Emma Grace: 7 days old | Marrietta Newborn Baby Photographer

Saturday, May 30, 2009

I am *very* behind on my blogging and I have so many beautiful babies, children & families to share with you so I promise to be better with updating my blog.  My little ones are out of school so they keep me pretty busy in addition to my wonderful clients here in Atlanta.

Yesterday I went to Marietta to photograph a beautiful one week old baby girl named Emma Grace.  I did her Mommy’s maternity portraits a few months ago so it was wonderful to see her again but this time as a Mother.  Emma was so cooperative and sometimes she would even pose herself.  Her Mom, Dad & Grandma were smiling so big and beaming with pride and already have so much love for their brand new baby girl.  Here are a few portraits from our session yesterday.  Welcome to the world Emma!

Baby Anna | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Sunday, November 9, 2008

Today I traveled to Mableton to photograph a newborn baby girl who is only six days old.  I always tell my clients and potential clients that it is so important to have their newborns photographed within their first two weeks because it makes such a difference.  Anna was a true testament to that, she was so sleepy and laid back, I think I could have just sat and looked at her all day.  She almost shares a birthday with her Dad, so there were quite a few of us scorpios in the house today!  Thank you to Anna’s wonderful parents, they were amazing and so sweet and kind.

Oh, she is such a little heartbreaker at only six days old, here are a few from our morning together…

I love it when I catch babies mid-yawn, this modeling thing is hard work!

Atlanta Baby Photographer | Atlanta Baby & Child Photographer Blog | Angela Calderon - [...] Last year at this time I photographed beautiful Baby Anna shortly after she was born.  I was so excited when her Mommy told me that they wanted me to photograph her again this year.  I love love love seeing how much the babies I photograph have grown over the past year when I see them for their one year portrait sessions.  Miss Anna is *such* a sweet and beautiful little toddler.  She blows kisses and waves bye bye, oh she just melts my heart.  We had a lot of fun playing in the leaves and being silly that day.  Thank you so much B & P for inviting me back again this year.

Baby Elizabeth | Marietta Newborn Photographer

Friday, November 7, 2008

Earlier this week I traveled to Marietta to photograph a brand new baby girl.  Her beautiful Mommy came in last month for her maternity session and now I had the chance to meet her sweet baby.

Miss Elizabeth did not want to go to sleep, she liked staying up and hanging out with us.  I’m telling you, these newborns love partying with me.  She was so alert and was so tiny and cute.  Finally she got tired of us fussing with her and she took a little nap.  I love photographing newborns, its such an amazing time for their families and to see how much they change in the first year is mind boggling.

Thank you to the M family for welcoming me to your home and being so kind, it was so much fun and I can’t wait until our next portrait session!

Her Mommy had this beautiful scarf that she got when she went to Paris, I love the color and it made a perfect wrap for baby E.

Baby Jasper | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Saturday, September 13, 2008

This sweet little baby boy came to the studio earlier this week and he traveled oh so far…. about 2 minutes!  His mom was looking at the directions on how to get to the studio and realized that they were just around the corner, that’s my kind of commute!

When they arrived Jasper was wide awake and was ready to party, but let me tell you he was so good, such a sweet baby.  Although he did use his Dad for a diaper a few times, it seems like it’s always that Dad’s that babies like to do that to during photo shoots.  His parents were wonderful and obviously so in love with their sweet baby and each other.

If any of you out there have a newborn or you are a photographer who has newborn clients, I am here to tell you about something that will make your life so much better.  Baby Jasper fell right to sleep as soon as I plugged in my sound machine.  It has ten different sounds to choose from, Jasper preferred the heartbeat and the white noise options.  It’s only $19.99 from Target and as a Mom of a little one who had colic, it’s a priceless thing to have!

Here are a few little sneak peeks of this sweet little guy.

As you can see from this shot, he was starting to get sleepy, I love baby yawns, so so very cute.  I had just plugged in the sound machine just before I took this, I like how his Dad is looking at him, such a sweet moment.

He got a little hungry so his beautiful Mom nursed him and then we put the heartbeat sound on and he fell asleep.

Sweeter Than Candy | Hermosa Beach Newborn Photographer

Saturday, May 24, 2008

This afternoon I took a short drive down the freeway to beautiful Hermosa Beach to photograph a one month old baby girl. Oh my goodness we had so much fun, her parents had me laughing the entire time and they had a supply of freshly baked cookies standing by, yummy! It’s true what they say, time does really fly when you are having fun, they were such a beautiful family and just a joy to be around.

Little Miss Quinlan (isn’t that an awesome name) was a very good baby and she gave us plenty of sleepy shots and some awake ones too. I couldn’t have asked for more, she truly was a perfect little subject.

Thank you so much to Q’s Mom & Dad for having me over today for her very first portrait session and for being so sweet and kind to me. PS – those chocolate covered cookies are now on my shopping list and it’s all your fault! ;-)

Here are a few photos to share from our afternoon together…

I loved this little apothecary chest, I need one of these! Oh and check out how well she is swaddled, that’s courtesy of her Dad, he is the Yoda of swaddling.

Miss Q with her beautiful Mommy

Pretty in Pink…

With Mom & Dad and can I confess to how unfair it is to be that beautiful after you have just had a baby, goodness gracious, Mom was just glowing!
