While I always recommend families reserve their Fresh 48 or in home newborn session before baby arrives, sometimes it works out perfectly with my schedule to plan a session after baby is born. I do my best to plan ahead for sessions based on due dates, but as we all know babies arrive on their own “perfect” schedule! This can often lead to back to back newborns, but then a little break, which works out great for those who didn’t get around to reserving their session in advance! I can’t tell you how happy I am that all the pieces fell into place with this sweet family and their 3 week old daughter <3
I knew from our first phone call that this family would be an absolute delight to photograph and of course loved when they mentioned including their fur-baby (now a big sister dog) in the session as well. Although typically posed newborn photography takes place in the first 2 weeks after birth, some of my absolute best (read - sleepiest) babies have been closer to the 3 week mark. One of many reasons why I love capturing older newborns and always do my best squeeze in those after birth inquires.
And a couple quick snaps of this sweet family when I delivered their gorgeous heirloom album that was hand made in Italy. Love those smiles <3
