Baby L | Fresh 48 | Portland Oregon

Late last year I was contacted by a sweet mom getting ready to celebrate the arrival of her second son.  She was referred by a past client and it was no surprise we clicked right away.  After spending about 45 minutes on the phone planning her Fresh 48 and newborn sessions, I just couldn't wait to hear from her that Baby L had arrived!  There is nothing like a mom's intuition, and sure enough, just as she thought, he arrived early and just days before Christmas.  Babies grow and change so quickly that I love being asked to document their newness at the hospital.  Here are just a few of my favorite images from that day!

As I'm packing up the car for this little guys newborn shoot I wanted to share a few of my favorites from his in hospital fresh 48 newborn session.  I've really enjoyed meeting his parents this year and documenting all the wonderful stages of his sweet little life!  Which reminds me, I need to blog their maternity session too, lol.  For now, I'll leave you with these beautiful images <3

Baby R | 7 Days New | Four Jays Photography Newborn Session

I feel so incredibly fortunate when I get referrals from people I have never met before.  This wonderful family contacted me after their postpartum doula showed them some of my work.  I don't know her, or who she is even, but I'm so thankful that she sent these sweet moms my way.  Here are a few of my favorites from our session last month!

Welcome Baby V | Portland, Oregon | Newborn Photography

I had the recent pleasure of photographing this newborn for an incredibly kind and generous family who have opened up their hearts and home to this sweet little girl in need of temporary guardianship.  It was such an honor to be able to capture her newness and the details for her biological or forever family to cherish in the future.

The love within this new family of 3 radiated throughout their home making the session flow beautifully.  I am beyond pleased to announce the arrival of Sander, and share a few of my favorite captures from our newborn session together.
