I loved seeing Bianca at her maternity session.  She is a beautiful mama and radiates peace and love for her new baby son. He is precious, although he didn’t want to sleep during our session together. The best part about an at-home newborn session is allowing the baby to be comfortable. Everyone is happier when they’re in their own space.

Why do I love newborn sessions? So many reasons. The first is seeing families again. I enjoy photographing maternity images, so seeing them ready to add to their family and then a few weeks later with baby in arms is amazing! Capturing the time when life is a complete blur is an honor. The first few weeks with a new baby are sleep deprived, delirious, giddy, exhausting, frustrating, exhilarating times. All of the human emotions come out in full force. I find I cannot remember the intricate details of my new baby years later, and I love photographing newborns for this reason. To give parents the gift of memory on film.
