San Antonio Baby Photography | Kolbie’s 6 Month Session

It feels like Kolbie was just in my San Antonio area studio for her newborn portraits, but here she is back for her six month photos to show off her sitting up skills!  She is the sweetest baby and so happy.  We had a lot of fun recreating some of her newborn shots for her “grow with me” series.  The teddy bear hat is my favorite!  She looks downright fancy in pearls and a Dollcake Oh So Girly dress, too!

Interested in capturing your baby’s first year in a special package?  Please see what I offer here!

San Antonio Child Photographer | First Birthday Portraits & Cake Smash

 

Reagan first came to the San Antonio studio for newborn portraits and in a blink was already returning for her first birthday photo session with cake smash and bubble bath!  She was lovely in a princess crown on my vintage love seat and just adored the pearl necklace props.  Reagan’s mama gave me some special things to include on her first birthday chalk board so that they will always remember what she was like at this adorable age.

We recreated some of Reagan’s newborn portraits to show her growth… I love the sport shots since Mom says balls are her favorite toy.

Reagan’s first birthday cake smash was a cupcake theme and we shot them outdoors in my vintage high chair.  She had a slow start but was soon digging right in!  And the little genius can hold up one finger for being one!  With all that cake and icing everywhere, we simply had to give her a bubble bath to clean up. How adorable is she in the shower cap by Feather River Boutique?

Thanks for celebrating your first year with me Miss Reagan, it was an honor to your photographer.

San Antonio Baby Photographer | Baby’s First Year Portrait Plan | Nolan

As San Antonio’s premier baby photographer, I love watching children grow from sleepy newborns to chubby, smiley babies, then to spunky toddlers celebrating their first birthday!  I offer a Belly to Birthday Portrait Package that captures that first precious year and documents the growth that happens in the blink of an eye.

My package (details here), includes four portrait sessions: maternity, newborn, 6 month/sitting, and a one year session with cake smash.  If you prefer, you can replace your maternity session with a 9 month mini session.  These sessions ensure that you capture every adorable stage and don’t miss any of those fleeting moments.  Each session in my package includes 2 digital images so that you may show off your adorable baby and make prints wherever you wish.  Also included in the package is a custom Facebook timeline cover (examples here) of your favorite newborn images, and a custom smart phone app to show off your gallery.  After your child’s birthday session, I compile a custom designed 10×10 lay flat fine art album… it is BEAUTIFUL.  The memories preserved on these thick, museum quality pages with be cherished forever.

 I adore watching the “baby plan” babies grow.  And I often document this growth with what I call “recreation images.”  I like to choose a favorite photo from the newborn session and use the same prop, pose, and/or backdrop at each milestone session to show exactly how much the baby has grown.   You can see an example below from Nolan’s first year in my airplane prop.  Babies grow fast, I highly recommend signing up for the Belly to Birthday package so you don’t miss those milestones!

Nolan just graduated from my baby plan.  It was an honor to serve his family and watch him grow.  He is seriously adorable and I honestly think he should be a baby model!  This kid is CUTE.  First you see him with his birthday sign… this is a chalkboard that I customize for your child to share their stats, favorite foods, words, etc.

Below are some images of Nolan at his newborn, 3 month, and 6 month sessions.

Here is Nolan’s growth series!

And finally, here is Nolan at one year!

Nolan was not a fan of the cake smash.  You just never know which kids will love it or hate it!  But, it is still adorable…

He did, however, love the bubble bath in my cute shower tub that washed all that cake away!

PLEASE NOTE:

I would also like to announce that I will not be offering family mini sessions this Fall or Winter.  With the birth of my third daughter, I would like to spend more time with my young family over the Holidays.  I hope that you understand.  I am happy to recommend Sarah Moran Photography for your family photo sessions.

San Antonio Baby Photographer | Twin Girls

Sweet baby girls Agnes and Ingeborg had so much fun at their newborn session that they came back to see me at six months old.  I ADORE 6 months… they are sitting and happy and showing personality.

We recreated a few of their newborn portraits to show growth… I promise I did not shrink the basket!  I can’t wait to see how much they change again at one year old.

We also got girly with the twins and styled their sessions with some pearls, vintage dresses, pink, a Dollcake Oh So Girly frock, flowers, vintage quilts, and some of the same headbands they wore as newborns.  We used the British flag prop to represent Dad’s heritage and their dresses had Nordic characters from mom’s culture.  🙂

Thanks for coming to play with me sweet girls!  You are so photogenic!
