Six month photos catch your baby right at the sweet spot — sitting up, full of personality, giggly, and not yet mobile enough to squirm out of frame. Tucked between the newborn haze and the whirlwind of a first birthday, this milestone session captures a stage of your baby you’ll be so glad you slowed down for.

My mini sessions are short, five-to-ten-minute studio sessions with three edited images, perfect for a quick portrait update or holiday cards. Full sessions give you unlimited time, full wardrobe planning, and a complete custom gallery, and it’s the better fit for documenting an actual milestone like a newborn, maternity, or family season. If you’re just looking for a quick refresh, go mini. If you want the whole story told, book a full session.

Extended family photos are one of the most requested sessions I photograph, and also one of the most postponed. Everyone wants them. Almost nobody starts planning them early enough. If you’ve got a gathering on the horizon and you’re trying to figure out how to actually make a session happen, here’s the honest truth: the session itself is the easy part. Getting four or five families to agree on a date is where most people underestimate the timeline.
