Seven Sweet Months at the Pumpkin Stand

There’s just something special about milestone sessions — watching little ones grow month by month, seeing their personalities bloom, and capturing those fleeting expressions that change all too quickly. This week, I had the sweetest seven-month milestone session with a little boy at a cozy pumpkin stand right here in Nitro, West Virginia, and my heart could hardly handle the cuteness!

The crisp fall air, pops of orange and gold, and a giggly baby in the middle of it all made this session feel like something straight out of a storybook. He gave the biggest smiles, those precious wide-eyed looks, and even a few silly faces that had us all laughing behind the camera. The pumpkins made the perfect backdrop — warm, rustic, and full of autumn charm that perfectly matched his little personality.

At seven months, everything feels new and exciting for babies — the textures, the sounds, even the cool breeze brushing across their cheeks. And that’s what I love most about milestone sessions like this. They remind us to slow down and soak in every stage — the chubby cheeks, the tiny fingers, the curiosity in their eyes. Because before we know it, they’ll be running through the pumpkin patch instead of sitting in it.

It’s always such an honor to capture these milestones for families here in my hometown area. Sessions like this one are a sweet reminder of why I love what I do — freezing a little moment in time that parents will treasure for years to come.

If you’re thinking about booking a milestone session for your little one, I’d love to help you plan something special. Whether it’s pumpkins, wildflowers, or cozy Christmas magic — let’s capture the season your baby is in right now, before it passes by.
