Milestone
photography
Those babies grow up fast! In the first year alone, your tiny newborn becomes a curious baby and then a wobbly toddler. Milestone sessions are here to help busy parents freeze time — to remember the moments when they first arrived, when they started sitting up, crawling, and of course, that unforgettable first birthday. Milestone photography is all about capturing the magic of each stage before it slips by.

Frequently Asked Questions
The length of the session depends on how many people are joining the session, how many sets, your vision, budget, etc. While I do offer mini sessions starting from 30 minutes long, recommended time for milestone session in studio, or on location is 1 hour long, especially if cake smash or milk bath is included.
Studio milestone sessions are recommended and preferred by most families, especially for cake smash photography and milk bath sessions. The studio offers a clean, comfortable, and weather-protected environment—ideal for babies who are crawling, cruising, or newly mobile. Outdoor milestone sessions may be available upon request, depending on your child’s age and session goals.
Studio baby and kid milestone sessions can accommodate multiple outfits. Outdoor sessions typically allow one to two outfits with advance planning. Sessions are held at one location (studio or outdoor). A second location or studio + outdoor combo may be available for an additional fee.
Absolutely! The more the merrier! Large groups might need more time to make sure everyone has their time to shine!
That’s normal. I’m a baby & kid-whisperer and we always get beautiful moments — even with shy, spirited, or wiggly little ones. The best plan is to bring your positive vibe and for everyone to enjoy the moments.
Typically 2-3 weeks after the session date. Rush processing is available for a fee if needed.
All of your photos will come with Mini Anna’s signature edits. I don’t deliver raw or unprocessed files because I believe every image deserves to be finished with care and presented as a little piece of art. Additional retouching (skin perfection/ blemish removal, body shaping, etc) can be requested. Fee varies depending on complexity and number of photos.
Most families invest between $750 and $3000 for their Baby/ Kid Milestone sessions depending on image selection and artwork choices.
