Sophie's parents Justin & Amelia booked a Baby's First Year session with us.  I absolutely love when we get to plan and take photos for an entire year for a client. Our Baby's First Year sessions include maternity, newborn, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 1 year.  Usually the sessions last from 2-3 hours depending on the location.

Since we didn't get to blog about Sophie in the beginning, I'd like to share a few of my favorites of her over the past 4 photo sessions.  It has been an absolute joy to be able to share with her family how much she has grown over the past 9 months.  

Here are a few of my favorites:

Maternity 

We lucked out with Amelia's maternity photos.  Sophie came a little early and if I remember right, we got her maternity photos taken just in time before Sophie was welcomed into the world. 

Newborn

Welcome little Sophie!!!

For newborn photos we took photos in Justin & Amelia's home so as to create a very comfortable atmosphere for Sophie.

3 Months

For the 3 month photos we went to a variety of locations around downtown Des Moines. 

6 Month

Amelia & Justin had the great idea to visit the Blank Park Zoo for Sophie's 6 month photo session so we spent the morning walking around the zoo and documenting the family fun day.   Afterwards we went back to our in-home studio for some more photos.

What a cutie! Thank you Justin and Amelia for allowing us to be part of Sophie's 1st year!  I can't wait to post the photos from her 9 month session and her upcoming 1 year session.  :)
