Milestone sessions are some of my favorites to photograph because they feel like a celebration. This little guy here came in to the studio with his wonderful parents for his 3 month milestone session! I think it’s easy to forget about having these “in-between” stages photographed. Many parents prefer to wait for a first birthday but let me tell you… every month is worth celebrating and capturing! Babies grow at such a rapid pace, why wouldn’t you want to photograph 3 months, 6 months, 9 months… and all of the “in betweens”?!
At the age of 3 months, babies will start to recognize you from farther distances. Many will also be able to start lifting their head and chest up from a belly-down position. This is definitely something worth celebrating! I know and understand that not everyone has the means to invest in professional photography but this is just a reminder to take all the photos! Even if it’s with your phone… capture all the moments of your little ones!
Take a look at this sweet 3 month milestone session of baby Gabriel and his parents. We kept the tones light, bright and neutral in my photo studio which is always a go to. We then decided to have a little wardrobe change and take things outdoors. The outfits chosen for the outdoor photos were more fall inspired as it was a little chilly outside. We had solid colors, neutrals, jeans and a little plaid print which worked really well with the warm outdoor colors! Baby Gabriel was such a cooperative baby, just take a look at these photos and look at his smile. He was the cutest little model!
