6 Month In Home Motherhood Session | Greenwich Connecticut

This sweet 6 milestone session took place in my client’s Greenwich Connecticut home. I was so excited when this Momma reached out to me. She told me that had decided not to do newborn photos and now regretted not having captured that tiny newborn phase. Since we obviously can’t turn back time, she wanted to go ahead and book some milestone sessions to document the rest of her first year. I’m so honored to get to capture her baby growing this year!

She wanted to get a session done ASAP so we started with an in home session! My hair and makeup team headed to my client’s home to get her ready for her photos and I brought wardrobe options from the client closet with me for her to choose from. I love this peachy pink dress she chose to to wear.

Once she was ready to go we got baby dressed in this beautiful white heirloom bubble and started capturing the sweetness! I know I say this all the time, but I LOVE this age. It is my absolute favorite stage of babyhood.

For in home sessions, we almost always use the master bedroom and the nursery (as long as the light is good). We will also use a family room and sometimes even the kitchen! I love the intimate feeling of in home sessions and being able to capture you in the place you brought your baby home to. Truly special!

Enjoy!

Tucker's 8 Month Sitter Session | Connecticut Baby Photographer

Today I’m sharing my very last baby session before the virus hit and caused everything to shut down here in Connecticut. Mentally, the last 3 weeks have been pretty rough. I miss my clients and I miss snuggling their sweet babies. It breaks my heart that I’m not able to capture your newborns right now, but I promise that very soon we will capture the sweetest photos of your babies that your will treasure.

Meet Tucker. He is a doll baby. I’ve been photographing him since he was a young infant and have loved getting to know his Momma and watching him grow! I know they are going to be SO glad they documented his first year and have these beautiful images to look back on to remember all these fun stages.

We picked out several things from the client wardrobe for Tucker to wear for his milestone session. We did some cozy overalls (I love overalls on babies), a traditional light blue bubble, and a couple of diaper covers. I love to get some portraits showing all their sweet rolls!

Tucker was such a doll. These sitting up milestone sessions are always a favorite. Babies are just so happy and adorable at this stage.

Olivia is One - Field First Birthday Session in New Canaan Connecticut | Fairfield County Baby Photographer

We had so much fun celebrating Olivia’s first birthday at Waveny Park in New Canaan. This session included Mom and Dad as well to get some adorable images of the whole family celebrating this major milestone!

Mom and Olivia came to the studio in Darien, Connecticut prior to their session for the planning and styling consultation. During the consultation we discussed what location would best suit their family and the style they wanted for this session. We then selected outfits from the client closet that would work well with the field location that they chose. I love these pre-session consultations because it gives us the opportunity to get to know each other better and gives us both a huge sense of comfort going into the session itself!

I brought this adorable high chair to the field for a few “first birthday” style images and I just love how cute it was outside. Mom brought a GIANT balloon that we were going to use as well, but unfortunately it popped before we got to use it, but Olivia thought the balloon was really fun!

I love this this off white Henley Dad borrowed from the Client Wardrobe. It is my favorite shirt for men because it is a nice thick material and not stark white (which sometimes doesn’t photograph well outside). Olivia wore 2 of the most precious dresses from the Client Wardrobe. That dusty pink tulle dress has been a fan favorite for 1st birthdays this year.

Eliza's First Birthday Session and Cake Smash | Connecticut Baby Photographer

First Birthday’s are such an important milestone, not just for baby, but for Mom and Dad too! It means you MADE it- you survived what is arguably the most difficult year of your life haha! The sleep deprivation, the stress, the worry all of it culminates at the first birthday! Congratulations- you are now considered old pros at this baby thing!!!

The First Birthday really is a special time and you will remember it for the rest of your life. Having gorgeous portraits to freeze this moment in time is really a treasure!

