Barrett's 4 Month Old Milestone Session by Debby Ditta Photography of Tomball - Houston Texas

It was only four months ago that baby Barrett was here for his newborn session.  Not much has changed for ME physically (maybe a few holiday pounds unfortunately), but so much has changed for Barrett.  Not only has he doubled in size, he's so alert and acting like a 4 month old.  He is a champion of tummy time, chews on his hands, and can be so smiley (when he's got a full tummy).  Below is a few memories from the newborn session and the comparison of how big boy he is now.

Did I call your 4 month old baby moody?  Yes, I did.... The four month old session is the fastest of all the sessions at usually 20-30 minutes.  I schedule an hour just in case baby needs a milk or Mommy break.  In the top image of Barrett on the white backdrop, he's DONE.  He wants nothing to do with me and my itsy bitsy spider song anymore.  He needs his Mommy and some milk.  We took about a 15 minute milk break and it was like he was a new man.  That's all he needed to be a happy baby again.  The four month baby can go through all the emotions during their session and usually do.  I have to act fast.  

 The many moods of the four month old baby.

I just happened to be at the right place and right time to catch baby digging for gold.  Mommy said she will show this one on display at his wedding one day.

The typical 4 month session begins with Mommy, Daddy, and baby once more with the studio backdrop.  After about 5 minutes of family in the session, we photograph baby one more time on the beanbag (baby on the white backdrop).  Since baby will be rolling and crawling soon, it's the last time to be on the beanbag.

I have several padded floordrops to choose from that replica hardwoods.  I photograph whatever stage baby is in developmentally.  Some babies at the 4 month session cannot hold up their head when on their tummy, some babies are rolling all over, it all depends on the baby.  Since most babies are not sitting independently at the 4 month session ( I've only seen one baby that could sit at this session in the last 15 years), I mostly photograph from an angle above and avoid props.  This session is all about simplicity (remember the moody baby phase I was telling you about).

Happy first birthday Laiken! One year old cake smash session

Isn't she a beauty?  Her eyes are the bluest.  Laiken is as sweet as she is pretty.  She even let me hold her at the end of the session, we are good friends now :)

On the way to the session, there were patches of rain everywhere.  I think it was 60% rain chance, but I was still hopeful that our location would work and be dry.  Well...it worked out... not even one drop of rain.  We had these great clouds to provide shade for us.

Sometimes at the one year session little babies act like ... babies.  Laiken on the other hand was the biggest sweetie-pie.  So happy to play peek-a-boo and smile for me.  She also REALLY likes cake.  Scroll all the way down the blog and you'll see what I mean... cake monster :)

Meet Kendall . Newborn baby girl at 5 days old

This is Kendall at five days new.  Isn't she a beauty?  She was snuggly and sweet for her newborn session.  I caught several smiles on her.  Her mother brought the shabby chic vintage doll carriage to the session for baby girl to be photographed in.  It was a toy she played with as a little girl.  Congratulations to you all on the newest part of the family, I loved taking pictures of your little doll!

He's just a little bit happy to have a baby sister :).  He's in LOVE, I can tell.
