closeOh how I love babies!! This past week I was just thinking on how blessed I am, just about every other week this year, I have been able to meet and photograph a new little one. It is amazing how their families let me into their lives on these first precious days. Here are some of the tiny moments this sweet family let me into!
It was last minute. They decide to come to the place where I was already doing a session just for one last maternity session. Not knowing that their little one would arrive only 20 hours later. Right after a beautiful rain storm, the sun was setting and the fall field was aglow with the beautiful golden light, we were able to get some photos of Julia while still inside here mommy!
Love the photo of the shoes – parents’ and the baby-to-be’s – side by side!
One can never have enough photos of precious moments like these. Good job, Karen, especially considering the folks you had to work with. LOL! My nephew and niece-in-love ARE photogenic!
I just love baby girls and all the fun girly items that come along with them! This little one and her family brought me so many smiles and laughs as she totted around discovering her surroundings and looking as cute as ever in her pearls and lace!
This little gem was born to a precious family that I have had the privilege photographing since they were married. It is a complete bleeding to watch families grow and change, and already I am sure these little ones have changed since this shoot!
These next few weeks I am taking you back to those warm summer days. In the midst of the chilling cold, there are plenty of photos to be had, but I am craving the warmth of summer and this family embodies the fullness of a Minnesota summer day. The lake, a festival, and a warm summer breeze only added to the fun I had with the Childs family!
From their engagement session, to their wedding, to the birth of their first daughter and now to their second, it’s been a joy and honor to be able to photograph couples like the Wargo’s as their life changes.
It’s what makes my job so meaningful and fulfilling! Congratulations Hannah and Jake, your family is beautiful!
Including siblings in your newborn session… yes or no?
My answer is always yes.
It might feel a little chaotic in the moment, but those are often the images you end up treasuring the most—the real connection, the tiny interactions, the beginning of a new family story.
I’ve loved watching the Luong family grow through all three of their children’s newborn sessions, and those sibling moments are always some of my favorites.
If you’re wondering how it all works (and how we make it easy), I wrote a full blog post about it! Check it out in my stories
