Some props never lose their appeal, and the Hungry Caterpillar is probably the best example of that. Every year I have little ones in the studio who completely light up the moment they spot those bright colours. This boy was no exception.

A baby sits with two hungry caterpillar toys

We had two caterpillars in for this session, which honestly just made the whole thing. There’s something about this character that works really well in the studio. Parents know him instantly, babies are drawn to him, and he brings a looseness to the session that you can’t really manufacture.

If your little one has a favourite toy, book, or prop they’d love to bring along, they’re more than welcome. It can make a real difference to how relaxed they are, and that always shows in the photos.
