This time of year, it is a great time for outdoor newborn photo sessions. I loved meeting this sweet family in their neighborhood up in Odessa. The light at the park was just perfect, and although it definitely warmed up quickly. Still, it was still bearable in the early morning hours just as the sun came up. Since these guys are used to being up early with littles and a new baby, getting your newborn pictures done in the morning is usually a great idea! If you are currently pregnant, don’t forget to set up your newborn photo session before baby arrives for the most scheduling flexibility, too!

Spring and into summer is the perfect time for some outdoor newborn pictures in Plant City or around Tampa Bay!

I loved the colorful outdoor photos, especially with their neutral palette for the wardrobe, but there is something so timeless about black and white images. This session had more than it’s fair share of black and white newborn photos with mom’s dress in a toile fabric for sure. The dress and it’s pattern will always inspired me to create black and white versions. If you are expecting, this is a great time of year for outdoor newborn photos. The mornings work great for newborns, since they are usually happier in the morning, and it isn’t quite as hot or rainy here in Florida in the mornings, too. If you are expecting and want to do a laid back newborn photo session from the comfort of your home, I can usually find a little spot to create outdoor magic, too. 99% of the time anyway! Even if you think it wont’ look great, I can find where the light usually works best and at least give you a few options for family photos that will continue to blend together with future family photos in our gorgeous backdrops around Tampa Bay.

I just adore this family. I am so glad they moved back to the area after a few year and a few kiddos! I was lucky enough to document their oldest child at her newborn photos and now here I am photographing their latest baby. Their bookends <3 Here is a few of my favorites from their petite newborn and family photo session in Fishhawk Ranch. The petite offering for newborns allows for an hour together, with baby safe in their family’s arms for most of the session. Near the end, we wrapped up with a few simple and timeless newborn photos indoors, too.

An in home lifestyle newborn session with an added bonus of ending the session at the beach. I love being able to document families, especialy newborns, in their homes. It gives everyone more ease being in their own space. Comfort for everyone in the family, from toddler big brothers, to pup family members, everyone gets to chill and just let me document you while getting to know you and everyone’s personality.
