You dream about them. You wait in anticipation counting the days until their arrival. And then, the moment you lay eyes on them, your heart nearly stops as you are overcome with a love you never even knew you had. You look them over, count their teensy toes, admire the little wrinkles in their skin, stroke their cheek. Your life has forever changed, and your heart now needs a bigger space inside your chest.
Days melt quickly into nights and the whirlwind of parenthood begins. Babies grow SO fast and change so quickly. Let's capture that brand new skin, those tiny hands, that pouty little lip and that feather-soft hair. Let's create a gorgeous heirloom baby album that can be enjoyed for generations to come.
Let's remember just how perfect this first chapter of life was.
Newborns are best photographed between 5-11 days old, as this is when they will be able to stay snuggled up in the cute little poses, and will be nice and sleepy. They can of course still be photographed at several weeks old as well, the posing just needs to be adjusted to what the baby will tolerate. (They start to stretch more and are a little more alert at this point) :)
Newborn sessions usually take 2-3 hours, as we allow for baby to be changed, snuggled and fed. (again and again!) We will take our time and make sure your new little one is happy and comfortable. You will find yourselves able to relax in my studio with refreshments and nice sitting area (you deserve time to relax too!) I am also more than happy to spend some time on family and/or sibling poses.
