13 Adorable Inspiring Photos + DIY Tips To Capture Baby’s 1st Easter

By Casi Densmore-Koon |

During the first 12 months of your little one’s life, your baby will have many first milestones. First foods, first time they coo, first smile, and of course first holidays. All, which in my opinion, should be captured by camera (or iPhone). However, during the holidays I always go a step up and getting that baby in front of the camera is a must.

With Easter just around the corner, there are many who have booked their Easter portraits or who are gearing up for a spring photo session. That said, it is always fun to have a little inspiration to keep in mind when you’re heading out to visit your photographer or when you do it yourself. Look for props or things around your home to capture the perfect memory. With a few quick tips, you’ll have the perfect Easter portrait in no time!
