They grow fast—let’s freeze this moment
One minute it’s baby rolls, the next it’s first steps.
One moment, they’re curled up in your arms. The next, they’re rolling, sitting, crawling—and suddenly bursting with personality.
Your baby’s story is unfolding faster than you ever imagined.
One moment you’re rocking them to sleep, and the next they’re reaching for your face, sitting proudly on their own, or crawling straight into your lap with the biggest grin.
And here you are, either counting down to when your little miracle arrives or now holding a precious bundle of newborn gorgeousness in your arms.
These in-between milestones—before the first birthday, after the newborn haze—are filled with magic. Little personality quirks, first smiles, chunky thighs, tiny teeth. All the things you swear you’ll never forget… but time has other plans.
That’s where milestone photography comes in. Whether your baby is three months, six months, nine months—or anywhere in between—these sessions are designed to capture your little one exactly as they are right now.
Because this stage? It’s every bit as special as the newborn days.
And just like those early weeks, it doesn’t last forever.
Your baby is growing, changing, becoming more themselves every day. These are the moments that will make you pause in a year’s time and say, “Remember when…?”
Let’s turn those memories into something you can hold onto—gorgeous, personality-filled portraits that will become part of your family’s story.
There’s no set schedule for babyhood. Some are sitting tall at six months. Others take their time. Some flash gummy grins from three months old
Others save their smiles for special moments. Every baby grows at their own pace—and that’s what makes milestone sessions so magical.
Whether your little one is just starting to lift their head, learning to sit, crawling at lightning speed, or simply bursting with cheeky charm, this is a season worth remembering.
These sessions aren’t about hitting a milestone on a calendar. They’re about freezing the everyday magic—those twinkly eyes, squishy rolls, and giggles that fill your home with joy.
No matter what stage your baby is in, our Blue Mountains milestone photography sessions are designed to celebrate them exactly as they are, right now.
Each chapter is unique. Each stage is unrepeatable. And each one deserves to be captured beautifully.
For 25 years, I’ve been trusted by families across Penrith, Blue Mountains, and Western Sydney to capture their most precious stages.
After more than 20 years of photographing babies and families, I’ve learned that the best portraits happen when everyone feels relaxed and seen.
Your baby doesn’t need to perform. They don’t need to “behave.” They just need to be themselves—and that’s where the magic is.
Whether your little one is full of energy, a little shy, or somewhere in between, I’ll gently guide the session in a way that brings out their natural expressions and personality. From thoughtful pauses to cheeky grins, every baby brings something special to the frame.
My Wentworth Falls studio in the Blue Mountains is a calm, cosy space designed for comfort, cuddles, and connection. You don’t need to worry about props, outfits, or what to bring—just your baby, as they are right now.
Because this stage will pass in a blur. And I want you to have photographs that help you remember exactly how it felt.
Local Heart, Professional Expertise: Based in the stunning Blue Mountains, just 40 minutes from Penrith, my studio offers the perfect escape from the everyday.
Many families tell me the gentle drive through the mountains becomes part of their special memory.
Transparency You Can Trust: No hidden fees, no surprise costs. What I quote is what you pay, because starting your family’s photography journey should feel exciting, not stressful.
When you choose Kristy’s Studio, you’re choosing someone who’s not just local – you’re choosing someone who’s been trusted by your community for a quarter of a century.
“Should I wait until they’re doing more?” (The short answer? No.)
It’s totally normal to wonder when the “right time” is for milestone photos.
Should you wait until they’re sitting? Crawling? Walking?
But here’s the truth: every stage is beautiful. Every expression, every movement, every little quirk your baby shows off right now—you won’t get that exact version of them again.
These sessions are about celebrating who your baby is today, not waiting for a perfect pose or a camera-ready moment. Whether they’re confidently sitting or still needing a little support, whether they give us cheeky smiles or thoughtful stares, we’ll capture images full of real personality.
And you don’t need to worry about what to bring or how it will go. My Blue Mountains milestone sessions are relaxed, baby-led, and designed to be enjoyable for both of you. I’ll guide you every step of the way.
Because months from now—when your baby has changed again—you’ll be so glad you paused to capture this version of them.
We have two simple packages to chose from depending on your style and budget
Do you have a special photo album from your childhood? One that makes you smile every time you see it on the shelf?
There’s something magical that happens when you hold a real photograph in your hands. It’s different from scrolling through your phone – more intimate, more permanent, more real. When you flip through those pages, you’re not just seeing images, you’re feeling the weight of your history, touching your memories.
Your parents probably have albums filled with your childhood – birthday parties, family holidays, those precious everyday moments that seemed so ordinary then but feel priceless now. Those albums became treasures, didn’t they? The kind you reach for when you want to remember, when you want to share your story with someone special.
