This gorgeous newborn was just over two weeks old when we took her photos. Typically we try to meet little ones like Baby R. before the two week point, but boy was she adorable! Once she fell asleep she was so easy to work with. And her mom had all of these awesome props, as you will see below! I hope you enjoy her awesome session! Can't wait to watch her grow up into a beautiful young girl! Congrats Matt & Jess, she was perfect!
There is something so beyond beautiful when it comes to working with newborns. And not just with newborn baby girls... many of the newborn boys I've worked with over the last few months have been just as gorgeous... especially Baby C. P. who's about to be featured below. His innocent smile, perfect little nose, and barely there lashes were just too adorable for words. And when his mom brought out the one Pinterest pose she thought was worth trying with the teddy bear, I couldn't say no!!! Baby C.P. held on tight to his teddy, and was a peaceful as a lamb. I just loved his session. Especially that he was awake for the first bit, allowing for those big baby blues to show, and then fast asleep for the many close-ups and poses that completed the session. I wish his parents millions of moments of joy, and have no doubt in my mind that they will find them watching this charming boy grow. Introducing Baby C. P.
This gorgeous newborn was so phenomenal to work with! She had the giggles when I first met her, and then when it was time for her to sleep - she was out and totally willing to pose. She is so absolutely beautiful! And when Mom asked if we could work in the other love of their life, their first baby Mr. Oakley (their awesome goldendoodle), I said OF COURSE! I hope you enjoy this little one's blog post as much as I enjoyed taking her photos! Without further ado... Introducing Baby A.... xo
Baby C's newborn shoot was very special to me. Not just because I adore Baby C's parents, but they were also my very first wedding that I ever photographed! They've become wonderful friends of ours and we were so happy with the arrival of their gorgeous son! Baby C's mom will bring new meaning to the term "Soccer Mom" as I'm sure this handsome devil will know his way around the soccer field as soon as he knows how to crawl, forget walk! And, with his parents love for Disney, I'm sure his first trip will be as magical as ever! Absolutely loved how his shoot came out and I hope you do too. And a VERY SPECIAL HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to his amazing dad, as it's his first of many wonderful ones to come!
It was so wonderful to finally get to meet Mr. J's parents, as they have been favorite clients of my wife's for years! And after meeting them, I could see why. They are so friendly, welcoming, and genuinely kind- not to mention the kind of cool you'd want to have a beer with them at a bbq and laugh for hours. And their newest addition, Baby J., is so lucky to have parents like them.
It took a little bit for Baby J. to fall asleep, but once he did... man was it one of the cutest sessions I've had the pleasure to work on! I hope you enjoy his photos as much as I enjoyed taking them. Introducing Baby J....
Mr. O's mom and I grew up together in a small town in the smallest state. The thing about friends in small towns is that if you play sports, you are on the same team with the same people from grade school to high school graduation. Mr. O's mom and I played basketball together, and even though she was a grade older, she became one of my very best friends. In a small town where everyone knows everything about everyone - any personal secrets, high school crushes, anything you don't want everyone to know- you trust very few people with, and for me, she was one of them. We'd walk the track around the Softball field for hours talking about everything and anything. And when she graduated the year before me, she went to Franklin Pierce University- where she met her husband. Franklin Pierce was the first college I ever visited, and the irony is - it's where I now work, in Alumni Relations. Mr. O's mom and I have come full circle, and I love knowing that one of my oldest friends and I still get the opportunities to celebrate milestones - especially the birth of Mr. O! I hope you enjoy the many faces of Mr. O, because I know that it was one of my all time favorite shoots...
Newborn portraits are such a honor to do. Getting to meet little misters and misses during their first days of life, watching them take it all in with curiosity and excitement, but most importantly capturing all the little details that will grow so quickly parents don't want to miss them is amazing. Baby J's mom and I are both Regis ladies, and worked closely together when she was on the Board of Directors. It was so much fun visiting and catching up, and watching the glow she just couldn't get off her face as she watched her new bundle of joy hang out for his first photo shoot. And when I say hang out, I mean - HANG OUT! Baby J would not miss one moment of it, and couldn't fall asleep... until after I left of course. But with those eyes, we didn't mind one bit. I hope you enjoy the introduction to Baby J....
