Why photos of your baby are so important the first year.
Nesting and prepping for the baby are all very typical things I was doing last year in anticipation of our second baby. You could find me in the garage cleaning it out. Or on the countertop painting the ceiling, ya know, important things our newborn will surely notice. I look back now and wonder what goes on in a womanβs body to do such strange things haha! Tell me I am not the only expected mother to do that!
Really, in the end, all that matters are the memories that you make. I am here to tell you momma I am 6 months into our first year and it has gone SO FAST. So here is my promise to you as your photographer and friend.
All the sleepless nights, and caffeinated mornings, will wiz by with your new squishy little love. Who might I say will soon be rolling, sitting, crawling, and WALKING! My ultimate goal is to freeze these moments in time that you will never be able to get back. I want you to see a canvas, or hold an album in your hand to take you back to that moment in time.
Details you think you would never forget, fade. Photos bring life back into those years past and you can, even for a short moment relive that tiny human.
I will create something you can keep forever and preserve your gorgeous little baby.
The soft fuzzy hair, big yawns, and sleepy milk-drunk goodness of a newborn is quickly replaced with the star-fished fingers of a sitter and get away attitude of a year-old babe!
Newborn sessions with Littles + Bigs are so much more than getting your photos taken. It in itself is the first chapter in your life as a family or a family with this precious new sibling.
Your bundle of squish is my actual client and the focus will be on them! I customize each session with help from you. I will know the details of your nursery should you have them, how you met your spouse, and your favorite icecream and football team!
I consider myself a seasoned newborn photographer (almost 5 years). Going on 7 years of motherhood. I can say with confidence that your baby is safe and secure in my studio.
My studio prides itself on making this experience relaxed and memorable for parents, and Iβll have your favorite drinks in the fridge and snacks. So leave it up to me to prep. All you have to do it show up and get relax.
Ideally, I would love to book you in the second trimester. I only take on a limited number of sessions each month and a fraction of those are newborns because of the nature of the sessions. New babies are typically in the studio between 7-14 days old ( adjustments are made when babies arrive early and late). I am so thrilled you would consider me and look forward to hearing from you!
