St. Cloud, MN Children’s Birthday Photographer | Gemma’s 2 Year Birthday Session

Although the most popular birthday photography package at Tiny Hearts Studio is definitely the one year cake smash, I love celebrating other birthdays with kiddos too! It was so much fun to have Miss Gemma in my St. Cloud studio for a 2 year birthday session!

We’ve all heard of the terrible twos, but actually, 2 years old can be a really fun age as well. Children are becoming more independent and talking more, and they love to play and pretend! I certainly had a great time with Gemma. And she enjoyed playing with her balloons and testing out poses on a couple of the studio’s wicker chairs. I find that keeping things flexible and child-led makes for a fun photo experience for everyone!

If you want to get professional photos of your child on a regular basis (and you should!), annual birthday pictures can be the perfect way to do it. Upcoming birthdays are an automatic reminder to schedule your child’s photoshoot. (These pictures also make wonderful invitations or gifts!)

As a professional St. Cloud, MN children’s birthday photographer, I’d love to help you celebrate this special time in your child’s life—and make sure you have those memories to cherish forever! Contact Tiny Hearts Studio today to book your session!

St. Cloud, MN Baby Photographer | Finn’s 9 Month Milestone Session

Talk about a happy baby! I don’t think Finn stopped smiling once during his 9 month milestone session! What a cutie. Loved those sparkling blue eyes and fluffy hair that stuck up everywhere!

Although most people think of newborn and one-year sessions as the big ones, I also love doing those in-between milestones at 3, 6, and 9 months. So much happens in baby’s first year that these are honestly huge milestones too! Smiling, sitting up, crawling, maybe even standing and taking a few steps on their own—those accomplishments should be recorded.

Like most babies, Finn loves being outside. Even though we were doing these baby and family pictures in the studio, we brought a little of the outdoors in by creating a gardening and camping setup. I think this kiddo is going to have a green thumb when he gets older!

It was wonderful to have some extended family join us for these photos! We got some great baby and family pictures. Oh, and Mom and Dad had a surprise to share too. What a great way to wrap up an exciting 9 month milestone session—with the announcement that Finn was about to be promoted to big brother!
