Capturing the Journey: A Milestone Photography Timeline for Your Child
/Watching your child grow is one of the most enchanting parts of parenthood.
It's a journey filled with countless milestones and magical moments.
Capturing these special stages through photography can provide a cherished timeline of your child's growth. In this blog, we'll guide you through when and how to best capture these unforgettable milestones, from newborn to their first birthday and beyond.
Newborn Stage (first two weeks)
This is the perfect time to capture your baby's first days of life when they still are in that beautiful newborn phase. Consider booking a newborn session during the first two weeks after birth while your baby falls naturally into the foetal position they took up in the womb. These photos typically feature peaceful, sleeping babies curled in cosy wraps or delicately posed to highlight their newborn features. You can see my gallery Here.
Six - Eight Months
Half a year is a significant milestone that's filled with exciting changes. Most babies at this age are starting to sit up, giving you a chance to capture some adorable sitting poses. Some babies might be crawling - this stage is full of adventure and discovery. Their interactions and expressions at this age are priceless, offering perfect photo opportunities from a different perspective. Take a look Here.
First Birthday
A first birthday photoshoot is a fantastic way to celebrate this massive milestone. Consider a Cake Smash or a themed photoshoot. You'll cherish these images of your one-year-old's excitement, messy cake-filled hands, and their adorable, toothy grin. Take a look at the Cake Smash gallery Here.
Beyond the First Year
Family photo shoots are a the perfect way to capture your ever changing and growing family with gorgeous images you will treasure forever.
Let’s head out to a local Parks Trust park or woodland and have some fun while getting some beautiful, natural images of you and your family.
