SITTER Sessions

Frequently Asked Questions

The best time to book a sitter session is when your baby can sit up confidently without support but isn’t quite crawling yet. This usually happens between 6 to 9 months, depending on your baby’s development. These sweet in-between months are perfect for capturing adorable, personality-filled portraits at our Brooklyn photography studio near Windsor Terrace.

No worries at all! If your baby is already crawling, we’ll adapt the session to match their movement and energy. With thoughtful setups and age-appropriate props, we’ll still capture beautiful milestone images full of curiosity and joy—just as they are in this stage.

Your baby is ready for a sitter session when they show early sitting skills, such as propping themselves up in a “tripod” position using their hands for support. As they progress, they’ll start sitting more steadily with less wobbling. Other signs include showing interest in their surroundings, smiling frequently, and engaging with toys or people, all of which make for beautiful and expressive photos.

The best time for a sitter session is when your baby is well-rested and happy—typically after their first nap. This ensures we capture them at their most cheerful and relaxed state.

Yes! While the focus is on your baby, family is always welcomed 🙂 Parents, siblings, grandparents- whoever you’d like! No additional fees. These images are a beautiful way to preserve the love and connection of this special stage in your family’s story.

Yes! Many parents pre-book their sitter sessions at least 2-3 months in advance, especially if they want to secure a spot. Together we choose a tentative date based on when your baby is likely to reach the sitting stage, and we adjust once closer to the date.

Sitter sessions are generally 45-90 minutes. We don’t like to put pressure and set a limit on your time in the studio. However, each slot is about 2 hours from entrance to exit. This gives enough time for breaks, cuddles, feeding and whatever your baby needs to be comfortable.

At our Brooklyn photography studio, we provide a beautifully curated wardrobe with over 30 baby outfit options for sitter sessions. Each piece is thoughtfully selected for comfort, style, and how well it photographs in our studio. From soft knits to classic neutrals, our collection makes it easy to dress your baby without the stress of shopping. You’re also welcome to bring a special outfit from home if you’d like to personalize the session.
