What Is A Sitter Session? Newport Beach Newborn Photographer

A six-month milestone photoshoot is often referred to as a sitter session. These special images frequently include your little one showing off their recently learned sitting skills.

It is so important to capture the charm of this special age. Babies go through so many wonderful changes in the first few months of life. At 6 months, they are reacting to their surroundings with sweet facial expressions and their unique little personalities are starting to shine. We just love those adorable giggles!

Mom chose to capture baby's first year with both siblings of baby Louis and wanted to document this special time with her youngest son.

Why It’s Important To Capture 6-Month Portraits With Newport Beach Newborn Photographer

I had the pleasure of capturing this sweet family's newborn session and you can see by the photos just how quickly your little one grows. We are looking forward to building her baby's first year album over the year. 

1. Time Flies

Time has a way of slipping by fast, especially in the early months when everything is such a blur. From the tiny, fragile newborn they once were, your 6-month-old is quickly discovering the world around them. Some babies can now sit with support, while some may even be attempting to roll.  

2. It's a fun stage 

Six months is a time when your baby becomes more interactive and responsive. Their faces become more expressive and reveal glimpses of their emerging personality. Capturing their special uniqueness at this age will help you remember the unfolding personality of your precious little one. 

3. You won't regret it 

In the whirlwind of parenting, you will never regret taking the time to pause and capture these fleeting moments that will last a lifetime. These images become cherished memories that transport you back to the joy and wonder of your baby’s first year.

In the blink of an eye, the first six months of your baby’s life bring about many changes. Your portrait session is not only about creating beautiful images; it’s about celebrating the journey of growth and creating a visual legacy that will be cherished for years to come.

Celebrating each stage with a visual record of their growth and personality, you will be so glad you have these special moments in time to look back on.

Baby Lola was so sweet in her cream sweater set. Just look at that smile!

BABY'S FIRST BIRTHDAY

The family’s wardrobe was steamed and ready when they arrived at the studio. While they got ready, I captured some solo images of Lola. Baby girl looked so sweet in her cream tulle dress and adorable bonnet!

And just like that, it was time for cake! Baby Lola was excited to test the special little treat made just for her. Big brother got in a little kiss, so adorable!

As a baby's first year collective member, her parents chose to do a baby's first year album that includes their favorite portraits. This beautiful personalized heirloom will serve as a keepsake that will be cherished for years to come.

Why You Should Capture Baby’s First Year

Baby’s first year goes by in a blink and that is why our Baby’s First Year Collective is so important to document your little one’s momentous first year. 

Baby’s First Year

Life gets busy and time goes by so fast. As parents, we want to treasure these moments forever. We help you preserve these precious memories by photographing special milestones throughout the first year. From bump to first birthday, you can decide how many milestones you would like to document: maternity, newborn, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and one year. Most do 3-4 sessions depending on when baby is born. These images create a beautiful narrative of baby’s growth and capture subtle shifts in expression and personality.

MILESTONES

At each stage, you will have updated portraits to remind you just how much your little one has grown. Siblings are always welcome and it is so heart warming to document the special bond between them. We will work together to choose favorite portraits to design art work to display in your home and to add to our gorgeous heirloom albums personalized for your family.

3 Tips For A Newborn Session With Siblings | Newport Beach Newborn Photographer

You are expecting your second baby and dreaming of your sweet babies together in beautiful portraits you can cherish forever. After years of experience and hundreds of sessions, I have some tips and tricks up my sleeve to get those timeless portraits we are known for. 

LET GO OF ANY EXPECTATION 

  • First and most important, children can sense our energy as parents. If we remain calm and don’t get frustrated with their behavior, we can get them to warm up and enjoy the experience.  

  • Taking breaks with the bigger siblings and giving them some time to play will help them adjust to the environment. We try to keep the mood light and fun!

  • I’ve been around hundreds of children and have seen it all. Your toddler/child’s behavior can be unpredictable, but don’t worry, it will not surprise me. Being patient and flexible, I will help them enjoy the experience and get some great shots in the process.

SAFETY 

  • I always take into consideration the safety of the newborn and will never force a child into a position with the baby that they are uncomfortable with.

  • Sometimes, we just get a photo of the sibling touching the baby and that’s ok. We meet your child where they are based on age, mood, behavior, etc. 

REWARDS 

  • I always suggest bringing a favorite item or treat that will entice your little one. 

  • If needed, I also have a treasure box of goodies that can help keep them engaged.

  • Often times as parents, trying to force the kids to look at the camera can seem boring to them. It is much easier if we get authentic interactions, in addition to some posed shots. The goal is to capture that special bond between siblings.

Documenting those first precious moments of your newborn with their sibling is an amazing way to create lifetime memories.

Photographing your newborn and siblings can sometimes be a bit challenging, but I have plenty of tricks that I save for your session. If you’re due, it is best to reach out in the second trimester as we book up in advance. We offer a limited number of sessions, so it is important to book your session soon.

How Much Your Baby Will Change In One Year | Milestone Portraits In Newport Beach Studio

HOW MUCH WILL YOUR BABY GROW IN ONE YEAR?

It's hard to imagine when you are in the thick of one of the fastest years of your lives, but your precious baby will grow before you know it. 

That is why it is so important to capture those moments that document their personalities and the special stages they go through, the flashes of time you never want to forget. 

The early days with your little one can be a blur. That tiny newborn curled up in your arms will be sitting up in the blink of an eye. Before you know it, you will be chasing after your sweet baby wondering where the time has gone. 

WHY DO A MILESTONE SESSION? 

Because your little one grows so quickly, a milestone session capturing each unique stage is so important. At our 3-4 month sessions, baby is mastering tummy time. The 6-9 month sessions are referred to as sitter sessions because they are just learning to sit up without assistance. At 1 year, they are crawling and/or standing on their own when propped. 

Our baby’s first year collective features family portraits, including hair and makeup for Mom and wardrobe for the entire family. We offer this full-service experience because we know life with a little one can be busy. Our client closet offers a wide variety of beautiful options for Mom, kids clothing and little girls hair accessories, and shirts for Dad. We take care of scheduling the hair and makeup artist so Mom can relax and be pampered before her session. 

As quickly as this season passes, you will cherish the time you took to document these wonderful memories.

One Year Milestone Portraits In Newport Beach Studio | Baby’s First Year Collective

We all know how fast the first year flies by, which is why most parents choose to do our baby’s first year collective. This collective includes 3-4 sessions (sometimes Mom’s choose more) to document those important milestones for baby. 

Mom decided to capture solo portraits of Emily celebrating her first birthday. She looked so sweet in her own cute little pink dress, monogrammed diaper cover and bows that Mom brought to the session. 

It was such a joy capturing Emily having so much fun posing for her session. The birthday girl’s happy personality just radiates in all of these beautiful images. That little smile is so precious!

These one-year milestone sessions have become a favorite for parents and help ensure that they have beautiful memories to look back on. Life goes by quickly and we know the importance of documenting these special moments. Don’t miss out on capturing this exciting milestone, whether you make it a family celebration or just your sweet one year old!
