Little Joys, Big Smiles: A Baby Girl Sitter Session at Harpsy Portraiture



I am so excited to share some adorable images from this precious baby girl Sitter Session we captured recently. Sitter Sessions hold a special place in our hearts as we have the privilege of documenting the precious moments when tiny bundles of joy transition from infancy to toddlerhood. Especially when we have our newborn session clients return and we get to see them and how much they've grown.


Meet our Adorable Star: Baby Olivia 👧


We had the pleasure of capturing Olivia's newborn session and couldn't wait to get her back in the studio for this stylized Sitter Session. At 9 months old, she was an absolute bundle of cuteness and curiosity. We couldn't wait to capture her captivating smiles and playful expressions. 💖


Creating the Perfect Setup 📷

To set the stage for this baby girl Sitter Session, we decided to design her session around her bright and vibrant personality. We believe in letting the little ones shine, so we kept the setting simple, allowing her infectious joy to take center stage.


Outfits and Props 👗

One big key to a successful Sitter Session is finding the right outfits and props that bring out the child's character and charm. For Olivia's session, we chose a few outfits from our Client Closet that matched her vibrant spirit. We also incorporated a few theme-appropriate props like a floral bonnet and our yellow moon to add an extra touch of whimsy to her photos.

Making it fun!


Our Sitter Sessions are included in our First Year plan and the perfect opportunity to capture your little one's tiny personality midway through their first year. This is a great opportunity to allow your little one to see and interact with us again, helping create a fun environment for your baby and creating a relationship your baby remembers and will (hopefully!) encourage them to enjoy their Cake Smash Session even more when the time comes.


However, children at this age are developing their own feelings and thoughts. Whether we've worked together previously, or not, we always want to ensure your little one is having as much fun as possible during a professional photoshoot. That's why we include fun elements to add to your setup and theme.


For Miss Olivia's session, we added actual strawberries she was able to eat and enjoy during her session. This allowed her to feel happy and comfortable and allowed her personality to shine.



A Sitter Session is not just about photography; it's about celebrating the milestones and the unique personality of each child. We feel privileged to be part of these cherished moments and to create lasting memories for families. If you have a little one reaching their sitting milestone, consider booking a Sitter Session with us. If you've scheduled a Newborn Session with us and you're interested in our First Year Plan, reach out before your little one is sitting so we can start planning and get you on the calendar.

Either way, we'd love to be a part of your journey and help you capture the precious moments of your child's early years.
