Oh, goodness! This little girl is just the sweetest, squishiest, most perfect little cherub. You might remember her sweet newborn images here and here. I didn’t think it was possible for her to get any cuter, but I don’t mind being wrong one little bit:). At 4 months, she is such smiley, darling girl.
I often get emails from new parents who missed getting portraits done during that initial newborn phase, asking when they should book a session. I usually recommend waiting until the fourth month or so, when baby can push up on her tummy with a steady head, make eye contact, dazzle us with smiles, and sit up with assistance. Another great option is around the 6-month mark when he or she can sit up independently. As you can see below, waiting for these physical and emotional milestones makes for a great portrait session:).





The headbands and hats for this session came from a great Etsy shop the belle and the beau. Check them out, the have some darling accessories for boys and girls!
Thanks for coming to play, Baby Lily! I had such a fun time:).
