Milestone (3mo, 6mo, 9mo, 1yr) can be taken in my all white studio if you prefer a simple, classic portrait experience. Location Jennings, LA or they can be taken outside at another location. My studio location does not have a good area for outdoors photos so the choice has to be one or the other.

Pricing is based off of a milestone session of one individual. If you would like to incorporate parents in the photos or even siblings in the photos then please see the pricing tab for family sessions, as that would become a family photo session.

Why is it important to take these milestone photos? Here are just a few reasons.

The first year of their life is full of so many exciting moments and they grow so quickly and change so much during this first year that we want to document their milestones for you. This will be a great reminder or memory that you have documented in photo form. From sitting up to really smiling, to exploring. Don't stop at their newborn photos as babies change so rapidly both in looks and with their motor skills.

A couple of tips: If bringing balloons please make sure it's an indoor session. If outdoors balloons tends to fly everywhere even with a weight attached to them. Sometimes I may get a smile but the balloons are sideways because the wind has taken them. Also if doing balloons please do not do foil. Foil balloons shows everyones reflection in them. Do latex please.

If you plan on ordering suspenders or anything from that matter from an online site. Please try it on ahead of time and please make sure the fit is good before coming to the studio. Make any adjustments with safety pins, or sewing beforehand. I will not be able to edit straps that are too large and falling down, etc. Refer to the contract where it talks about editing.

Below are a few reasons on why I love to do a studio session over an outdoor session. 

  1. Weather. Our lovely Louisiana weather has been more and more unpredictable every year. If you want to be sure that the date and time that you choose doesn’t need to be rescheduled (sometimes multiple times) for rainy weather, or a forecast that is unpredictable, or just because of the heat in general especially if considering or needing a summer date. Opting for a studio session means you get air conditioner, doesn't that sound great?! Your portraits are also done exactly when you plan for them despite of the weather conditions.
  2. It helps keep your babies close by without running away or wanting to run all over outside.
  3. What about your home? Consider what will look best on your walls. Do neutral colors flood your home? My bright and airy studio might be the perfect setting to have your portraits taken.
  4. Outdoor sessions we may fight with the heat, humidity and fighting with fly aways in women's/ girls hair, bugs, flush (red) faces from heat, sweating, sweat marks on clothing, etc.


Prices are subject to change without notice. All photo session locations will be within 10 miles of Jennings, Louisiana. If you choose to have your photos taken at a different location, the price will change according to the mileage and the travel time.

Each photo session will come with a guaranteed 25-30 edited images. Images will be delivered to you via email from an online downloadable gallery. I will email you your session and from the comfort of your own home, you can simply open the email, and download the link (choose high resolution) and have your images in front of you. All final images are chosen by your photographer and will include a print release.

Subjects that wear glasses, let's talk for a moment. I feel like if you wear glasses on a regular basis then you may not feel or look like yourself without them. So therefore I do recommend still wearing them and not talking them off, but sadly I can't edit out glares, reflections, or can't change the appearance of the blue light, or the dark lens transition feature on the eye glasses. If you have an image that you absolutely love, I can possibly try to send the image off to get corrected at an estimated cost of $20 per image at the cost of the clients expense.

If you wish to have a CD instead of an online downloadable gallery. Please let me know and we can add an additional $5 fee for a shipping and handling fee for the mailing of your CD.

If you wish to have an USB instead of an online downloadable gallery. Please let me know and we can add an additional $20 fee for the cost of the USB, and for a shipping and handling fee for the mailing of your USB.


Pricing - $200.00 per milestone or $180.00 per milestone if a newborn fresh 48 session or newborn lifestyle session was previously booked with us. If you have twins the cost of the milestones will be $225 if a newborn session was booked with us.

These sessions are done at 3 months, 6 months, 9 months and 1 year. Pricing is PER MILESTONE Milestone sessions include baby ONLY, no additional family members are included in these milestones. Pricing is reduced to the above per milestone if a newborn/fresh 48 has been previously booked through Reed Through The Lens Photography.

My pricing reflects the education, the hours of learning and doing, along with the amount of experience it has taken me to be able to create consistent images. Not to mention that the price also reflects what we are experiencing as a whole. If you have purchased anything recently whether it be groceries or gas then you have noticed increasing in prices for everything. It only makes sense that us small businesses take measures that reflect the economy to stay afloat also. When looking for your photographer, don't worry about spending less worry about getting great, solid images because these will be around forever.
I love that I get to preserve the details and the memories so that they may be treasured for years to come by my clients and your families.

Do you want to purchase a video add on for this session? Videos can be added on for an additional $400. I will need to know this ahead of time to prep for your video session.
