I first worked with Stephanie & Ben for their maternity session in the park, which can be viewed by clicking here. They were such a fun and loving couple to photograph! I was so excited to hear that their baby boy, Warner, had finally arrived. He was every bit as cute as I thought he would be and was such a little snuggler. He had long dark eyelashes and the flashed the sweetest little grins throughout his session.
One of my favorite things about newborn sessions is seeing and photographing how enamored new parents are with their newborns. This is just the way it should be, and it always takes me back to when my own children were that tiny. I remember staring at them in awe and listening to their little squeaks and coos. I remember how they snuggled up to my chest and were small enough to cover with both of my hands. I blinked, and now my oldest is in kindergarten. I'm so grateful to have beautiful images of each of our children and our family from that time so I never forget what my children looked like as newborns and how our family looked at that time in our lives.
Stephanie opted to add on makeup services for her session, so Megan and I were waiting at the studio when the family arrived. I pulled a dress from the studio wardrobe that I knew Stephanie would look amazing in since it was by the same label as one of the dresses she chose for her maternity session. She LOVED the dress, and fit perfectly into it! Megan started working on Stephanie while I took Warner to the newborn shooting room for his solo portraits. Adding on HMUA services does NOT extend your newborn session time. Our hair and makeup artists are usually finishing up at the same time I am with just your baby, and we move to parent and family images. If you're still in the chair when I am finished with your baby, we'll move to dad and baby images while we wait for you to join us!
Here are just a few images from Warner's newborn session. Isn't he the cutest little guy?
If you're expecting a baby or already a parent and looking for a newborn, maternity, or family photographer, I would love to work with you to create images that you will love for a lifetime. Watch this video to hear about my philosophy and see how I work in the studio so you can determine if I'm the right fit for you. I can't wait to meet you!
