~ Capturing your family from birth, and beyond~
Newborn
WIDE-EYED BABY PORTRAITS
So, you’d think that all the babies that are just born and come in for a photo shoot would be sleeping all through their sessions, right?
Well, wrong! We love it when this happens because we believe that the session should be all about the baby's expression.
Not all babies sleep during their newborn photo shoot! So, occasionally I have the pleasure of seeing the gorgeous little bundles of joy who visit me wide awake and are ready to take a good look around them.
Children
I love you more than the moon, the stars, and the sky above.
