It feels like just yesterday that I had mom and dad in my studio for their first maternity session. Flash forward 1 1/2 years and 3 sessions and we were welcoming their newest addition, newborn baby C! C’s big brother did an awesome job despite feeling under the weather. I love all of the family portraits we captured and the one below with daddy is priceless. I love how tiny babies look in their dad’s hands. C was such a sweet baby, dreaming right through the commotion. Enjoy your sneak peek and these two little pumpkins. Happy Halloween!




Sweet, fair little S and her gorgeous family visited the studio last week for her newborn portraits. She had the most beautiful blonde hair I’ve seen in a while on a newborn. She even had enough for one of our little Framboozled flower clips to stay put. She started our session wide awake but in no time she was dreaming away on the beanbag. She smiled throughout our session, and I think I even caught one in the portrait of her in dad’s military hat. Enjoy your sneak peek! ~Heidi




I had the pleasure of meeting this family for big sister C’s first birthday cake smash just last year. I was so excited to see them on the calendar again so that I could help welcome their new baby boy! Dad was excited to bring along some of his sports gear for his little man. I actually LOVE all of the adorable Patriots themed portraits we captured and big sister C even jumped in for a few. Going through them all I can think is that they are the shots every dad would love having with his babies! Admittedly I’m a bit of a Pats fan myself, so perhaps I’m biased, but as I was taking these with A sleeping so soundly I knew they would be some new favs. A rocked his whole session. Can’t wait to show you the rest. Enjoy your sneak peek! ~Heidi



I knew baby B was going to be a handsome little man when I met his mom-to-be just a week before our session and she looked AMAZING. Before I knew it, she was back with her little bundle of joy. Mom and dad were naturals and made the shoot easy. B slept away and even flashed me quite a few smiles. Believe it or not, we’re already in full swing with Holiday photos here at the studio so we created a little seasonal set for B to snuggle into. Those portraits are some of my favorites from the whole shoot. I just love all of the warm tones of the wood and vintage sled! Enjoy your sneak peek!




We’re finally starting the process of looking into new studio space and my dream is to have a little spot outdoors that I can photograph newborns in. We’re going to be adding the option of an outdoor portion to our newborn sessions when it is warm enough, so when our good friends were in last week for a newborn session, I knew they wouldn’t mind indulging me for a few outdoor photos at the end of our session. Handsome baby O was quite cooperative too. He rocked every shot we did in the studio and then kept on sleeping right through our second location. Look out mom and dad, this little guy is dangerously adorable. Enjoy your sneak peek!






Little W was one of a wave of newborn boys we’ve had at the studio lately. September surely is the month of boys in 2012. We started our session with all of the classics and then had some fun with mom doing a few composites, like the golf bag shot below. Dad, a golf pro, hadn’t gotten to the studio yet when we created the shot so I was so excited to surprise him with how it turned out! I love how tiny W looks on that golf bag. Of course family portraits are always some of my favorites at a newborn session because I know that mom and dad will love looking back on them as their tiny little bundle of joy grows. Enjoy your sneak peek!



This is my THIRD newborn session for this gorgeous family in the past 3 years! Mom and dad now have quite the crew and still somehow manage to show up completely put together and laid back. Big brothers D (3) and D (1) were amazing with their little sister. It was fun to finally break out the girl colors and props for princess E who slept so sweetly through our session. Some of my favorite photos are of everyone interacting together. It’s so clear to see how E has completed this family when capturing everyone’s love for her. Enjoy your sneak peek!





The studio has been full of adorable newborn boys lately. L was a heart breaker already. He was super sleepy and loved to cuddle. Mom and dad were totally laid back and up for anything. We chose lots of greys and neutrals for our session which I’ve really be loving lately. I’ve gotten dozens of new blankets and hats in the past few weeks, all ready to go for fall. This little man curled right up into each set looking perfectly blissful. Enjoy your sneak peek!




I am in baby boy heaven lately! The studio has been full of newborn boys lately and I’ve been having so much fun with them. Baby L didn’t want to miss a moment of the action, so he was mostly awake for almost all of our session. I would finally get him to drift off, capture a few quick frames, and he would be up again looking for a cuddle! Luckily, he always dozed off just enough for me to pull off the shot. Whether awake or asleep, L was a happy little guy, already quite curious about the world. I captured so many smiles, it will be hard to choose favorites. I just adore the family portraits we created and they certainly made my job easy looking so perfect! Enjoy your sneak peek!




I had two handsome little newborn boys in last week and both sets of parents loved all things simple and sweet. We focused our sessions around the things I know parents will cherish the most as their babies grow; tiny little details, warm expressions, soft sleepy poses, and sweet family cuddles. Baby H was perfection. He loved curling up on the bean bag and snuggling in mom and dad’s arms. What a gorgeous family! Enjoy your sneak peek!
