Baby Bryce | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Posted in atlanta newborn photographer, babies

Remember a few weeks ago I posted a pregnant belly and told you all to guess if it was a boy or a girl?  Well baby boy Bryce came by the studio today for his newborn session.  I’m telling you, these Atlanta babies are being so good to me!  They are all so very very sleepy!  It’s so important for newborn photo sessions to take place within the first few weeks while the babies are still sleepy and bendy, and before newborn acne kicks in, so his Mommy and Daddy get a gold star for coming in asap after he was born!

Bryce was so cute, I think he was one of the most cooperative newborns I’ve met.  His big brother even flew in to town to be a part of our session, he looked so proud and happy to have a new little brother.  His Mom & Dad are so cute too, lots of smiley faces today from them.  They say pregnant women glow but his Mommy was just beaming, glowing, on cloud nine.  Bryce only fussed one time and his Dad talked to him softly and rocked him back to sleep.  I don’t know about you but seeing a Dad with his new baby is the coolest thing ever, it totally changes them.

Here are a few from our session this afternoon…

With his big brother

See what I mean about how sleepy he was, PERFECT!!!!

And with his beautiful Mama, she is so much fun, we just giggled the entire time.

Well I was 50% Accurate at least on the sex of the baby. But I know now not to quit my day job to become a psychic! lol

Angela,

Glad you are having your share of sleepy babies. It makes it soooo much easier.My last one was a dream baby…slept the whole time. But I have had my share of fussy ones.
Anyway, great pictures and such a cute big brother.

Thanks for sharing,
Elaine

Baby Jasper | Atlanta Newborn Photographer

Posted in atlanta newborn photographer, babies, newborn portraits

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

Posted in newborn portraits

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!

Just a little early

Posted in newborn portraits

I’m impatient, it’s so hard to wait for things, like right this instant I’m going bananas because August seems so so very far away until we go on our family vacation.  By the time August comes you all will be so glad that I’m finally going so that I will stop talking about it.  So I instantly knew that I would get along well with my newborn baby client this morning because he doesn’t like to wait for things either.  I traveled to El Segundo to meet baby J and his Mommy & Daddy for his very first portrait session.  Mr. J decided to arrive five weeks before his due date!  He was ready to take on the world, no more holding him back, he was tired of waiting.  So of course my first question for his Mom – wow, so was he in the Nicu? Did he have any problems.  Nope, he came out perfect in every way, and came home a few days after he arrived.  He is now three weeks old, but technically not due for another two weeks.  Wow that’s a lot of math.  ;)

I think he got the memo from the other newborns that I see, because he just wanted to stay up and party with us, sleeping is for babies he said, he’s 3 weeks old, a man about town.  But finally when we were almost done, he decided to give in and just sleep.  He was such a good baby for us today, and his Mom & Dad were beaming with pride and were so kind and gentle.  I had a wonderful time and thank you to the G family for welcoming me to your home!

Here are a few photos from our time together…

I love how he has his tongue stuck out!

Then he decided he was tired…

His Mom had an idea that she wanted to try!  I think if we had waited a few days later we couldn’t have done it, he was almost too long already, but I think we did great and it’s so cute.

and since he was sleeping so well for us, we just took him around the house and started putting him places, like his Dad’s desk…(the G is for his last name)

Check back in a day or so as I’ll be sharing some client photos of a special Birthday Boy.

He looks so alert & filled out for a 5 week preemie! Kudos to mom for trying the wagon shot, it is just adorable! And Dad just has to get the one on the desk big for his office! That would sure remind him of just why he works so hard, lol!

Awhh what a great shot with the wagon. I can see a series coming with a wagon. First this one, then one when he can sit up in a wagon and then one when he is old enough to pull a wagon by himself. Adorable!
