Some babies arrive for their session ready to perform like they’ve been rehearsing in the cot for weeks. Savannah was absolutely one of those babies.

She brought the big curious eyes, the sweet little smiles, the squishy cheeks, and that lovely “I’m just going to sit here and be adorable, thanks” energy. And then, as if she hadn’t already won the room, she had the most magical detail of all: two different coloured eyes.

Honestly, unfairly cute. Some babies get lashes. Some get dimples. Savannah said, “I’ll take one of everything, please.”

Her sitter session was soft, simple, and full of the kind of tiny moments that make this age so special. The way she looked right at the camera. The way her expressions changed from serious little thinker to cheeky grin in half a second. The way she sat proudly, like she’d just unlocked a new baby superpower.

And that’s exactly why sitter sessions are so loved. They catch that sweet stage between newborn snuggles and first birthday chaos, when little personalities are popping out like toast.

Even better, there’s a beautiful offer to know about: When you book a cake smash or 12-month session, you can receive a complimentary sitter session including 5 digital images.

How to make the most of a sitter session

A little prep can help the session feel relaxed and fun. Nothing complicated, promise. No one needs to bring a spreadsheet. Babies can sense that.

Here are a few simple tips.

Choose a happy time of day

A fed, rested baby is usually more comfortable. Sessions often work best when they’re planned around nap times, not squeezed into the danger zone right before sleep. I normally schedule 12 noon but we're flexible.

Bring a favourite comfort item

A small toy, dummy, or blanket can help baby settle if they need a little reassurance. It doesn’t have to be in every photo.

Don’t stress about smiles

Smiles are lovely, but serious faces are beautiful too. Some babies give big laughs. Some give thoughtful looks. Both deserve to be remembered.

Frequently asked questions

What age is best for a sitter session?

The best time is usually when baby can sit safely on their own but isn’t crawling away too quickly yet. For many babies, that falls around six to nine months, but every little one is different.

What is included with the complimentary offer?

When you book a cake smash or 12-month session, you can receive a complimentary sitter session. It’s a beautiful way to capture the stage before the big first birthday celebration.

Does my baby need to smile for the photos to be good?

Not at all. Smiles are gorgeous, but thoughtful looks, curious faces, and tiny serious expressions are just as precious. A good gallery shows your baby’s real personality.
