A milestone photoshoot is a specialized photography session designed to beautifully document and celebrate the various stages of your baby’s growth from 9 months to 36 months of age. These sessions capture significant moments such as your baby's first attempts at sitting up, their first steps, as well as the cherished milestones of their 1st and 2nd birthdays. Each session is crafted to preserve these precious memories in stunning photographs that you'll cherish for a lifetime.
You can refer to our Welcome Guide to prepare to your session. Just before the session, please feed and change your baby to minimize disruptions. To avoid any unnecessary stress, try to schedule vaccinations or other potential stressors after the session.
Any visible baby acne or scratches will be carefully removed during the final Artistic Retouching process. Each package includes a set number of retouched images—refer to the price list for details. Additional retouched images are available upon request. If your child has a rash or severe dryness, it's advisable to wait until any medication takes effect before scheduling a session. In such cases, rescheduling for five days after the doctor's visit is recommended. If you're unsure, feel free to reach out and send a photo of your baby for verification.
With 15 years of experience photographing newborns and babies, I have honed techniques to soothe them and capture their smiles. It's normal for babies to get fussy during the photoshoot, and we'll take breaks to change, feed, and comfort them until they calm down. I recommend bringing a pacifier to help soothe your baby. While it's rare for a baby to cry throughout the entire session, if it happens, we'll happily reschedule.
We offer an extensive selection of baby outfits and props for you to choose from. Our Studio is fully equipped with a changing station and a variety of props and outfits to ensure a comfortable and unique experience for your baby. If you have a specific prop or sentimental item you'd like included, feel free to bring it along. Please bring your own changing kit and feeding kit, white baby puffs snacks, and a pacifier to help soothe your baby during the session.
Le Studio's calendar fills up quickly, so we recommend booking your session in advance to secure your preferred date. If you're undecided on a package, you can opt for our Baby Milestone Retainer to reserve your spot while you decide. Appointments can be rescheduled free of charge up to 48 hours before the shoot.
There’s a space to relax and have coffee or tea while staying close to your child during the session. If your baby gets fussy, we may suggest playing their favorite YouTube video, singing a preferred song, or offering a special treat, white baby puffs are the most photogenic treats for photoshoots. I'll also ensure a calm yet joyful atmosphere for a successful photoshoot.
I have an extended selection of baby outfits and props to create the stylized photos that you see on my portfolio, but please feel free to bring different options. You can shop online for “one-year-old photoshoot outfits” For your family portrait, please focus on bringing a few matching or harmonizing tops. For example, you and your partner can wear cashmere sweaters, t-shirts, or blouses in a similar tone. Off-white, grey, pastel colors, or a simple black generally work well. Please refer to the portfolio for inspiration!
Yes, parents, siblings, family members, or pets can be included in the session, when you book your session, please add the “Family Add On” to your Package.

If I could give 6 stars I would because we had the best time yesterday during my babies cake smash photoshoot. Léa was on point, knows exactly what she's doing, and she did great with my child. Her assistant was wonderful as well! I can't wait to see the photos and I'll definitely be going here again for my future family photos!
I have been photographing my three children since they were born! Léa did a fantastic job of following my family, expanding over the years and capturing beautiful family photos. During our photoshoots, we always had so much fun! We used to go to the studio between prospect Hight and downtown Brooklyn. Last year I went to Le Studio with my newborn baby girl for the traditional photo session and it was amazing. We came back again last month for her first birthday to do a milestone and smash cake photo session in Léa's new location in Red Hook. She was as amazing as always and the photos exceeded our expectations!
