This sweet boy takes a long time to warm up to the camera but we got those smiles in the end! I love baby mini sessions, especially in the bedroom studio. They are so soft, so pure. Just baby having fun with some of the toys I have here and showing off their new skills. Babies change so much in the first year, it’s a joy to watch them grow.

It’s very easy to book a mini session for your baby here online. Just visit my shop, purchase your session and then email me at [email protected] to schedule a time. I shoot weekdays M-F all year except for major holidays. These are quick sessions, we can get children of all ages in and out in 20-30 minutes, and then you have a set of beautiful photos to hang in your home for years to come.
