Meet Baby R

Have you ever seen a more beautiful baby?  As a Brandon FL newborn photographer I get to see a lot of babies. So I know I can’t pick the most beautiful baby. Clearly, if you look at the blog, you can see I am lucky enough to meet so many lovely babies. But man, this little newborn girl has to be a contender for the most beautiful baby ever. The whole family is just as sweet as they are lovely. I am so glad they contacted me to photograph their little one.

Baby R was a bit older than a typical “newborn” at a newborn photo session, but her time in the NICU meant that was the way it had to be. I am so glad she was able to do these photos. As a NICU mama myself, I know how much stress that time puts on us as parents. Feeling like you can’t do photos after they come home and are older than the typical two week newborn timeframe is an added stress. While we may not be able to accomplish every “newborn” type pose, we can still do photos. This sweet girl dictated when we did the photos and how she much she wanted to pose. Of course, in my opinion, being wide awake, during newborn pictures is not a problem at all. Just look at those beautiful brown eyes!!

The absolutely sweetest big brother ever. You can see the beautiful genes run strong in this family. I loved this sweet and simple sibling shot. We accomplished this sibling newborn pose by simply laying baby on the couch. I had her mama spotting her in the front and side (camera right). Then I had her relaxed big brother lay gently on her tummy. Lastly, the blanket they were lying on was pulled back over the couch. I love the closeness of their faces and the perspective of her tininess that the image gives. 

Expecting a baby now and want the ease of an in-home newborn session? Contact me while you are still pregnant. The best time set up your newborn pictures is before your baby arrives. I set aside time in my schedule with flexibility for early arrivals and delays, too. I communicate with you about your style and favorite colors to get a plan for your session in place even before your baby arrives. New moms know that sleep becomes even harder to come by after baby arrives!

Are you worried about a messy house? Or not having enough space? Trust me, I can make any situation work. This family had JUST moved in before our session, and it still worked out perfectly. Moving boxes are easy to shoot around and the biggest focus will always be on your connection with your baby. Email me today to find out more about the newborn packages.
