Milestones & Motherhood
One moment they're fitting in the crook of your arm, and the next they're sitting, laughing, reaching for you, and taking their first steps.
These sessions are designed to preserve the little details that change so quickly: the chubby hands, gummy smiles, wispy curls, and the way they look at you like you're their entire world.
Because while you're documenting your baby's milestones, you're also documenting your motherhood story.
The first year goes by in a blur...
Maybe those first few weeks passed in a blur, or newborn photos simply weren't possible. You haven't missed your chance to document your baby's first year.
From around 6-8 weeks onward, babies become more expressive, interactive and connected with you. Giving us a whole new season to photograph.

FAQ
Motherhood & Milestones sessions are designed for babies beyond the newborn stage. By this point, feeding is more established, you know your baby’s rhythms and cues, and they have more neck control, muscle tone and expression. This allows us to keep the session short and focus on connection and personality rather than settling and posing.
Newborns need a very different approach. Feeding and sleep patterns are still developing, and extra time is needed for feeding, soothing, settling, wrapping and safely posing your baby.
For this reason, babies in the newborn stage must be booked as a Newborn Session. Motherhood & Milestone sessions are not a shorter or simplified alternative to a Newborn Session.
Can I book a Motherhood & Milestone session for my newborn?
What ages are Motherhood & Milestones sessions for?
These sessions are perfect from around 6 weeks through baby's first year and beyond. Favourite stages include tummy time, sitting, first birthdays and those wonderfully busy early toddler months.
What if my baby doesn’t sit still or cooperate?
They don't need to! These sessions are about your baby as they are. We'll focus on movement, cuddles, connection and all those sweet little expressions rather than expecting them to sit perfectly for the camera.
How long is the session?
Sessions depend on your baby. Some will only take 20 minutes and others will take up to 60 minutes.
I missed my newborn session! Is it too late?
Not at all! If your baby has moved beyond the newborn stage, a Motherhood & Milestones session is a beautiful way to capture what comes next. The growing expressions, eye contact, little smiles and the connection developing between you.
These sessions aren’t a replacement for newborn photography, but they celebrate all the wonderful things babies begin to do as they grow.
If your baby is still within the newborn stage, a Newborn Session is the best choice and gives us the extra time needed for feeding, soothing, settling and those tiny newborn details.
Can I be in the photos too?
I hope you will! These sessions aren't only about documenting how your baby is growing. They're about your relationship with them, too. We'll capture plenty of baby on their own, along with the cuddles, little looks and connection between you.
What should we wear?
Keep it simple and comfortable. Soft, neutral colours and uncomplicated pieces photograph beautifully and keep the focus on you and your baby. I'm always happy to help with wardrobe choices before your session.
