Baby’s First Year Portrait Packages

I’m not sure if it’s my love of photographing babies or my strong head for business, but Pixels offers a one year baby package for those who want to chronicle the first year of their child’s life.
Are you in?
I am ALWAYS.
Truth be told, the advantages are both business and personal…

There are two reasons I offer this package:
First, new moms know that they will be busy with adjusting and sleep deprivation, joy and memory-making, and allllllll the rest of it during the first year. Having scheduled professional portraits on the calendar is a gift for a new mom.
Second, it allows me to capture better and better images as the year goes on. Some of the greatest friendships, and the portraits sessions that I’m most proud of, have come from families we met when the couple was just a couple, we got to know them and then BAM!, they were expecting a baby.

Our package covers newborn portraits, a 6-month portrait session and then One Year Birthday session. Once you’re in, we can start planning. Maternity portraits can be added if you desire.

The newborns are first and they are just, … perfect.

The six-month sessions are too much fun, because these little shavers are no longer so fragile and yet malleable that we just fold them into fun gooey shapes between feedings and set changes. At 6-months, they aren’t walking, but they are sitting up and pliable and you can pull out all sorts of attractions and props and have a blast. Indoors and outdoors, forests and fields, milk baths and orchard crates, a 6 month old shines everywhere.

One full trip around the sun is worth celebrating with outdoor parties, cake smashes, props, and with bigger and more adventurous themes. This session completes the package if that is the family’s goal. At the end of the year we create a custom designed photo album that includes all the favorite photos from each session.

The one year package can be upgraded to include a maternity portrait session and often, when ladies find out they’re pregnant, they want to include this special time. I don’t know about the rest of you, but pregnant women take my breath away. Is there anything more lovely than an expectant mom? We encourage newly married couples to keep this package in mind … just in case.

If you would like to learn more about our Baby’s First Year Portrait package, please contact us. We can manage portraits of all stripes, even with social distancing and in this weird time. The first year of a baby’s life is an amazing time. Don’t miss an opportunity to capture it with professional portraits.


We love family portraits whether they are set in the studio, the great outdoors, a specific location like the mountains or high country, or on our property in our outdoor portrait garden. Pixels on Paper photographs newborns and families, special events and portraits  of all kinds in our Wilkesboro, NC studio. We would be honored to meet with you, learn about you and your family and be a part of taking special portraits that will become, we hope, family heirlooms.
