We recently featured Oona's newborn session, six month session, and her parents' maternity session. This is her 9 month milestone session!

Most clients opt for newborn, sitting, and first birthday sessions, but we have some clients choose to celebrate 3 months/100 days old and 9 months too. You can never have too many photographs!

Oona's mom chose to have her wear a traditional kimono for part of the session and then chose a sweet white eyelet lace dress from the studio wardrobe for the rest. Nine month sessions are some of my favorites... babies have such unique personality traits and pudgy little fingers and toes. I loved Oona's teensy little pigtails and made sure to document that for her mama as well.

Nine month sessions are relaxed and easygoing. We spend time just playing while I capture your baby being just who they are at that time in their life. I always ask parents to quietly sit on the couch and observe. While your intent may be to help, your baby can become confused if you're standing right behind the photographer calling to them. They don't know where to look, they're in a new environment, and they can quickly become overwhelmed. The studio is a calm and peaceful environment and I approach babies in the same way. The quieter, the better! Here are a few of my favorites from Oona's nine month session. I can't wait to share images from her FIRST BIRTHDAY session in a couple of days. This little girl LOVES birthday cake, as you will see!

If you're pregnant and looking for a newborn or maternity photographer, I would love to work with you to create images that you will love for a lifetime. Be sure to view this short 1.5 minute film to hear about my philosophy and see how I work in the studio so you can determine if I'm the right fit for you. I can't wait to meet you!
