If you’re a parent, I bet you remember what it was like just after your little one was born. That feeling of wanting to hold your baby close, even when others offered to give you a break. You weren’t ready for a break just yet. You could stare at those sweet, perfect features for hours. And when you did take a break or put baby down to rest, you were eager for a few more snuggles even though you desperately needed rest yourself.
I know the feeling. I’ve had three babies. And no amount of tiredness could keep me from gazing at those tiny toes and precious faces. That’s one of the reasons I become a newborn photographer. I wanted to preserve this fleeting time as brilliantly as possible, and I wanted to give other families that same gift.
S. parents contacted me well before her due date to schedule a newborn session as soon as possible after her arrival. They weren’t after any fancy props or themed sets. They just wanted to capture that perfect newborn bliss. She is their firstborn, and they wanted to take in every minute of this magical experience. Everything went smoothly, and we were able to get sweet S. into the studio at just eight days old – perfect timing to capture that true curled up newborn look.
We kept it simple just as they requested adding in just a few pink accents. S. slept the entire session without making a peep and was a perfect model! I could not get enough of her beautiful little lashes, button nose, and precious lips. What a sweetie!
There’s something I love so much about a little boy session. Maybe it’s the simplicity. The focus only on that sweet baby and nothing else. As a newborn baby photographer, that’s really my goal. To feature that sweet new addition to your family in the best way possible, but also in a way that you love and that reflects my style with your input from the questionnaire. I can come to your home and bring the studio or you could come to my home studio whichever is easiest for you. I clean and sanitize all of my equipment and props before each session. So take a look below and see what we came up with. Such a sweet boy … and those cheeks!
What a gorgeous little peanut! K. was definitely small, but she rocked her new baby photo session. I love all the neutrals from her session with some soft pops of color. She slept for a majority of her session, Big brother was so good with her. He was so proud and make sure to check out the stunning parent images from her session. I know she’ll cherish those when she gets older. Congratulations to this beautiful family of four! I loved meeting you all and can’t wait to see how she has grown as the months go by!
“AND NOW," CRIED MAX, "LET THE WILD RUMPUS START!”
This is one of my FAVORITE photography sets, and boy, did G. play his part in the shoot. What a handsome little prince he was! I used the Where the Wild things are set up for his newborn session and i got to use it again for his ONE yr. session.
Little G. 7 days old and now almost a ONE yr old.
i had so much fun photographing all these families at the Sunflower field this year! Thank you for coming out during this pandemic. The field was just breath taking. Alvis Farms was an incredible host for the sunflower festival. Their 50+ acre sunflowers were the perfect backdrop for family photos.
Wow, I haven’t blogged a newborn session in a while. Yikes! It’s finally picking up a little since the covid shutdown. But I have the perfect reason to get back to sharing my adorable little newborn sessions – I’ve have the opportunity to photograph M. 13 days new. I do clean and sanitized all equipment after each session . I can come to you or you could come to my home studio. Once you book a session we discuss props and colors. If you prefer to use your own props and wraps that would be fine.
I loved meeting Miss M. She didn’t like to be wrapped but she eventually fell asleep and posed for her session. They are so over the moon with their little girl! Congratulations to the proud parents on your birth of your precious little girl – it has been such an honor getting to know you and documenting your growing family.

I usually encourage parents to bring baby to me when they are still under two weeks, or at least in the first month, if they want newborn style images of their sweet babies. But I know that cannot always happen. I would never turn away a client just because baby is “older”. I do, however, have to set expectations with the family. At 6wks., I usually cannot get sleep curly newborn style images. Sweet baby X. didn't fit the mold for a typical 6wks old baby girl. She slept a little for her session and we were able to get some darling awake AND asleep shots of her. At this age if they do sleep I can usually only get them in one prop, asleep. Moving them usually wakes them. But she let us move her! It was definitely challenging, but SO worth the patience. I mean, how you can you resist these sweet images! <3 Congrats to this beautiful family!
I’m so excited to introduce little Colby. I photographed him a few weeks ago before all of this corona stuff . I photographed big sisters newborn session a couple of years ago and I was having flashbacks.. they are complete cuties They both are so adorable and had such a great photoshoot. Below are some favorites from Colbys at-home newborn family photos in Richmond, VA . I bring the studio to the comfort of your home. I sanitize the equipment and use a mask and gloves to make sure everyone is safe and healthy.
Look at adorable Noah from his in-home newborn session. He was such a good baby, he was up for most of his session and liked to cluster feed but at 8 days new he rocked his session. I know his parents will charish these images for years to come. I’m so happy to provides these newborn photographs for families in the comfort of their own home. I also have a home studio but for the most part clients feel more comfortable in their homes. I bring the whole studio to you. We discuss colors and props you would like to incorporate into your session to make them special to you.
This sleeping angel is so very loved! I brought the studio to her home. This allows parents to be more relaxed and not worry if they forget something. This Deluxe Newborn session includes parents. The session takes a little longer but is more relaxed since it does take place in the comfort of your own home. Each newborn session is beautiful and unique in its own way. You get to choose the props and colors from my prop collection.
Thank you guys for sharing your little one with us!
A rainbow baby is a baby born shortly after the loss of a previous baby due to miscarriage, stillbirth, or death in infancy. This term is given to these special rainbow babies because a rainbow typically follows a storm, giving us hope of what’s to come.”
This was such an emotional and special newborn photo session. Every part of these photos had a meaning and a deep connection with this loving family. I am very grateful to be part of these incredible moments. Thank you guys so much. I have worked with this family for a few years. I just love when clients become more like friends.
Little Z. was a great little model and Big sister was such a great helper during his session.
I got to meet this boy's wonderful parents before he was born for Mom's maternity shoot. He did great for his newborn shoot! He's the CUTEST little guy and I can't wait to see him grow over the next year! Welcome baby T This session was taken in the comfort of their home. I bring all the props and studio lights for his session. Little T. was the sleepiest little model. He loved to be wrapped up and didn’t mind being on his belly for some poses.
Sweet little Lainey has made her entrance into the world and she came weighing in at 7 pounds, 4 ounces. She is just the apple of her parents eyes. I arrived at her house when she was 7 days new for an in home studio newborn session. Big sister was so excited and was so sweet to her little sis. I was so happy that I got to meet her and her family and I look forward to watching him grow over the next year.
Audrey is ONE!! She was such a sweet little one year old. She was such a ham…she wanted to sit on my lap and have me read her stories and then the next min she would climb on the chair and clap her hands.
I photographed sweet R. 3 days after he was born. He was such a great sleeper and his Big brothers were so excited to show off their little brother. Baby R. was such a good newborn for his newborn pictures. After being awake for pictures with his family, he slept for the remainder of his session and gave us some amazing newborn photos. I’ve photographed R. brothers and I look forward to working with his family.
Cake Smash sessions are so much fun. Some kids smile a bunch, some are super serious, some cry, some do a mixture of all three, but watching kids try cake for the first time is really and enjoyable time no mater how they react to the cake. Seeing their reaction to their cake smash session is so much fun and can make mom and dad really laugh during their session. I brought the studio to Airias home which may help with their anxiety . Airia cried some times but really liked her cake. Her theme was Alice in Wonderland which is an awesome theme for a cake smash.
Meet Ava! What a sweetheart she is and a beautiful addition to this world! She was a Rockstar during her session and slept most of the time. Her big brother adores her but was a little shy during the photo session. I can tell she is already so loved by her family. We did a mixture of lifestyle and posed newborns which is always a good option when you are dealing with a toddler who may not want to pose.