When client’s request a First Birthday session, we always discuss whether we will do cake at the end. If we do, we save it for the very last thing (for obvious reasons! haha!). I have lots of sweet, simple props for my milestones includes a vintage white hair chair, a vintage rocking horse, and some pretty chairs. One year olds are SO curious about the world around them so to keep them interested in taking photos, we have to keep changing things up!

I do not provide the cake for cake smash sessions due to potential allergies, but I do suggest a mostly white cake (or even a “naked cake”). They photograph lovely and don’t stain like the colored icings. There are lots of bakeries around to order a cake, just be sure and specify what size you would like (if you want a small cake tell them it’s for a smash cake!).

I’m sharing Eliza’s session with you today! She is SUCH a pretty baby and was FULL of joy! Her Mom picked out this pink tulle dress from the Client Wardrobe and it was PERFECT on her! Mom also brought this sweet monogrammed diaper cover. I love how much variety we were able to get in such a short time!

Jack's 6 Month Milestone Session in Fairfield County Connecticut

Meet Jack - The cutest, happiest 6 month old baby ever! His 6 month milestone session at my photography studio in Connecticut was so much fun and gave me some major baby fever. This was my 2nd time to work with him and I just adore him (and his Momma!).

Jack wore 3 outfits during his milestone session. He borrowed this simple gray bubble romper from the Client Wardrobe and it was so cute on him. He also wore this traditional sailor suit that is very similar to outfits both his parents wore at their baby sessions. I love tying in special, memorable elements into these sessions.

Milestone sessions are such a great way to document your baby’s growth during the year. At 3 months, we start to get some good smiles, holding up there head, and tummy time pics. At 6 months, we get lots of gummy grins, pushing up, rolling, grabbing feet, and sitting up images. At 9 months we start to get to capture the crawling and cruising stage, and by 1 year we get standing and sometimes walking! These months with your baby FLY by and the are changing so fast that you often don’t notice until the time is gone. If you are interested in documenting your baby’s first year, check out my Baby’s First Year Membership. It is set up to do just that!

2 Year Old Surfer Baby Beach Milestone Session in Darien, CT

I’m excited to be showing you a glimpse of Jax’s 2 year milestone session from the beach in Darien, CT!

As a Mom of 2 who works from home, days can get kinda crazy…especially during the Summer when school is out! The evening of this session was one of those days! Beach sessions take place 1 hour before sunset, which is pretty late in the summer. So, my husband is usually home well before I leave for a session during the summer. Well, on this particular day, my husband had a rare meeting in NYC so he was commuting via train and his train got STUCK on the way home! He was stuck on the train and I had to leave for my session! Of course I couldn’t get a sitter 15 minutes before I needed one (though I tried) and I was really at a loss for what to do! It was super stressful for me because I HATE being late (and in fact, had never been late for a session prior to this one!). But I stayed in constant contact with my clients letting them know my ETA and put together a little thank you gift for them! My clients were THE SWEETEST people ever and were so understanding.

Two year session are always so much fun! You never know what they are going to do and they are a bit to young to understand “stand still and smile” so I just let them do their thing and document them being two! We move around a lot and keep trying new things to keep them from getting bored! He was a little unsure about the sand at first, but then decided he really loved throwing rocks into the water! I love his beautiful hair and his style went so well for the surfer beach baby look!

Connecticut Baby Photographer | Harry's 8 months Sitter Session in Darien, CT by Kristin Wood Photography

I am LOVING these Simply Baby mini sessions that I offered this month. I adore babies (I mean, who doesn’t?!) and these sessions give me all the feels. I could cry tears of pure joy during these sessions. They are so cute at this stage- sitting up but not crawling. Doing all the cute babbles, grabbing their feet, rolling over. It’s just adorable overload. The Client Closet is well stocked in simple baby outfits that are perfect for these sessions so you don’t even have to worry about what your baby will wear! Just come to the studio in their pjs and pick out an outfit! So easy! To learn more about baby Milestone Sessions click here.

Harry was such a cutie pie during his session. He was so happy and curious. I could have played with him all day.
