Six Month Sitting Up Session: Valentine Theme

Six Month Sitting Up Session: Valentine Theme

Your baby’s six-month milestone is a special one! They’re sitting up, exploring their world, and showing off those adorable smiles. A Six Month Sitting Up Session: Valentine Theme is the perfect way to capture this stage with charm and sweet details. At Gilmore Studios, we love bringing these heartwarming moments to life. Creating portraits that reflect your baby’s personality and the love you feel.

Why Choose a Valentine Theme for a Six Month Session?

February is the month of love, making it a perfect time for a Six Month Sitting Up Session: Valentine Theme. Think soft pinks, reds, and heart-shaped props that add a festive, yet timeless touch.

Your baby’s newfound ability to sit up independently makes this session even more memorable. They’re curious, giggly, and full of personality, giving us plenty of opportunities to capture their sweetest expressions. Plus, Valentine-themed outfits—like heart-patterned onesies or little red bowties—add a playful touch to the photos.

Photography Tips for a Six Month Sitting Up Session: Valentine Theme

If you’re a photographer looking to recreate this adorable theme, here are a few tips to make the session a success:

  • Incorporate Simple Props: Heart-shaped garlands, rose petals, or cute stuffed animals can add charm without distracting from your baby’s natural cuteness.
  • Capture Candid Moments: Let the baby play with soft, safe props. These spontaneous interactions often create the most heartwarming photos.
  • Focus on the Details: Tiny hands holding a heart plushie or baby feet peeking out from under a cozy blanket add variety to your gallery.

What a night!
The Assistance League Newport Mesa Ball was all the best things — beautiful, lively, and full of so many people coming together for a good cause. The dresses were gorgeous too!
It’s always such an honor to capture an event that does so much good for our community.
Thank you for letting me press pause on this night, so you can remember how special it really was.

Celebrating L + E! Their engagement party was full of sweet moments, laughter, and the kind of little glances that remind you what it’s all about.

They really do bring out the best in each other and that’s my favorite thing to capture. L’s parents went above and beyond to make it a memorable day for them

✨ Ever wondered what a metal print looks like?
This video is a quick peek at one of my favorite ways to print your images.
Bold, vibrant, and ready to hang…metal prints make your photos stand out in the best way.
Your memories deserve to live on your walls, not just your phone.

A lot of parents don’t realize how sweet (and practical!) a quick tub session can be. Not only does it help clean up all that frosting, but babies love it — the splashes and giggles make for some of the cutest photos from the whole session.
It’s the perfect way to end on a happy note, with fresh, squeaky-clean memories to go with the messy ones! It’s just water - so make sure to give a real bath once you get home 😃

Here’s my secret…don’t fight it. You play, you laugh, you follow their lead.
The best photos happen when everyone’s relaxed, a little bit silly, and free to be themselves.
Real is what you’ll want to remember later.
