Childhood Portraits

 

From chubby cheeks to gap-toothed grins, each stage of childhood is full of fleeting, magical moments. At VIVID Photography, we love capturing these milestones—whether it’s a baby just starting tummy time, a toddler finding their feet, or a big kid bursting with personality.

These sessions are relaxed and fun. Some little ones jump right in, others need a bit of time to warm up—and that’s perfectly okay. We go at your child’s pace and create a space where their genuine smiles and energy can shine.

📸 Sessions typically last between 15–45 minutes, depending on the child’s comfort and cooperation.
