NEWBORNS - LIFESTYLE

 

Planning: You and I will have a phone call to meet, discuss babies due date, as well as how to schedule the photoshoot once baby has arrived.  I prefer to photograph the baby within 1 week (because they are generally smaller, more curled up, sleepier and less hungry). But I realize this is not always possible for many reasons, and don't require it. 

 

Me and my style: I include parents in the majority of the photos because a newborn is often more content in their parents arms, and I can get a variety of photos even if they are crying. I have photographed over 1000 babies and find comfort in every new one I meet!  My own babies weren't very sleepy, so I know how to handle the babies who cry and feed on repeat.  I consider my style to be Lifestyle (which appears more candid than the popular "posed" solo baby photos, made popular by Anne Geddes).
