Milestone mini sessions are the perfect way to capture your baby during their first year of life. Some of my favorite milestones to capture include; pushing up on their belly, sitting, standing, and walking. Sitter sessions take place when your baby is 5-7 months old, or whenever they start sitting on their own. Hudson came […]
