Baby W was one very sleepy little man.  He slept his way through his sister’s whole session.  In fact, I almost forgot he was there!  He woke up for some lunch and soon fell back to sleep for his own debut!  Definitely one dreamy little newborn.  I was also impressed with his big sister lasting over FOUR hours in our studio!  I don’t think I’ve ever seen a two year old make it that long being so well behaved.  I can already tell she is going to be an amazing big sister.  Thank you for the wonderful day H family!

I have had the pleasure of photographing baby D since she was born.  Her parents were some of my first newborn clients.  I traveled out to their home in Boston and baby D slept like a dream on my little bean bag set up by their sliding glass door.  Later I traveled out to celebrate D’s first birthday with a fabulous cake smash on Bunker Hill.  I was so excited when I heard soon after that session they were expecting again!  One of the best parts of my job is sharing in the good news of families as they grow.  Last week D and her family traveled to my studio for back-to-back sessions.  The first was for D’s second birthday and the second was a newborn session for D’s new little brother.  D is up first, so here is her sneak peek!

Stop. it. right. now.  Just when you think your day couldn’t handle any more adorableness, here are the H twins to make life even more precious.  These two were a dream to photograph.  I could just stare at their perfect little details all day.  Once again, I have too many new favorites to count.  I can’t wait to watch these two grow over the coming year.  Enjoy your sneak peek!

O’s session was so perfect I want to share the whole thing here, but I must leave a few surprises for mom and dad in their gallery!  So here are just a couple of peeks.  Baby O was a doll.  Perfect little features and fabulous hair.  How could she not be?   Just look at how gorgeous mom is.  I’ll tell you, every picture of me as a new mom is banned from being shown publicly!  haha  Such a beautiful family and such a joy to capture.  Enjoy your sneak peek!

I had a blast with 3 year old R last week. She reminded me SO MUCH of my daughter who will be turning 3 in July. I know they would be fast friends. R was smart, full of personality, and loved all things girlie…. oh, and as you can see, totally gorgeous! Turned out to be a really easy session for me because with someone at home just like her, I knew just how to get her to have fun in front of the camera! Enjoy your preview!

I’ve had the pleasure of photographing these two gorgeous sisters since C was one year old.  Mom soon had an announcement for us.  S was on the way!  These two couldn’t be more opposite.  C does not like having her picture taken one bit.  S would sit and smile at the camera all day long.  My goal going into this session was just to get a single image of both girls smiling at the camera!  I’m happy to report that we got it.  In fact, I think C might just be warming up to me and my camera because I captured more images of her smiling than ever!

Here they are then:

And now!

Remember this little peanut??

I was so thrilled when I heard that the G family was traveling back up from New York to celebrate A’s first birthday at our studio!  We paired up with Sweet Indulgence to make a cake smash fit for a princess.  A’s beauty was breathtaking, but what was even more fun to capture was her love of that cake!  The cake was so good that mom and dad grabbed forks at the end to finish it off!  Enjoy your preview and happy birthday A!

One of my favorite babies of all time, baby O

is now a BIG SISTER!

Well little brother N is one gorgeous baby too!  I had so much fun catching up with the M family at our session last week and loved having the opportunity to help welcome baby N.  He started the session wide awake (yes he has big blue eyes so far too!)  then finally fell fast asleep for some perfect newborn photos.  Check out that huge smile in the last image.  I’m so lucky to have such ADORABLE clients!  Enjoy your preview!

My second newborn of the day last Friday was also a baby C!  I must admit that I was a little nervous going into this session.  Baby C was diagnosed with hip dysplasia at birth and now wears a little brace to help her hips set into place.  I was unsure if I would be able to accomplish all of the sweet sleepy newborn poses that her parents had fallen in love with when they booked and I didn’t want them to be disappointed with the session.  But mom and dad insisted that it didn’t matter to them.  This was baby C, at this moment in time and they wanted to capture it.  When I met them I knew instantly that they were more in love with this little girl than with any silly pose.  And capturing THAT was a far greater accomplishment!  Baby C was perfect in every way.  Turns out I had nothing to worry about because she was a breeze to photograph!  She loved being posed and smiled throughout our entire session together.  I was certainly reminded of why I love this job so much.  Thank you for trusting me with your gorgeous baby girl mom and dad!  Enjoy your sneak peek.

Last Friday we had back-to-back newborn sessions in the studio.  While that usually exhausts me, I must say that these two girls were both so precious that I didn’t want my day to end!  Baby C was the first little girl I was able to cuddle.  We had a brand new garden planted so I even enjoyed taking a few shots of the flowers during her mid-session feeding.  When I received my first digital SLR as a gift from Shaun back when we were dating, flowers were the subject of almost every image I took.  I loved playing with light and composition and depth of field.  There is something so calming about getting lost in the details of a flower.  Today I feel the same way about a sleeping newborn.  I guess photography is my meditation!  Of course a flower doesn’t hold a candle to the beauty of baby C.  Thank you for the amazing session!
