Gold Coast QLD Baby Photographer | Milestone Session

Gold Coast QLD Baby Photographer | Milestone Session

9 Months Already!

Can you believe Arnhem-Sol is already 9 months old! This years has truely gone so fast and I can’t stress enough the importance of getting at least one professional photoshoot done with your little one. If you’re anything like me, you want to preserve this time as much as possible! And the best way to do it is by capturing the moment. To have something to hold and look back on is so magical.

We were inspired to do this milestone session after a cakesmash session that I did earlier. I had a bunch of balloons left over and thought it would be cute to do a dressed splash bath. So I tied the bouquet of balloons to the little tub and dressed Arnhem in her little white romper. Safe to say she loved it!

So much splashing and laughing! We captured the cutest smiles. Arnhem, now being 9 months old was throwing some bold moves in there! Pulling herself up and standing had me on my toes. Of course Luca was there to spot her.

Safety

Safety is our number one priority at Dreamy Moon Photography. In fact we just recently updated our first aid training with Tiny Hearts Education. Tiny Hearts Education is an amazing resource for both parents and professionals, bringing real life first aid situations and applying the skills needed to address them in their courses.

But back to the milestone shoot! We captured some very sweet photos and wrapped it up with some cuddles….

Mermaid QLD Newborn Photography | Mini Session Vs Custom Photography

Let’s discuss all about the differences a mini photography session will get you versus a custom session, tailored towards you and your needs!

Hello! Welcome, I am Tiana, founder of Dreamy Moon Photography… I specialise in creating custom, heirloom art pieces for your family to cherish for years to come. But with all that aside let’s get straight into the blog!

Okay, Okay… Starting off with the Minis! Mini Sessions are great, they are a lot of fun. Fairly fast paced and a great taster into the Dreamy Moon Experience. This type of sessions is perfect for you if you are okay with a specific theme, want something short and fast, are flexible with dates and times. These session are generally discounted or offered in a cheaper bundle and are only offered 1-2 times a year. For example Christmas Mini Sessions.

Now that we have talked about the mini sessions, let’s talk about why a customer session might be a better fit for your families needs. Custom sessions, well they are completely tailored to you, “the name says it all.” There is so much more flexibility when it comes to a custom session. You have more of a say on location/ studio, date & time (depending on availability), theme, props, outfits and so much more! Dreamy Moon Photography will work along side you to create a unique experience. These sessions generally cost more and offer the full luxury experience.

So, there you have it! Mini Session Vs Custom Photography, which one would you choose?

The day of the Christmas Mini Markets:

We had so much fun photographing everyone’s Christmas minis at Hide and Seek children’s markets. It was so lovely meeting all of the children and their families and of course making incredible memories to finish up 2022.

The day started quite early at 6:30 but gave the Dreamy Moon Team plenty of time to set up and make everything perfect to start taking pictures at 8:00.

We have a variety of families come through and get their Christmas pictures taken. Enjoying use of our Christmas client closet.

Our first clients were absolutely adorable! Little cousins all dressed up in their Christmas outfits. Once’s warmed up they were full of little giggles. We got the sweetest little family photos of them! All dressed up in their little cohesive outfits was big brother Cooper and his baby sister Milly. Capturing the biggest smiles!

We photographed the most sweetest little siblings. Dressed in the most beautiful maroon Christmas dress and the little crochet baby onesie from our client closet. Florence and her brother Ezy were making every swoon with their cute expressions!
