From tiny newborn stretches to those wobbly first steps, your baby's first year will fly by. Milestone sessions document the growth and personality blossoming in front of you day by day.

The Story continues,
One Milestone at a Time

As a Raleigh baby photographer, I’m here to help you press pause on this season and hold on to the moments you never want to forget: the gummy smiles, the curious expressions, the way they light up when they see their mama.

My milestone sessions are baby-led and relaxed, with simple guidance to bring out your child’s natural expressions. You can settle in, enjoy the moment, and trust that I’ll create portraits that feel authentic and full of heart.

Because these are the portraits they’ll grow up seeing — the ones that show them who they were and how deeply they were loved from the very beginning.

because babies don't keep

Christy is a true baby whisperer. Her gentleness and keen eye for the perfect look leads the way to timeless baby portraits. Every session I’m once again in awe of her talent.

At your Design & Order Appointment, you’ll get to sort through printed proofs, explore artwork options, and choose the images that you just can't leave behind. We’ll create artwork that flows beautifully from one milestone to the next for a cohesive, meaningful record of your baby’s story.

Your baby sets the pace — and that’s exactly how it should be. In my cozy Wake Forest studio, you’ll find a calm space that allows for curiosity, personality, and natural connection to shine. I’ll guide everything gently, helping you feel confident and supported while I notice the tiny expressions and sweet details you’ll never want to forget.

My recommended stages for milestone sessions are when baby is sitting confidently and celebrating their first birthday. Reserving ahead ensures your preferred timing and gives you the ease of knowing this milestone is already planned for. Many families choose to join The First Year Anthology for priority booking & preferred pricing throughout their baby’s first year.

And whether you want digital or printed images, I won't leave you hanging after your session. We'll meet again for your Design & Order Appointment to sort through printed proofs from your session.
