and he was so full of personality which of course made his photos pop. As I often do with each first birthday photoshoot, we started with family and sibling photos, then changed up props and outfits, and ended with a sweet and simple cake smash!
I was so excited to see adorable little Oakley for 4 month photos after getting to capture her newborn photos earlier this summer. This time her siblings came to the session. I can only imagine how popular little Oakley must be at home — with that adorable smile and her scrumptious rolls, I’m sure nobody ever wants to put her down! She is such an absolutely darling baby.
When I first met this gorgeous baby girl for her newborn photos, I was blown away by her gorgeous eyelashes. I can attest she has somehow gotten even cuter with her stunning lashes, dimples, and smile. Not gonna lie, I wanted to keep her! I was so glad that her momma made the drive out to visit me for her 6 month milestone photos. I’ve said it about a million times before, but 6 months is one of the cutest ages ever — an age that’s 100% worth scheduling a special photoshoot for!
I highly recommend scheduling a Family Mini session to quickly and easily update your family photos, whether it’s for holiday cards, showing your family off on social media, creating family photo books or printing family photos to display in your home!
