Jack | 3 Months - Washington, DC Baby Photographer

People contact me sometimes concerned that their baby is "too old" to have their photos taken. It's true that those sleepy newborn poses can only really be achieved in the first couple of weeks after a baby is born, but by no means are babies too old to be photographed after that! No matter what the age - whether they are 2 weeks, 2 months, or 12 months old - our babies are still our babies and those fleeting moments should be preserved. Handsome Jack's mom contacted me when he was almost 8 weeks old - several weeks outside of the typical newborn photography window, but still amazing and adorably handsome as can be.

We discussed how an older baby's session is different, but still wonderful, and decided to wait a few weeks more to take his photos when he began smiling more often. It's not often that I get the opportunity to do lifestyle sessions or photograph 3 month olds, so getting to do both in one session was such a treat. Little Jack  had such fun with his parents and I had a wonderful time meeting all of them.

I hope you all had a wonderful first Mother's Day weekend together!
