What is a bath session?


Milk bath and fruit bath sessions are creative portrait sessions designed around a shallow tub filled with milk, water, fruit, flowers, greenery, or other themed details. Themes can be soft and floral, bright and playful, or completely customized around your child. Past ideas have included bubble baths, rubber ducks, milk and cookies, breakfast cereal, hot chocolate, and colorful fruit baths.


Bath sessions are especially popular for babies and young children, but they can be adapted for a variety of ages. Children should be able to sit independently before being photographed alone in a tub. For younger babies, we can create overhead portraits in very shallow water or include a parent for additional support. Safety, comfort, and modesty are always prioritized throughout the session.


I provide the tub and help plan everything from the colors, styling, and decorative details for your chosen theme. We can use milk or a milk alternative or keep it simple with fresh water.


Milk bath and fruit bath photography sessions are available in the Atlanta and Marietta area and may take place indoors or outdoors, depending on the concept and time of year.

Milk Bath & Fruit Bath Session FAQ

How many images will I get?

You will get to review and select your favorite images at your ordering appointment about one week after your session.

What is included in the session?

We will plan your session together and decide if you want to include any florals, greenery, or fruit with your milk bath photos.

What is the best age for milk bath photos?

Milk bath sessions are best if your child is under 2 and can sit well unassisted. If you'd like a milk bath for a younger baby, we can do a shallow milk bath in one of my larger tubs and do some lying-down photos. Or, a mommy and me milk bath is perfect for very little ones and makes for a beautiful nursing session.

I still have questions.
