Pensacola, Florida Baby and Child Milestone and Cake Smash Photographer
You will never forget the first moment you laid eyes on your daughter or the first time you heard your son cry. These are truly magical moments. As much as we hope and pray they will stay little forever, they grow up anyways. Those first few years seem to fly by and each moment becomes a fleeting memory.
As your sweet baby grows, you will want to remember every moment. Every laugh, every dimple, every "first", every milestone. What better way than with a photo to showcase your baby's newest ability? Milestones are perfect to show off head control, sitting up, standing, crawling, walking. I love to look back at those pictures of my little ones - see their little round faces, their thigh rolls, that innocent twinkle in their eye.
Milestone is defined as an "event marking a significant change or stage in development." So whether your little one is 6 months old, starting pre-school, or even just to document how he or she is at the fun age of 10 - these sessions are for you!
Let them be little, because they are only that way for a little while.
I will showcase your baby in a neutral setting or with a colorful background. Let us document those adorable giggles, chubby hands, and carefree spirit. Cake smashes and milestone sessions can be done in my Pace, Florida photography studio or on location in the Pensacola, Pace, Milton, Beach, or surrounding areas. Cake smashes are perfect to have photos done of your little one in a formal or casual outfit before letting them smash into their first cake. I have an adorable wardrobe available for 0-12 months that will help them look their best if you don't have an outfit in mind!
Studio Wardrobe
All inclusive props and wardrobe usage.
I have an abundance (arguably too many) props, backdrops, headbands, outfits, etc. for babies.
And this is just a TASTE of what I have - I'm a little addicted to buying cute baby clothes, so I'm always adding more.
I have a rainbow of different backdrops, as well as tons of new specialty cake smash backdrops. Check out this blog post featuring some of my favorites. I can also make balloon arches to go with any color you'd like!
SO. MANY. COLORS.
The Experience
I am looking to create a variety of photographs of your baby, capturing how fun and special this stage is for them. When you arrive, I might take a few minutes to let your baby acclimate to their new environment and warm up to me. I will have a few different looks and set ups ready to go, or we can look through any outfits you may have brought. I invite you to look over my website and let me know if you see any set ups that you would like to incorporate!
We will follow your baby's lead and try to capture their natural personality. Depending on your choice of package, I usually have enough time for 2-3 set ups for milestones. For cake smashes, we will be able to do a formal set up (or two) before moving to the cake smash portion. I will get pictures with your little one clean and then while they are "smashing". Afterwards, if time allows, we will do a quick clean up and have some pictures in my pretend bathtub. Don't worry, we will get smiles and fun expressions. I have lots of training and experience under my belt, not to mention FOUR kids of my own.
You should book your session 3-5 months in advance. My schedule fills up quickly and I only take a small number of sessions so that I have plenty of time to devote to each client.
