Medina Ohio Newborn Photos

March 20, 2023

Welcome this handsome little guy’s newborn session to the Medina Ohio newborn photos blog today! Oh he was so much fun to work with! He started out the session wide awake so we got a good variety of expressions before he fell asleep. Best of both worlds!

This froggy pose was taken at the very end of the session. If your little one arrives at the studio wide awake, have no fear. They almost always get tired (especially if you followed the prep instructions). He was no exception. Once he feel asleep, he was OUT and so relaxed!

Wide awake babies make the best facial expressions. My goodness, he went from the mean mug, to smiling, to yawning. All so adorable! Mommas chose quite a few awake photos for their final Medina Ohio newborn photos selections.

That eye contact is on point! Little man seems like an old soul….don’t those eyes look wise?

Well, he finally decided that Miss Megan and I are quite boring and gave up watching us oh and ah at him. I like to call this photo the grandma shot because what grandma doesn’t love an up close of her grand baby’s face?

I love these fuzzy knit romper from Moon Light Little Knits. It fits all the babies perfectly and is so soft!

Who doesn’t love some baby toes? This is always a client favorite, it is easy to see why. Ten perfect little toes!

Thank you so much for stopping by the blog to check out these Medina Ohio newborn photos! Are you expecting a little one soon and are looking for a newborn photographer?

Please stop by the newborn portfolio to see if we might be a good match. If so, I would love to chat with you today about creating your dream session!

Cleveland Maternity Photoshoot

March 10, 2023

Welcome this gorgeous Cleveland maternity photoshoot to the blog today! Studio maternity sessions are SO much fun! This momma to be was a blast to work with- I cannot wait to meet this little guy soon!

This was the first maternity photoshoot done in our brand new space. Holy moly, so in love with the lifestyle sets and this gorgeous momma. I love how much variety this space offers with ease.

How sweet is her bump? Oh that feeling of anticipation right before your first baby arrives. It is such an exciting time full of love and hope. If only we could bottle that feeling up!

Spouses and siblings are always welcome to join your Cleveland maternity photoshoot. After all, it is an exciting time for them as well! Isn’t this baby going to be adorable? Eeeeck!

Momma had her hair and makeup done in studio by Nichole Lang Artistry. Nichole does a fabulous job working with all the mommas- I cannot recommend having your hair and makeup done enough!

I love a good silhouette- so simple but powerful. Isn’t a woman’s body so powerful? Pregnancy is really an amazing thing.

This dress is so much fun! Why not go a little extra for your maternity photoshoot? I love the texture and color of this one and is a client favorite from our studio wardrobe.

This box is new to our prop collection. It is so versatile and simple, the best of everything!

Cleveland Newborn Baby Photographer

March 2, 2023

Welcome this sweet baby girl to the Cleveland newborn baby photographer blog today! I had the honor of photographing her big sister’s newborn session eighteen months ago. It is always so amazing to see families grow over the years- it really makes my job that much more special!

Momma requested pinks and mauves for her baby girl’s newborn sessions. I love a classic look like this!

It is always the simplest sets that are my favorite. Tiny features and back rolls…oh my ovaries!

This was our very first session in the new Cleveland newborn baby photographer studio! We are loving all the extra room- our light walls are my new favorite thing. Our goal was to create a cozy space that was as functional as it is beautiful. After a few months of hard work, it really has paid off!

Momma had her hair and makeup done in studio while we were photographing little miss. Nichole Lang Artistry is my go to gal for Cleveland hair and makeup- not only is she amazing at what she does but a wonderful person. We love having her come to the studio and pampering you while you’re little one is photographed.

Big sister is eighteen months old. Listen up momma’s, I know that bringing an older sibling to your newborn session is stressful. She was very hesitant at first (after all, new place and new people) but she did eventually warm up. I know how important it is to get a nice photo of your babies together. I promise you, Miss Megan is magical and we will make it happen.

Family photos are such an important part of every newborn session. We highly recommend booking a photographer that will include them when you are looking for a Cleveland newborn baby photographer.

Thank you so much for stopping by the blog to check out this newborn session! Are you expecting soon and looking for a Cleveland newborn baby photographer? I would love to chat with you today. Please inquire in your second trimester to ensure availability.

Cleveland Newborn Girl Photography Session

February 14, 2023

Welcome this sweet baby girl and her family to the Cleveland newborn girl photography session blog today! Oh my heavens, this little love and her family were so much fun to work with! Meeting these families really makes our job that much more special.

Nothing is more classic for a Cleveland newborn girl photography session than sweet and simple pink set. This halo from Baby Bliss Props has been a favorite for years.

A little touch of boho makes this sweet really come together. She loved being all cozy and swaddled. I find that swaddling really helps little ones sleep comfortably through multiple sets. It’s always a go to for babies that are easily woken up.

Oh this little bear bonnet and basket are a requested favorite. It’s one of my all time favorite set ups too!

Oh the places you will go little one!

Family photos are always an important part of Cleveland newborn girl photography sessions. I do strongly encourage you to get in front of the camera. Most are hesitant but I promise you that someday these will be so very special. Nothing is better than seeing new parents with their baby in their arms.

Ten tiny toes you will never want to forget! We make sure we get those little feet every newborn session.

That’s a wrap on this blog post. Thank you so much for stopping by the blog to check out this Cleveland newborn girl photography session!

Pink and Green Cake Smash | Cleveland Baby Photographer

February 6, 2023

Welcome this sweet girl’s pink and green cake smash to the Cleveland baby photographer blog today! I’m a little behind on sharing sessions on the blog, this family came into the studio in December. Family holiday photos are a must in December!

We usually start cake smash sessions with family photos. This helps with stranger danger and the little ones warm up to us faster on mom or dad’s lap. And yes, mom, you need to be in the photos too. You are such an important part of their childhood. They will love having photos of you together.

Speaking of family photos, every momma wants a photo of their babies together. Siblings are welcome too! Isn’t big sister so sweet?? I did her cake smash session years ago, it was wonderful to see her again.

Now, onto the good stuff! Momma requested a pink and green cake smash to match her nursery decor. Oh I loved how this turned out. Simple, girly, and elegant.

Toes in the cake and a big old toothy grin. Baby girl, you stole my heart.

One of my favorites from her pink and green cake smash is her facial expressions. There is so much personality there! Don’t you just want to gobble her up??

Pro tip, when in doubt, give them a wooden spoon to play with. Oh she thought it was hot stuff!

Well, that’s a wrap on this pink and green cake smash session! Thank you so much for stopping by the blog to check out this cake smash session!

Is your little one celebrating a first birthday soon and you are looking for a Cleveland baby photographer? Please stop by the baby portfolio to see what if we might be a good fit. If so, I would love for you to contact me to discuss creating the cake smash session of your dreams.
