Baby C Newborn Session

A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of meeting Baby C and taking some photos of her. Her mom is one of my closest friends and I was so excited to meet her new baby! I have no doubt that Baby C will be great friends with my new baby since they will only be four months apart.

Newborn Photo Shoot: My Presidential Nephew

This last week I had the privilege of spending time taking pictures of this cute little guy. He's my newest nephew and is amazingly cute! I already know he loves his auntie because he stayed awake the whole time and couldn't stop staring at my camera. Congratulations again to my sister and brother-in-law!

PS - Ask me in person if you're curious about my nickname for the little guy.

Newborn Pictures with Baby J

Other than the pictures that I took of my daughter P at the hospital and during the first few weeks at home, this was my first chance to take pictures of a newborn baby. Baby J is three days old here and I realized during this session that taking newborn photos is definitely a whole different ball game from taking pictures of babies (even babies that are only two or three months old.) There are definitely things that I learned number one being do whatever you can to keep the baby asleep (make the room a little warmer than usual perhaps, make sure they are well fed and drowsy, etc.) Even though they remain very still, newborn photography is a lot harder than it sounds. I have a roommate from college who majored in Photography and specializes in newborns and she does an amazing job at it which I admire
