What is a baby milestone session?

Baby milestone sessions cater to capturing all things precious about the ever so purposeful and significant changes in the first year and a half of your little darling’s life.

  • Infants change quickly. Milestone portraits capture newness yet document adventures in babyhood. Sweet smiles, chubby rolls, clapping hands, shy grins, grabbing their toes, tummy time, crawling, rolling over, sitting up, and taking steps are preserved through timeless and vintage-inspired portraits.

  • A popular time to schedule is when Baby is rolling over or sitting up unassisted but not yet crawling or walking, such as a Little Sitter. Cake Smash and Splash sessions are also trendy for little ones nearing their first birthday. You may visit, however, anytime between 3 and 18 months new as all babies are endearing.

  • The studio encompasses clean, fresh, light, bright, and airy styling. Vintage meets classic for timeless results through swoon-worthy natural light with floor-to-ceiling windows. All wardrobes and accessories are included to create the dreamiest of galleries, so your baby is sure to be perfectly styled.

  • Bring your diaper bag essentials and leave the rest to me.

Where do milestone sessions take place?

4550 Post Oak Place, Suite 203, Houston Texas 77027

  • Appointments take place in the Houston Infant Portrait Studio, centrally located in Uptown. The studio and office are centrally located inside the 610 loop.

  • The studio offers excellent and brilliant natural light with a soft, heavenly glow. As a mommy to four young children, I can attest our little ones are adorable angelic cherubs and deserve to be showcased as such.

  • The all-white lifestyle room is clean, fresh, pure, and timeless, encompassing all the innocence of a darling baby boy or girl. Light floors, walls, and simplistic furniture never detract from your baby’s precious personality.

Simple without distractions

  • Removing distracting props embraces the personality and spirit of your Little One. Whether Baby is bashful or brave, joyful or thoughtful, or curious about the adventure in our world, your session cherishes their spirit.

  • Vintage-inspired props such as antique buckets, distressed miniature stools, and rustic farmhouse bowls accent sessions beautifully.

  • The cozy bed is a lovely prop for precious babies who are not yet on the move.

  • The images will forever be timeless; the purpose of portraiture is to pass these images down to your child as they grow in life. Removing distractions ensures props never detract from the precious nature of your ever so endearing little love.

Ever so purposeful and charming

Expect us to capture the spirit of your little one! Each child is adorable, captivating, sweet, often energetic, and fearless. During our time together, we will play while allowing the apple of your eye to be who they are. Sessions are very laid back. I have four young children (The Tiny Tribe of Wild Women and Chief Jack) and can confirm little ones simply want to connect and feel special.

Wardrobe and Styling are fully provided

The outfits below are samples of what you may expect. The studio often updates the client closet and adds new items for variety and seasons. Expect all clothing to be classic, timeless, and vintage-inspired without distracting logos or cartoon characters.

The Baby Milestone Client Closet has Over 200 Options. Below are samples of what you may expect, but by no means represent the variety of options we provide. The closet is regularly updated with new and precious items!

  • The client closet ensures your angel is cute as a button! Curated and luxury baby attire adorns dapper baby boys and petite little ladies. Your gallery is sure to showcase the most adorable tot on the block. The prop room is also filled with handcrafted and custom-made bonnets, hats, headbands, and tiebacks to highlight the cuteness of a chubby cherub.

  • Unique and exceptional details, such as wooden buttons, lace, classic hues, and soft cotton, decorate your angel. You will find swoon-worthy organic neutrals, vibrant jewel tones, muted colors, and dainty pastels.

  • Upon booking, we’ll chat about the colors you like. You may also tell me about the colors and decor within your home and nursery, and even perhaps a few you would like to avoid. All items are sanitized between use.

Cake Smash & splash details

A cake smash and splash celebrate Baby’s first birthday by having Little One smash a cake followed by splashing in a vintage farmhouse bowl or bucket.

  • Due to allergy purposes, clients bring a white 6” cake with buttercream frosting from your choice's bakery. HEB is always lovely!

  • A white cake stand or vintage high chair is provided for little one's cake smash smackdown. The studio offers outfits, warm water, bubbles, and an antique bucket or rustic farmhouse bowl. Parents bring cake toppers or any specific decor, such as a balloon, they might like incorporated.

  • Cake smashes best photographed at 11 months when the baby is not yet walking. This also allows the images to be displayed at their first birthday party or perhaps even used for invitations as you plan their celebration.

Rolls for days like a Shar-pei

When photographing a chubby little cherub, there is nothing more precious than baby rolls! Their darling smiles, ten little toes, and sparkling eyes are an absolute dream to document! How handsome is this dapper little fella as he shows off his muscles? Pure, fresh, clean, and natural baby portraits will forever stand the test of time; one day, these images will be on his mantle.
