Milestone Photography in Carlsbad, NM | Kindergarten, Middle School & High School Graduation
Every season has its stories—but this milestone photo session with three cousins? It told three amazing ones at once. I had the absolute joy of photographing these boys as they each hit a major moment in their lives. From kindergarten to middle school to high school graduation, this cousins photo session was packed with personality, energy, and a whole lot of heart.
Celebrating Big Milestones with a Cousins Photo Session
📸 The youngest cousin is officially a pre-K graduate and headed into Kindergarten this fall! He brought along his favorite pals—Woody, Buzz, and Mr. Potato Head—which made his part of the session extra fun. While he was definitely more interested in tossing his tiny graduation cap into the air than posing for photos, we still captured some absolutely adorable smiles and candid shots that show off his playful spirit.
📚 The middle cousin is stepping into 7th grade. That exciting, sometimes awkward, in-between season where childhood and independence meet. He was calm, kind, and brought such a cool balance to the session, making the perfect bridge between his younger and older cousins.
🎓 And the oldest? He’s a high school graduate! Seeing him stand next to his younger cousins, you could feel the connection and admiration between them.
Why I Love Milestone Sessions Like This
Sessions like these are such a beautiful way to freeze time and celebrate life’s transitions. Whether it’s a kindergarten graduation, moving into middle school, or the major moment of finishing high school, milestone photography lets families look back on these once-in-a-lifetime achievements for years to come.
These three boys—and their families—have so much to celebrate this year, and it was truly an honor to be a small part of that story.
