Finn - Newborn Session

It was an honor to be invited back to the P Family’s home to capture their newest addition, Finn William. Although his arrival came quickly after Big Sister’s, it is clear he was meant-to-be as he is surrounded by so much love. We started off his session with some family pictures, as his parents and siblings showed him such affection.

We then moved on to his basket pictures, where he was an absolute dream for the camera. Although little mister was awake for most of these shots, he was pleasant and oh-so-cute with his little smiles and kissy faces!

I always enjoy capturing the little details and candid moments in black and white. There is something about a colorless image that draws the eye more deeply onto the subject.

It was fun to meet you, Finn! Welcome to our world!

Esra - Newborn Session

Precious Esra joins big sister Nelle and fur sister Maisie, keeping the femininity strong in their household! For Esra’s session, we first wrapped her in blue to match her nursery. Mommy & Daddy didn’t know if they were having a boy or another girl, so they went with the gender-neutral theme of stars and moons. They were also inspired by the beautiful Psalm 147:4 “He determines the number of stars and calls them each by name.”

I absolutely love the oversized cable-knit sweater trend that is happening for newborns right now. Esra looked so snuggly matching with Big Sis.

We ended the session by recreating a favorite purple look from her Big Sister’s session two and a half years ago. The girls looked nearly identical at birth, so we had to get some of the same shots for Mommy to compare and treasure.

I can’t wait to see Esra again in several months for her mid-year session! Welcome to our planet, sweet little star!

Ryan - Newborn Session

It was a pleasure meeting Baby Ryan and his family for his at-home session. It’s clear that the whole family is in love with their newest member, and I think the feeling is mutual seeing how Ryan lovingly stared at his family - especially Mama! By the end of our session, he was sleepy and settled, so we were able to do a “froggy” pose to match the framed newborn photo of big sis Mary.

Welcome to the world, Ryan!

Emma Grace - Newborn Session

The beautiful Emma Grace (and her gorgeous head of hair) came a few weeks earlier than expected - due to be an Easter peep, but arriving as a lucky charm the day before St. Patrick’s Day. She slept peacefully all through her session, and even pursed her lips and smiled a few times. She was a dream to photograph, and I can’t wait to watch her grow over the next year!

Elliotte Grace - Newborn Session

This darling angel Elliotte Grace surprised her family a few weeks earlier than expected, but is doing so well. She slept soundly for most of her session, and wasn’t bothered by a thing. Along with her styled shots, we also got an amazing first family photo with “big brother” Winston included! It was a pleasure capturing your precious face, Ellie!

Nixon Thomas - Newborn Session

Baby Nixon was the perfect bundle of joy to start off my year of newborns! Weighing in at nearly 10 lbs, and sporting such a perfect head of hair, he was an absolute sweetheart. After a few family shots, Nixon got cozy and warm, and slept for the remainder of his session like an angel. It was my pleasure to capture another sweet baby boy for the K Family!

Finnegan Reid - Newborn Session

I am so appreciative to have helped the B Family welcome all three of their babies with newborn sessions. Their third, Finnegan Reid, is adorable just like his siblings. His mommy is a librarian (hence that perfect middle name), so of course we had to incorporate a little bit of literary art with the sweet Peter Rabbit sign that was gifted to her for the nursery. I always love when families want to put a meaningful special touch in their pictures.

Welcome, Finn!
