milestone portrait INVESTMENT DETAILS: 

Motherhood is the quiet grieving of all of the versions of them that you don’t get to keep. But the portraits remain — proof that you once held them just like this.

Charleston, South Carolina Maternity and Newborn Photographer.

A third generation photographer, I grew up in a home with beautiful, old black & white portraits lining our walls & filling our drawers. I think I've always loved faces, relationships & artistic storytelling because of it. After graduate school, I moved home, opened my portrait company and never looked back! I've been helping families to tell their love stories professionally for the last 16 years and for you, that means: reliable, consistent, quality work, every time!

about Brittany

Kind Words
New parents embrace their infant during Newborn Portrait Session in Charleston, SC.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!

"Brittany is such a wonderful photographer!! I first met her when she did my maternity shoot and was so pleased with those that I hired her to do our newborn photos and milestone photos for our little girl. She is such a pleasure to work with and we are always so thrilled with her photos! I will treasure these forever!"

WE HAD THE BEST EXPERIENCE!"

"Brittany is absolutely amazing!!! She recently did our second child’s newborn photos and they turned out stunning!!!! I found her when she took our oldest child’s newborn photos and have used her for lots of our other family photos over the past 3 years! She is so talented and also has the most wonderful and personable yet very professional personality that makes the entire process seem easy, even with a newborn and a 3 year old running around! I can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience and the beautiful photos she took!"

WOW! I'M ABSOLUTELY SPEECHLESS.

"If you’re looking for a photographer for your newborn and/or family photos, look no further! Brittany is your girl! Brittany did my newborn session recently and I was blown away by her patience, especially when my baby decided she no longer wanted to participate in the shoot halfway through! I appreciated the fact that Brittany never made us feel rushed and always followed the baby’s cues. And the resulting photos were perfect. Additionally, she knew just how to appeal to my toddler by being silly and keeping a stash of toys and snacks at the ready. We will definitely use Holy City Babies for future milestones!"

Frequently Asked Questions

when should i book my baby's MILESTONE session?

I can only accept a maximum of 5 children for Milestone  Portraits at the studio each month (in addition to the other types of sessions that I shoot there.) Because of this, my availability is limited and I would encourage you to book your Milestone and/or Cake Smash Photoshoot as soon as possible. Most parents book their child's Milestone Sessions in advance for either 3/4, 6/7, 9/10 months and 1st Birthday. I also have a Grow with Me Collection that you can purchase which is 3,6,9,12 scheduled all at once!  My shoot calendar fills up quickly. It is important to schedule as soon as possible to ensure my availability your baby's Milestone Portraits!

what does my baby need to wear for their milestone photos?

Most parents already have something in mind that they would like their children to wear for their Milestone Portrait Session. If you have no idea what you want your child to wear for this portrait session, you're in luck!
I have a client closet for babies with sitter sizing up to 18 months. We can discuss your ideas for this session and I can either help guide you in selecting wardrobe for your baby's Milestone Session OR you can borrow something from my client closet!

HOW LONG UNTIL WE SEE PROOFS?

Your Baby's Milestone Portrait Session Proofs will be delivered within 7 days of your Baby's Portrait Session. You can either schedule an in-person ordering appointment at the studio or I can deliver an online proof gallery if that's easier for your family!

when should we shoot our baby milestone portraits?

I recommend scheduling your Baby's Milestone Portrait Sessions at intervals of 3 months (when they start smiling at you!), 5-7 months (when they've discovered their feet), 7-10 months (when they're sitting up, crawling, chonky & smiley) and of course the 1st Birthday / Cake Smash Session!

not the right time for you?

where do we shoot?

Milestone Portraits in Charleston happen  either at my Photography Studio (Holy City Babies) located in the Avondale neighborhood of Charleston at 1020 Savannah Hwy OR we can shoot them outdoors / on-location in Charleston!
