Baby Parker’s Milestone Shoot

I had the absolute joy of photographing the sweetest little guy, Parker, in my studio for his milestone baby photoshoot. Now, fun fact—Parker is actually my cousin’s son, which (according to Google) makes me his aunty once removed. I’m totally claiming that title!

From the moment he arrived, Parker was all smiles, chubby cheeks, and the most delicious baby rolls. Seriously, is there anything better than baby chub? He was just the happiest little bundle, and I could have easily spent the entire day just soaking up his adorable giggles and squishy cuddles.

Capturing these precious milestones is one of my favorite things about being a photographer. Babies grow and change so incredibly fast—one minute they’re tiny newborns with curled-up fingers and toes, and before you know it, they’re sitting up, clapping, and flashing those big, gummy grins. That first year goes by in the blink of an eye, which is why I always encourage parents to document as many moments as possible. These are the photos you’ll look back on years from now, remembering just how tiny they once were.

Parker’s session was an absolute dream, and I’m so excited about how his photos turned out. I know his family will treasure them forever, and I feel so lucky to have been the one to capture this special time in his life.
