I always offer to start every 1st birthday milestone session with a family photo. It was such a great time to get an updated family photo since the baby had grown so much in the last year!

It’s also the perfect way for baby to get used to the camera and helps them be comfortable when it’s just their turn.

After we have captured those family photos, it’s time to show off all of Emmy’s cuteness! I have a closet full of outfits to choose from, and I just love the ones that Mom picked out for Emmy. They are just beautiful on her!

Milestone sessions are all about showcasing new skills! Emmy wasn’t quite walking just yet, but we just had to get a few of her pulling up and standing. She’s so proud of herself!

Before we added in the cake, we had to get one with the whole setup and with her favorite little love! I love it when families bring in something special like this little bear to be a part of the 1st birthday milestone session!

There’s nothing cuter than sweet little baby toes and those dimpled hands! I always make sure to capture little hands and feet at both the newborn and milestone sessions. Seeing just how tiny they are and how much they grow in just a year is always a special photo for me.

Emmy loved her cake so much! She was happy to use her hands or her little spoon to taste it all!

We ended with a little bath to clean up! She was all about kicking and splashing in the water. What a sweetheart she was!
