The first year of your baby’s life is a blur of growth, change, and unforgettable moments. One day, they’re a sleepy newborn curled up in your arms, and before you know it, they’re sitting up, laughing at everything, and reaching for you with those tiny, chubby hands. As an OKC newborn photographer, I believe capturing these milestones isn’t just about having beautiful photos—it’s about preserving the moments you never want to forget.
Recently, I had the joy of photographing Salem and her sweet son, Blaine, who is now six months old—my absolute favorite age to photograph! At six months, babies are full of personality, endlessly curious, and just so joyful. Blaine was no exception. His big, gummy smiles, the way his chubby fingers grasped at his mama’s necklace, and those perfectly squishy arms and legs—I could have photographed him all day.
Why Capture First-Year Milestones?
The newborn stage is so fleeting, but the milestones that follow are just as special. Documenting these moments throughout the first year tells a complete story—one of growth, love, and all the little details that make your baby uniquely them.
3 Months – The first real smiles, bright eyes full of wonder, and those tiny hands beginning to grasp.
6 Months – Sitting up, belly laughs, and the most delightful chubby rolls. Babies at this age are incredibly expressive and interactive, making for some of the sweetest photos.
9 Months – Crawling, pulling up, and an even bigger personality! This stage is full of curiosity and movement.
1 Year – The big milestone! Whether they’re standing, taking their first steps, or smashing a cake, a one-year session is the perfect way to celebrate.
The Joy of Six Months | Blaine’s Studio Session
Blaine’s six-month session with his mama, Salem, was everything I love about this age. In the soft, natural light of the studio, we captured the sweetest moments—his big, gummy smiles, the way his eyes lit up when Salem talked to him, and those irresistibly chubby arms and legs. At six months, babies are so full of personality, and Blaine was no exception. He was curious, playful, and completely smitten with his mama, making for the most heartwarming portraits.
One of the best parts of a studio session is the simplicity—it allows the focus to stay completely on your baby and your connection with them. No distractions, just timeless, beautiful moments preserved forever. These are the photos that will take you right back to this stage, long after the baby rolls have faded and those little hands have grown.
