I joined Alice and her family by the fire for this cozy in home family session. No better excuse to cuddle up and share the love!

Baby Eden slept like a champ throughout her in studio newborn session. I love getting to take my time capturing many different poses and setups, and it’s not always the case that I can! The pinks and purples are so girly and dreamy, swoooooon.

After witnessing the beautiful home birth of their daughter the week before, I had the privilege of seeing this family again to take newborn pictures.  The session was at their home. Big brother was so excited about his new sister – it was sweet to see!

With pleasure I got to work with baby Cameron and his parents in their home. As you can see he was a super sleeper for me. He even gave me the biggest smile. Welcome sweet one!

Julianna’s mom wrote last week to schedule her daughter’s one year pictures. ONE YEAR?!?!? She’s one already???? How did that happen? Seeing as I hadn’t yet blogged her newborn session, I decided I had better get on that!

Her mom and I have talked about this – so I am not sharing anything she doesn’t know – but Julianna was one of my more challenging newborns of 2012. We sailed through the “lifestyle” photos in the beginning without issue. However once it was time for her to fall asleep and let me pose her, that’s when difficulty started.

It took a couple of hours and me coming back the next day for us to realize that I was only going to get one pose out of Julianna per nursing. So it went a little like this – mom nursed her to sleep, we would get her on the beanbag, bowl, etc in a pose, I would snap the picture, I would try to move her to the next pose, she would wake and cry. Repeat.

Despite the difficulties, the pictures from the session were beautiful. I couldn’t be happier to have worked with such a lovely family. And I am happy to say that mom reports that Julianna is a much happier babe.

Baby William’s mom was so sweet in writing me at 39 weeks wanting a maternity session. She joked it was a nesting thing! Sadly I was about to board a plane to go to a workshop to sharpen my skills in newborn posing/photography followed by a family vacation. By the time I got back, this little one was almost two weeks old, so I had the pleasure of taking his newborn photos.

I still remember the morning. It was cold and slick from a snowfall. I questioned why it was that I do on location newborn shoots as I lugged all my gear up the steps to their home. Being in the city, in St. Paul, the plows hadn’t quite been through to clear everything away.

However once inside I was reminded why I do what I do. Baby William was all snuggled up with his mom. It was nice and toasty in the house – perfect for a newborn shoot. Grandma was there too loving on her new grandson. Having just returned from my workshop, I got to use my new skills. I simply love the results!

This little guy surprised everyone by arriving early. As a result he needed to spend his first several weeks in the NICU.  Once home, I got to meet all five pounds of him! He was by far one of my easiest newborns to pose – perhaps due to being early or still so little – I am not sure. Whatever it was, I was able to get so many beautiful of the pictures of him and his parents.

I was so hoping to be at this little girl’s birth. When her mom and I talked about it, I knew I was scheduled for vacation a couple days after she would hit week 42. However this was her second child and what was the chance of her lasting past week 42?  Well, I guess the chance was good because that is actually what happened. So rather than birth pictures, I got to meet baby Philomena, a.k.a Poppy, a little over a week after she was born to do newborn pictures.

My daughter and I have been witness to our favorite Occupational Therapist’s pregnancy the past nine months. We were thrilled when we heard that baby Jameson made his entrance! Here are a few “peeks” of our session together.

Where has the time gone? I can’t believe it has taken me a month to get pictures of Baby Voss up on the blog. I got to meet this cutie on Memorial Day along with mom, dad and big sister. He was such a sweetie!!
