Welcoming a second baby boy

I was so excited to get to photograph this sweet family’s second baby boy after working with them for their first son’s first year milestones. It was fun to see big brother as an almost-two-year-old, and his baby bro was SO alert and aware of my camera! I love getting eye contact in newborn photos!

Leo the Lion’s newborn photos

Leo was the first baby in my brand new studio, and he made it absolutely perfect! He was so cooperative and adorable and I had such a blast with his session. Incorporating some fall shots was extra fun, and the lion outfit his momma brought was amazing. I got to photograph his big sister’s newborn photos a couple years before, and she had the most adorable lips and chubby cheeks too!

Maverick’s Newborn Photos & Wild One Milestone Plan

I got to photograph this sweet boy’s first year before I moved to California, and I’m updating this blog post to reflect that I’m now a Newborn Photographer in Menifee CA.

Enjoy Maverick’s newborn photos! I was so excited to have him on my 3 month milestone plan and his momma chose to do a Wild One theme for his first year!

Best time for newborn photos {Beautiful Ava}

When is the best time for newborn photos? I’ve found that 5-10 days old is ideal, but if you’ve missed this window, contact me anyway! Babies under 2 weeks old tend to be more sleepy for photos, and their skin tends to be a little more calm. After birth, baby’s skin tends to break out, peel, or become red or jaundiced…but that’s ok! Experienced newborn photographers can work their editing magic to make your perfect baby’s skin look smoothe and perfect (unless you’d like to request having your baby’s skin left as is, of course).

Preemies often need a little more time before coming in for photos too. I’ve photographed newborns up to 8 weeks old, and although newborn photos under 2 weeks is recommended, it’s definitely not a deal-breaker.

Now on to showing off little Ava…what a beautiful baby! Her momma came with lots of fun ideas in mind for her newborn photos, and it was such a blast to get to capture them for her. And what a beautiful momma she is too! It’s always tough to come up with adequate words when the photos do a much better job to speak for themselves…

Baby girl is the prettiest preemie!

This sweet girl arrived a month early and we ended up having to reschedule due to jaundice. Once she was all better, we scheduled her photos and she was a total dream for her session!
