Newborn photography is a truly an artform and one that I absolutely love! It requires patience, knowledge, and a whole lot of love to capture those beautiful sleepy newborn portraits my client want! I’ve been lucky enough to train with some of the most recognized newborn photographers in the industry and it makes my heart happy to use the skills I’ve acquired to preserve this special times for my wonderful clients! So here’s my 6 favorite things about newborn photography!

Discovering Their Personalities
Every newborn I’ve ever photographed was born with so much personality! Some babies are calm, quiet, and easy going. Some have very strong feelings about what they want and when. And as they grow their personalities grow too. I love this so much! It’s a joy to watch and a blessing to capture. It’s why you’ll hear me talking quietly to my babies as I work with them. I’m learning who they are, what they like and what they want as I photograph and pose them. Each baby is unique so their portraits should be too!

Capturing the Details
Babies grow and change so fast! And there are so many little details on these little loves that we want to remember forever! I always do my best to try and capture those little things you’ll never want to forget – little fingers, little toes, tiny lips and dainty noses. Before you know it – they aren’t this tiny anymore and these pictures I capture will help you remember all those things you may forget!

Little Details

Documenting a New Family
Whether it’s your first child or your seventh, the birth of a new child is the birth of a new family unit and deserves to be documented. The addition of a new family member means a family is growing and evolving. There are these special connections between parents and child and siblings. These lovely bonds should be captured and documented with love!

Creating Beautiful Heirloom Artwork
Nothing makes me happier than creating beautiful heirloom artwork for my clients to enjoy! With newborn sessions, my favorite and most popular items are one of a kind wall art and our custom designed albums. Creating stunning wall displays to enjoy and ensure their children regularly see their connection to the family (which has been shown to boost children’s self-esteem). And unique albums that document newborn sessions or baby’s first year are priceless treasures for years to come!

You may have noticed my repeated commentary on preserving this time. And it’s true – this time is SO fleeting! Whether you have children of your own or not, you’ll know how quickly these little ones change and grow. I cannot even begin to tell you how many mothers love the images we capture of their precious little loves. We can’t turn back the clock – but beautiful portraits give us the closest thing we have to being able to do that!
