Happy first birthday, Felicity and welcome to the baby photographer Cleveland blog! My goodness, isn’t she just a doll?? She was seriously so happy and chill for her session, I could have played with her all day. I doubt her mom and dad would have been willing to stay that long though. I really do have the best job in the world!

Felicity’s mom requested simple, neutral sets with florals. My favorite! I couldn’t help but pull out this fun hot air balloon though. How fun is it for a change up?

Oh that little grin! And all those teeth! She looks like she’s ready for a steak dinner, don’t you think? This background by Intuition Backgrounds is always a fav0rite for little girls.

Check out those shoes! I wish they made them in my size! Then again, it’s probably a good thing that they don’t. I’d totally dress like the babies then.

Ah, the classic baby in a bucket never fails. How gorgeous is she? Really!

This teddy bear came along for the session. It’s so adorable how much she loves this bear and is so fun to incorporate! I always recommend bringing along a favorite toy and non messy snack, not only does it provide a great distraction but prop as well!

Quinn’s Newborn Session

Welcome to the newborn photography Akron Ohio blog, Quinn! This little sweetie I had the privilege of meeting when she was just hours old at the hospital for her momma’s fresh 48 session. Only twelve days passed between then and her newborn session, but my goodness, she had changed so much in that amount of time! It is so amazing how quickly these little ones grow over the first year!

I met Quinn’s momma at her maternity session and am so thrilled to be documenting her first year. They are such a sweet family and gorgeous on top of it! This picture of these two beauties just melts my heart.

The potato sack pose is always a go to for me, especially with alert babies like Quinn. It keeps them nice and cozy while we get a variety of sets. Keeping the little ones happy is my top priority- a happy baby makes for a great gallery of photos (not to mention helps mommas relax).

The simplest photos are almost always my favorite- so timeless! How sweet are those back rolls?? Certainly not as cute on me, that’s for sure! Love this sweet tie back by Created By Carli and the lace backdrop by Roses and Ruffles.

Quinn’s momma requested this set up, the posing pod is such a versatile little prop! She’s just chilling there, baby style.

Jackie’s Maternity Session

Oh how I love photographing Canton Ohio maternity photographer sessions! It gives me a great opportunity to meet the mommas before they welcome their little ones and we can create some gorgeous images for them to remember this special time. Isn’t pregnancy miraculous?? It certainly suits Jackie! She is one glowing expectant momma.

We had such a nice summer evening for Jackie’s maternity session! Evenings are the best time to shoot outside since the lighting is soft and flattering, not to mention it is cooler!

How gorgeous is this gown from Sew Trendy on her? I love the lace and how it shows off her bump!

We had a lot of fun playing dress up- with so many gowns to choose from in my collection, it was easy to get a good variety quickly!

If you follow my blog at all, this bridge most likely looks familiar! This park is one of my go to spots! Not only is it gorgeous, but there is such a great range of backgrounds with great lighting! Thinking of doing an outdoor session? I’ve got plenty of options.

Isn’t she just gorgeous? And so sweet! I’m so thrilled that I will be able to watch her little one grow over this year. I feel like I won the client jackpot! <3

Emelia Grace’s Newborn Session

Emelia Grace’s Newborn Session

Brunswick Ohio Photographer

Welcome little Miss Emelia Grace to the blog! Little Miss came for her session Brunswick Ohio photographer session at 12 days new and my goodness, what a little love! Emelia broke my summer run of boys, so it was super fun to pull out pink, headbands, and bows. Everything that we love in our house of girls. <3

Emelia’s mom requested simple, neutral sets- my favorite! I love how it shows off all those sweet little features- it will always be timeless.

There is something so sweet about a little lacy bonnet. This one is from The Original Photoblock Props, it’s so dainty and sweet! And of course if you have read any of my other blog posts, you are familiar with my love for everything neutral.

Goodness, what a sweet and gorgeous family! I love family images~ there is nothing more special than when when two becomes three. <3

Backlit images are growing on me- so airy and clean! My gosh, isn’t her momma glowing? Motherhood sure does look great on her!

I don’t get too many requests for green, but oh how I love when I do. It’s certainly a color that is growing on me- every time I use it, it’s my favorite set. This green layer is from Buttercup Baby Props.

Ah, the potato sack pose….babies love it and so do parents. This floral halo from Baby Bliss Props was momma’s favorite, so of course we had to use it a few times!

I get so many requests for the wreath that I decided to make something a little different for Emelia’s session. Although I’m not terribly crafty, give me a hot glue gun and florals, and I will go to town. 😉

Cruz Newborn

Akron Newborn Photography

Cruz’s Session

Welcome, little Cruz to the blog! This little guy was anxious to make his arrival into the world. Plenty of time his Akron newborn photography session. He came 5 weeks early, the day after his momma’s maternity session! We had such rainy weather and kept rescheduling her session, I’d say we had it just in the knick of time!

Often when scheduling newborn session, expecting mommas aren’t sure how it will work. After all babies come on their own time frame! When a little one arrives well before their due date, we have up to two weeks after their due date to get their session done. This leaves plenty of time for them to grow and gain strength, especially since they are likely to have a NICU stay. So when Cruz arrived for his newborn session, he was a few weeks old but that is not a problem. Developmentally, they are still in womb mode so sleepy shots are not a problem!

I just am absolutely loving greens lately! This bucket from Rozzie Rayn Props had just arrived and of course I had to use it for Cruz’s newborn session! And I love how cozy he looks, all swaddled. He is nice and cozy, just as his was in his momma’s womb.

Babies in buckets never get old, do they?? I think not! This variation of layering props is totally in trend right now in the newborn photography world. It’s always fun to mix up an old favorite!

Thank you so much for stopping by the blog! If you like what you see, you may want to check out similar sessions or stop by the newborn information page to learn more. The best time to schedule your newborn session is while you are expecting, although occasionally I will have a last minute opening. Please contact me to inquire about pricing and availability.
