In my experience, shooting during the first few weeks is ideal. During these early days, babies tend to sleep more and curl up in those naturally cozy positions we all adore in newborn portraits. Make sure to reach out and get on the calendar before the baby is born. We want to have some wiggle room with timing once the little one arrives.
The open environment at Back Bay invites your kids to explore, walk, and twirl safely. I’m there to guide you into natural poses, creating moments that are genuine rather than staged. The golden hour (right before sunset) is the best time for a session at this location.
From photographing many first birthday sessions I’ve found that three to four weeks before your baby turns one is the sweet spot. Having it done ahead of time means you get to enjoy the session instead of squeezing it in. Plus you can have the binges back in time for a party. 

Also…if you are doing a custom backdrop you want to give us some time to create it and get all the pieces in the studio (which is usually 3-4 weeks).
My heart is full today. My youngest Cody is 17. I’m soaking up every moment I have left with him at home. Cody - I love being your mom. You are so kind and loving and always thinking of others. I miss your “2 puppies” and “snazzy” but love all the new things you do now. You are amazing! I love you infinity times infinity ❤️
