What is the best age to have my baby's portrait taken?

  Newborns, ideally, should be photographed within the first 7 days of life. It's important to have portraits created during this stage because it is very easy to curl and position newborns into those sweet little poses. Also, you will have a permanent record of your baby's tiny size. After all, he/she will never be that small again!

After the newborn stage, we recommend having portraits made at any stage you feel is important, i.e., sitting up, crawling, walking, birthdays, special occassions. These stages don't always coincide with the typical 3-month milestones that most parents want to capture, so it's important to remember that a portrait at any stage is a priceless record of your child on that particular day. It doesn't necessarily need to happen at exactly the 6 or 9-month mark.
