Cornish MAINE Portrait Photographer // Kyson // Baby Photo Session

As a studio photographer, I have the privilege of preserving precious moments in the lives of families. Recently, I had the pleasure of photographing Kyson again, an exceptional 7-month-old baby who has already overcome incredible challenges. Despite his journey, Kyson's resilience and infectious joy made this milestone session truly unforgettable.

Kyson's journey began with a difficult start, having undergone open heart surgery at such a tender age. This milestone session, originally planned for his 6-month sitter stage, had to be delayed to give him a chance to heal and put him back on track with his milestones. It couldn’t have been easy for his to spend a month in the hospital.

We explored a variety of setups throughout the session. One of the highlights was placing him in a rustic white bowl, which he was able to balance himself perfectly in.

Next, we positioned Kyson on a charming little bench, allowing him to show off his sitting skills. The changing of outfits for each setup added a touch of diversity to each setting.

Kyson's curiosity and exploration were evident as we laid him on a soft fur rug, as he rocked back and forth on his belly.

Transitioning to a cozy bed setup, we wanted to create a sense of comfort in a lifestyle type setup. Kyson enjoyed sitting and sometimes rolling backward as he sat on the safety of the bed.:

Our final stop was the couch, where Kyson's parents were making silly faces and sharing playful moments with their little one. The infectious laughter that filled the room was a testament to the love and happiness that Kyson brings to those around him.

Kyson's milestone session was a true celebration of life, resilience, and the triumph of the human spirit. Through each setup, we captured not only his physical growth but also the underlying strength and joy that radiate from within him. It was an honor to document Kyson's journey, and I am humbled by his tenacity and the love of his family. These images will serve as a reminder that even in the face of adversity, there is always room for hope, laughter, and the celebration of life's miraculous milestones.
