A Year in the Life | Conrad’s First Year Milestone Sessions

The first year of a baby’s life is full of rapid changes. Tiny newborn yawns quickly turn into rolling over, first smiles, and those wobbly first steps. That’s what makes milestone photography so special: it allows you to capture each of these fleeting seasons as they unfold.

For baby Conrad, we documented this journey through a series of sessions that told the story of his first year.

✨ Newborn Session (In-Home)
We started with a cozy in-home newborn session, complete with snuggles, quiet moments, and the sweetest teddy bear (an heirloom prop that would make a reappearance a year later.)

✨ 3-Month Session (Holiday Studio)
Next, we celebrated the holidays with a studio session at three months. The Christmas tree was the perfect backdrop for festive portraits (and holiday cards!), and Conrad showed off those bright baby blues.

✨ 1-Year Session (Outdoor in DC)
To wrap up the year, we met outdoors with the Washington Monument in the background. By now, Conrad had grown into a busy, curious toddler walking, smiling, and showing off his personality in every frame.

Why Milestone Packages Matter

The beauty of a Milestone Package is that it captures your baby at each important stage of development. In just 12 months, so much changes and having photos of each chapter ensures you’ll always remember the little details. From newborn snuggles to gummy grins, and finally those first steps, milestone photography gives you a complete story of your child’s first year.
