Best Baby Photographer near me Mechanicsburg PA

When you think of baby photos, you probably think of new newborn photos, right? Newborn portraits are precious, of course - seeing your adorable little one, all curled up and sleepy, embarking on their epic journey of life. But there’s another baby milestone photo session that isn’t talked about as much but that you’ll be so thrilled you did: a Mechanicsburg PA sitter session. That’s how I took the photos of the beautiful baby girl featured in this blog, so let’s talk about why parents love these photo shoots so much!

Your Baby is Alert but Not Too Mobile

One of the greatest joys of parenthood is seeing your child develop their one-of-a-kind personality and dreaming of who they’ll be when they grow up. A sitter session gives you portraits from when you’re first starting to discover who your baby is.

In your baby’s newborn days, they spend most of their time sleeping and eating as they continue their incredibly important work of developing. But by the time they hit the milestone of sitting up on their own (around 6 to 9 months on average, but this varies, of course), their curiosity about the world is really awakening and they’re starting to let that budding personality come out. What a perfect time to forever preserve these moments when you’re seeing sparkles of who your baby is becoming!

As an added bonus, your baby is not yet walking and crawling all over the room at this stage, so you and I don’t need to chase them and put them back on the set during the photo shoot. Take advantage of this simplicity while you can!

You Have Mid-Year Memories from Your Mechanicsburg PA Sitter Session

For a lot of families, the two big photo shoots they have for their baby are newborn photos and first birthday photos. As wonderful as those two sessions are, there’s so much that happens in between them! A sitter session is a perfect way to capture a little sliver of time during your baby’s first year to help complete the picture of this amazing year in your baby’s photo album.
