Newborn Photography Portraits That Keep Your Baby Comfortable For today’s newborn photography portraits, we welcomed one-week-old Sebastian. Because newborns are often easy to position and naturally calm, we love photographing infants during these early days. In fact, Sebastian was a dream to work with. As a result, we were able to create many amazing images from his newborn photo shoot. When working with a calm infant, it is also a great time to use photography props. Not only do props provide comfort for the child, but they also add eye-catching appeal to each portrait. Therefore, we always make sure every infant we work with is well cared for throughout the newborn photography session. For example, comfy blankets, soft hats, and gentle swaddling can add comfort while helping the baby stay calm during pictures. Here are some examples: Personal Touches for Newborn Photography Portraits For this newborn photography session, the family wanted to add personal elements to Sebastian’s photos. Specifically, they had a custom dinosaur hat made because they thought it would go perfectly with his newborn pictures. In addition, Etsy is a great place to find unique photography props for newborn photography portraits. The creator of this adorable hat also has her own Etsy shop. You can view her store and products here. Newborn With Hat[/caption] They also wanted to include meaningful elements from the church where Sebastian’s father is the campus pastor. As a result, the images felt even more personal to the family. Moreover, we love when families can incorporate their everyday life, favorite places, and meaningful details into their photos. Family Portraits During a Newborn Photography Session Finally, we always want the infant’s family to be part of the newborn photography session. When parents join in, we are able to try different lighting techniques and create even more beautiful newborn portraits. For these images, for instance, we cast shadows to add depth while still highlighting the soft colors that were present. Consequently, the final portraits captured both Sebastian’s sweetness and the family’s connection. Book Your Newborn If you are looking for a photographer, view our photographic services here.

Newborn Photography | Baby Jamie

Today we had the opportunity to photograph baby Jamie. We photographed her at our downtown Norfolk studio. Many parents schedule their newborn baby photography weeks or months before their due date. Scheduling early ensures that we’ll be available to photograph the newborn while the baby is between 5 days and 2 weeks old. Babies settle into poses easily at this time. (Click on images to view larger) Jamie was actually 3 weeks old. She had contracted a cold right before her original scheduled session. Luckily, we were able to photographer her soon after. She was a perfect, tiny model. Mom and Dad relaxed as they grabbed a snack in our waiting area. The studio is visible from the comfort of the waiting area. They could watch Scott and I hard at work. We placed Jamie in a variety of adorable poses. Photographing newborns is one of the most rewarding photo shoots that we do. When we capture the perfect image of someone’s precious child, the results are priceless. Newborn Photography Highlights There are so many highlights for me when photographing newborns. My favorite part of photographing any baby is getting her in the perfect position. I strive to capture that once in a lifetime portrait. With newborns, sometimes it’s easy and sometimes that takes a bit of work. My favorite image from Jamie’s photo shoot is the photograph of her on the vintage scale and steamer trunk. We love to be able to incorporate authentic vintage props into our newborn portraits. At the studio, we have a variety of props that are prefect for newborns. We invite you to take a look at other newborn photography on our newborn photography gallery.

Newborn Portraits | Ashton

Newborn Portraits in Our Norfolk Studio Meet sweet Ashton. How can you not adore newborn portraits? Oh, how I wish we had come into the photography industry when our children were babies. To be able to capture moments like these are priceless. Newborn portraits take patience and time. The atmosphere needs to be just right for these little guys. A little white noise, a little heater, lots of soft things like blankets, wraps and hats and lots of love make the photo session perfectly peaceful. Sweet baby Ashton was the model client. With the right balance of the atmosphere and some rocking, it was time to photograph him. We have photographed his family for years and enjoyed seeing this new addition. Do you see his sister? We photographed her mommy and daddy their entire pregnancy and then photographed her at just 5 days old! I feel like I’m an important part of my clients lives and that’s a wonderful compliment!
