Sweet Summer Vibes | 4-Month Watermelon Milestone Session

There’s something extra sweet about photographing babies in their milestone months. At 4 months, little personalities are starting to shine, expressions are priceless, and tummy time portraits become some of the cutest images.

This summer, we celebrated a milestone with a watermelon-inspired session that couldn’t have been more perfect. With bright red, fresh green, and plenty of watermelon slices, this setup felt playful and seasonal while still letting baby girl’s natural beauty shine through.

She wore the sweetest watermelon romper with a green bow, and from the moment she was placed in the middle of the setup, her wide eyes and big smiles stole the show. At this stage, babies are full of curiosity; taking in the world around them with wonder, and that joy is what makes milestone sessions so special.

Whether you’re celebrating 3 months, 6 months, or a first birthday, milestone sessions are a chance to pause and capture these fast-changing seasons. Babies don’t stay little for long, but photographs keep these memories fresh forever.
