A guide to capturing your baby’s most important moments with Family- & Newborn photography Studio Angelie in Varde, close to Esbjerg, Billund, Ringkøbing-Skjern, Blåvand, Henne Strand.

Every stage of your baby’s first year is filled with incredible changes and precious moments that pass by in the blink of an eye. Milestone photography is the perfect way to document these fleeting stages, preserving them as lifelong memories. But when are the best times to schedule these sessions? At Studio Angelie, I recommend capturing your baby’s journey through these key milestones:

1. Newborn Session (5-14 Days Old)

The newborn stage is pure magic—your baby is still so tiny, curled up just as they were in the womb. Their delicate features, soft wisps of hair, tiny fingers and toes, and those sweet sleepy expressions won’t last long. This session is all about documenting your baby’s first days in the world—the overwhelming love, the gentle cuddles, and the way they fit so perfectly in your arms. These images will always take you back to that feeling of wonder and new beginnings.

📷 Why It’s Special: These early days are fleeting. Newborn photography allows you to hold onto these first moments forever, preserving the pure innocence and overwhelming love that fills your heart.

2. Three to Four Months: The First Smiles

Around three to four months, your baby starts engaging with the world in new ways. This stage is all about the first smiles, adorable expressions, and increasing interaction with their surroundings. Babies at this age begin to lift their heads, making for precious tummy-time shots.

📷 Why It’s Special: This milestone captures the moment when your baby’s personality begins to shine. Their wide-eyed wonder and giggles make for incredibly joyful and heartwarming images.

3. Six to Seven Months: Sitting Up and Curiosity

By six months, your baby has changed so much! This is when their personality starts to shine through—bright, curious eyes, adorable giggles, and chubby little hands reaching for yours. They might be sitting up for the first time, exploring their world with fascination, and responding to your voice with the sweetest smiles. This session beautifully captures the playful, joyful energy of this halfway point in their first year.

📷 Why It’s Special: Your baby is now showing more independence, making eye contact, and interacting in the cutest ways. This is a golden age for milestone photography, capturing a stage that’s full of charm and personality.

4. One Year: The Big Celebration

Your baby’s first year is a major milestone worth celebrating! Whether it’s a simple portrait session, or a fun outdoor shoot, one-year sessions are a beautiful way to capture your little one’s transition from baby to toddler. Your baby’s first year has been an incredible journey, and their one-year session is all about celebrating how far they’ve come! Whether they’re taking their first steps, clapping their hands this session is filled with energy and joy. It’s a time to reflect on the love and laughter of the past year and create images that you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

📷 Why It’s Special: The first birthday marks the end of an incredible year of growth. From those first steps to joyful claps, this session encapsulates all the excitement, love, and accomplishments of your baby’s first year.

Why You Shouldn’t Miss These Sessions

Milestone sessions allow you to document your baby’s incredible journey from newborn to toddlerhood. Each stage brings something unique, and these professional portraits become cherished keepsakes that you and your child will treasure forever. Life moves quickly, but photographs have the power to pause time, letting you relive these beautiful moments again and again.

A Year of Firsts

Tiny fingers, tiny toes,
A world of wonder as you grow.
The first sweet smile, the sleepy yawn,
The way you fit within my arms.

Six months in, your eyes shine bright,
Giggling, reaching, pure delight.
Curious hands explore the air,
Every moment, beyond compare.

Then comes one—your very first year,
Clapping hands and joyful cheer.
Steps so wobbly, laughter free,
A heart so full of memories.

Each milestone, a fleeting treasure,
Captured in frames, held forever.
For time may pass, but love stays near,
Through photographs, year after year.

Why It’s Special: A Once-in-a-Lifetime Journey

Your baby’s first year is a whirlwind of change—tiny fingers grasping yours, sleepy newborn snuggles, the first infectious giggles, and those wobbly first steps. These moments pass in the blink of an eye, and before you know it, your little one has grown before your eyes.
