the milestone experience

capturing all the sweet details of childhood

Babies change so quickly in their first year with us, which is why milestone sessions are so incredibly important. Preserve all those sweet details, from crawling to sitting up, standing to walking. 

Milestone sessions are offered at my home studio, with the complete focus on your little one and the milestone they are in. My studio has many props and wardrobe items for you to choose from to create the session of your dreams. If you would like to style the session yourself, that is ok too, we can walk through all the details during your consultation call and create something magical. 

Since your baby's health is of utmost importance to me, due to dietary restrictions and allergies, cakes are not include in cake smash sessions. If you would like to forego the cake all together, we can create gorgeous milestone sessions with my other foods such as spaghetti, watermelon, strawberries, etc. You dream it, we can make it happen!

frequently asked questions

Do you include the cake for cake smash milestone sessions?

when will we receive our images?

what should they wear?

do you travel?

what is required to book?

how can I get a quote?

My cake smash milestone sessions do not include the cake. With children having so many allergies to food, I feel more comfortable with you bringing the cake from a bakery (or home made) from someone you trust and know will be safe for your little one to eat. I do recommend staying away from cakes with a ton of food coloring, it stains clothing and skin and is very difficult to remove. 

You can expect your images back within 1-2 weeks after your session. I carefully choose the best images and edit with lots of love to make sure there is consistency throughout your entire gallery.

I recommend to stick with neutral, earthy tones as they never go out of style. They also go best with my editing and photography style. Once you book, you will receive a client portal with tons of information on what to wear, as well as guidance from me, with one on one calls. I also want to take as much stress as I can off of you, so I have a growing client closet of items for you to choose from for your session. 

I do and want to travel more outside of the state! There is a travel fee involved, but if you need me to travel to you, I am more than happy to do so. 

A nonrefundable session fee is required to hold your session date and time as well as a signed contract. The remainder of the collection fee is due the day of the session. 

Reach out and I will walk you through all of your options. Can't wait to meet you!

"she is so gifted and wonderful to work with."

Deja took the most AMAZING photographs of my 2 year old niece! She not only got her to smile beautifully and naturally at the camera, but Deja also captured fantastic (and heartwarming) candid shots when even mom didn't know the camera was on. She is so gifted and wonderful to work with!
