Baby session 6-9 months

Baby photo session before the first birthday in Orleans, France

Baby photo sessions, often called sitter sessions, usually take place between 6 and 11 months, when your little one can sit safely on their own or move into a sitting position by themselves.

It is an adorable age to photograph. Your baby is no longer a newborn, but is still fully in that baby stage, before the first steps.

At this age, babies often have their first very recognizable expressions, spontaneous smiles, little bursts of laughter and all the gestures that are uniquely theirs.

The session is lively and natural, created to capture your child personality at this exact moment of the first year.

What should you prepare for the baby photo session?

You can of course bring a little outfit you especially love for your baby, but most of what is needed for the session is already available at the studio.

I provide several small outfits suited to babies of this age, chosen to be comfortable and beautiful in photos.

Different props are also available to vary the images and create a soft, natural atmosphere: little rattan chairs, wooden toys, a rocking horse and other pieces adapted to baby sessions.

The goal is to keep the images simple and timeless, while letting your child personality shine throughout the session.

A moment to share as a family in Orleans, France

Even if this session is mainly dedicated to your baby, we can of course create a few photos with parents and siblings.

These family images are often very precious because they keep a memory of this time when your child is still so small, surrounded by the people who already love them.

We can take a few minutes during the session for simple, natural family photos full of connection and softness.

I guide you gently so these photos feel natural and harmonious, even if you are not used to being in front of the camera.

Connection moments

Breastfeeding photos can be included

If you wish, we can also create a few breastfeeding photos during the session.

These images are often very emotional because they capture a unique bond between a mother and her baby. Breastfeeding is a precious season worth keeping as a memory.

These photos always remain simple, natural and full of softness, with complete respect for your privacy and only if you want them.
