Hey there, thanks for stopping by. I am Becky the owner of Finch & Mae Photography in Rio, WI. Finch & Mae Photography Studio is a maternity, newborn and baby photographer.

Milestone sessions are honestly so important to me. I love seeing babies change throughout their first year. Over the past few years, parents have been telling me how much they enjoy these sessions. Seeing the personality change, how big their baby has grown, the smiles. I have even had a dad tell me that he can hear his baby laugh just by looking at the picture.

These sessions are truly just so fun and honestly, they are super quick. Avery’s session was less than an hour and we did numerous outfits. Do I do numerous outfits for every session? The answer is simple, it depends on the baby. Some babies are completely chill and are willing to do anything where others are more reserved and there is no wrong. The purpose of a milestone session is to capture your baby with where they are at currently in their life. Some babies are completely aware of strangers and that they are not a person that they see on a regular basis where others just don’t care.

A common question I get is, do I provide the outfits? I offer a full mini client wardrobe for babies newborn -2. Your baby is of course more than welcome to use any of these outfits for their session. In fact, most parents have me pick the backdrop colors and outfits for their session.

What happens if my baby cries? I get this one a lot! Parents get concernd that their baby may cry during their session and I can’t say that it doesn’t happen or it won’t happen. At this age, babies are extremely aware of who is not mom and dad. What we do to keep baby happy is play music, we dance, bring snacks such as puffs, bring a favorite toy. I almost always get at least enough images for a full gallery and some of the sad faces wind up being mom and dad’s absolute favorite images in the gallery.

See you in a few months for you cake smash, Avery
