The “Other” Baby

I love getting to do maternity sessions in client homes. While there is an appeal to studio sessions, there is something so real and so natural about conducting sessions on site. When I arrived, it became very clear who their first baby was! She made herself available for photo opps every chance she had!DSC_0075-01 DSC_0180-01 DSC_0235-01 DSC_0122-01 DSC_0044-01 DSC_0054-01 DSC_0033-01

Welcome to the world, total cuteness! MM did a fabulous job during her session, slept a LOT, which is top priority. Too bad she decided right before we got to the family shots that she was DONE. We spent another hour trying to get one last shot, including breaks to let her eat and eat…and eat!

I am just in LOVE with the images from this session. A beautiful mommy with her little boy, waiting on baby number 2. Can’t you feel the love between them?

And then a few of just the little man alone…

Three Boys!

This was my second time photographing these brothers and I just love Mom’s laid back attitude about it…let them wear superhero costumes, let them play football, let them be BOYS A super fun group for me to work with! And I am loving this family shot…

Sometimes when I do a newborn session with first time parents, there is a lot of chaos and “hovering” to make sure baby is okay with me. I can’t blame them…it can be unsettling to hand your brand new baby over to a stranger! But these parents were so…calm and quiet and at ease. It was like they had done this 100 times. They relaxed and let me do my thing! Thanks Mom and Dad, and congratulations on your beautiful little boy!

Party of Six

So people assume then they aren’t hearing much from a photographer’s blog, things must be SLOW. Not many clients, not much going on. Um…OPPOSITE! When the flood gates open, and you have barely enough hours in the day to see straight, the blog is the first thing to go! Sorry, my friends, but I let it happen to me. And so, between the summer rush and the fall rush I have about 10 days, and I will make every attempt to use that time to get some of my summer sessions onto the blog. The world needs to see the cuteness!

A great experiment!

This poor, poor Mom and Dad! They came to me last week for a newborn session and I was fresh off the plane from a trip to Spain. When I arrived at the studio that morning, I found that my A/C had kicked the bucket. And it was HOT. Now many peers of mine who are photographers SWEAR by keeping their studios at 90+ degrees for newborn sessions…the theory being that if baby is warm and cozy, even naked, they will sleep. I have never had the nerve to actually subject my clients to those kinds of temperatures and have not ever been able to test it out. Until this session! We didn’t have a choice but to put up with super high temperatures. And either she was the most laid back baby I have ever photographed, or there is something to this temperature thing…she slept the WHOLE time…a total gem!

This family just welcomed baby #4. FOUR! I sooo admire them and the amount of patience they must have been blessed with to be able to handle being a family of six so gracefully. There were points in the session where none of the kids wanted to be part of it, and Mom and Dad didn’t stress, didn’t yell, they just laughed and took it in stride. LOVE those kinds of families…
