Golden Hour Magic | Lucy’s First Milestone Session | Metro Detroit Infant Photographer

There’s something so special about a baby’s first milestone session—especially when it’s their very first time in front of the camera. Sweet little Lucy recently visited me for her 6-month milestone session, and it couldn’t have been a more perfect evening.

Her mama was brand new to my business and shared that she chose me because of the soft, natural style of my editing, the layered textures in my work, and the best part—she didn’t have to stress about planning outfits. As a busy mom, that meant everything to her. I brought along a curated selection of beautiful, handmade outfits from my client wardrobe, and she admitted she had a hard time choosing because she loved all of them (the best kind of problem!).

This was Lucy’s first professional photography session, as her family didn’t have the chance to schedule newborn portraits. So, her mama knew she wanted something truly special. She envisioned golden hour light and tall grassy fields—and that’s exactly what we created. To add a little extra magic, I brought wildflowers from my own garden to tuck into the grasses, giving us that whimsical, enchanted look that worked beautifully with the soft light.

Lucy arrived full of smiles and curiosity. She was absolutely radiant, and despite the late summer humidity and a few persistent mosquitos, we captured some truly beautiful portraits. Her happiness was infectious, and you can just feel the joy in every image.

It was a gift to photograph this family and to give them images they’ll cherish forever. These are the fleeting moments—the chubby cheeks, the gummy grins, the wide-eyed wonder—that deserve to be remembered.


Why Invest in Milestone Sessions During Baby’s First Year?

  1. They Grow So Fast
    Your baby changes more in the first year of life than at any other time. From tummy time to first steps, each phase is fleeting. Milestone sessions help you preserve these sweet stages before they pass by.
  2. More Than Just Pictures—Memories
    Professional milestone sessions aren’t just about a pretty photo. They’re about capturing your child’s emerging personality, their expressions, their spirit—so you can relive those emotions every time you look at the images.
  3. Stress-Free Experience
    As a parent, you have enough to think about. With access to a thoughtfully curated wardrobe, location styling, and years of experience working with babies, I take care of the details so you can simply show up and enjoy the moment.

If your little one is nearing a milestone—whether it’s sitting up, crawling, standing, or celebrating a birthday—now is the perfect time to schedule a session. Let’s create something magical together.