Now it’s your turn to create those treasures for your own family.
Imagine your child at sixteen, showing their friends their baby photos from a beautiful album. Picture yourself at seventy, sharing these images with grandchildren who will marvel at how tiny their parent once was. These aren’t just photos – they’re the beginning of your family’s visual legacy.
The beauty of printed memories is that they don’t disappear. Phones break, files get lost, technology changes. But a beautiful photograph printed on quality paper? That lasts generations.
As part of your session, you’ll have the opportunity to create stunning wall art and albums that transform your precious moments into lasting family heirlooms. Whether it’s a simple gallery wall or an elegant album, these pieces become the heartbeat of your home.
Because some memories deserve more than just living in your camera roll.

Nestled in the beautiful Blue Mountains, my studio feels more like a cozy home than a photography space.
Kristy’s Studio is nestled in Wentworth Falls, right in the heart of the Blue Mountains—a cosy, light-filled space where babies can play, explore, and shine.
From soft textures to age-appropriate props, everything is thoughtfully set up to keep your little one comfortable and engaged. Whether they’re sitting unassisted or still need support, we create setups that suit their stage—simple, sweet, and all about your baby’s personality.
I have a curated selection of adorable baby outfits on hand, so there’s no need to stress about what to bring. You’re welcome to bring your own too—but either way, we’ll style a look that lets your baby be the star.
Sessions are calm, baby-led, and always flexible. We pause for cuddles, drinks, and reset moments as needed—no rush, no pressure.
And if you’d love to jump in for a few parent or sibling photos, you’re more than welcome to. These images are part of your family story, after all.
With 25 years of experience and specialised safety training, your little one is in the most caring hands.
Every pose, every position, every gentle movement is guided by years of understanding exactly how to keep babies comfortable and completely safe. I watch for every tiny signal your baby gives me, adjusting and adapting to ensure they’re always at ease.
My studio is a clean, safe sanctuary where everything – from props to blankets – is carefully sanitised before each session. As a fully vaccinated photographer, I take every precaution to protect your precious new arrival.
Because creating beautiful memories should never come at the cost of peace of mind.
The studio is in Wentworth Falls, Blue Mountains.
2 weeks is perfect if you are booking a weekday. If you want a Saturday, you might need to plan several months in advance 🙂
Nappies, bottles with pumped milk or formula (if possible). Snacks and your babies favourite toys to keep them happy between set ups 🙂
Absolutely! I love LOVE including sentimental items within sessions 🙂
30 or 90 Minutes depending on session booked.
This is a common concern for parents as a baby’s temperament can change overnight.
But please don’t worry.
If your baby is unsettled, cranky, or just doesn’t want to play, we’ll simply reschedule. This happens very rarely. Normally we can get a gallery of wrapped images even with a grumpy bubba 🙂
Because capturing these moments for you and your baby are just as important to me.
I want all my families to have beautiful newborn photos to treasure in years to come.
Life happens – don’t panic! Touch base and we can chat 🙂
Full sessions can be booked on a Saturday, however please be advised that I am often booked out months in advance
Milestone Photography in Western Sydney, Sydney, Blue Mountains and Lithgow.
Once your baby arrives, life gets busy. The days and nights seem to pass in a blur of nappy changes, feeds, and endless cuddles. And before you know it, your baby is 6 months old, smiling a toothy grin and sitting on their own.
Milestones like your baby’s gummy smile, or when they get their first teeth, take their first steps and say their first words.
All these moments are such special milestones and are worth documenting.
And what better way to remember these special moments than with cute Milestone Photography in my Western Sydney studio.
If you’re looking for Milestone Photography in Penrith or Western Sydney area, get in touch here.
Your baby’s first special milestone moments happen around 3 months old. Your baby is getting strong and starts holding their head up and rewarding you with the cutest gummy smiles.
This is such a super cute age! It’s the time your baby starts sitting all by themself. And soon after they start crawling and walking. Your baby is feeling very clever at this age and their little personality is starting to shine. Your baby is full of cute smiles and giggles, making this age a perfect time to capture gorgeous photos in a sitter session.
Your baby’s first birthday is such a special milestone. After all, you only have a first birthday once in your life. So it’s a popular milestone many parents want to remember with a sitter session. In fact, many parents love celebrating their baby’s first birthday so much, that they book a cake smash session to document the occasion.
It’s a fun studio session with your baby and their first birthday cake. Many babies get super excited and smash their birthday cake while others have fun experiencing their first taste of cake and icing.
These sessions are often hilarious with lots of giggles and cute photos.
They’re the perfect way to document your baby’s first birthday and I offer a variety of gorgeous themes to style your baby’s session.
You can learn more about cake smash sessions here.
