Newborn Baby Girl Session

July 18, 2022

Welcome this sweet newborn baby girl session to the Cleveland newborn photographer blog today! My goodness gracious, she is a real life baby doll! Mom and Dad were over the moon to have her in the studio as were we. She was an absolute rock star for her session. It makes my heart so happy to meet such sweet families.

Baby girl really can rock pink and a halo with all that gorgeous hair! How adorable is this halo from Lavender and Moss Props? So elegant!

I know I say this all the time, but simple newborn baby photos are my favorite! All those tiny details that change so quickly. You will never regret having captured this time. It lasts all but a moment.

Baby girl’s nursery is star and moon themed, so of course it was important to incorporate this theme into her newborn session.

From the moment that momma contacted me, she wanted to do a Beauty and the Beast themed photo for her newborn baby girl session. This was also their wedding theme. How adorable is this set for her? I love that it has such meaning for their family.

Family photos are such an important part of every newborn baby girl session. There’s nothing better than seeing a new parent with their baby in their arms. Don’t wait to get into the photos. I promise we will make you feel your best.

Okay, y’all, I think I saved the best part of this newborn baby girl session for last. The detail shots have my heart! Her little fuzzy head, ten tiny toes, and little hand have me swooning!

Thank you SO much for stopping by the Cleveland newborn photographer blog to check out this newborn session! Are you expecting a little one soon? Please stop by the newborn portfolio to see if we might be a fit. If so, I would love to hear from you today! We typically book two to three months in advance.

Baby Girl Family Photos | Cleveland Newborn Photographer

July 3, 2022

Welcome these sweet baby girl family photos to the Cleveland newborn photographer blog today! Oh this family is SO special to me! I’ve had the honor of photographing them all as babies. Watching them grow into such sweet and smart kiddos has been incredible. Seriously, they were so polite and fun to talk to, we could have kept them all day!

Sibling photos are every momma’s priority- I know it was mine we when had our second daughter. Nothing melts a momma’s heart like seeing all of her babies together. This is why we include family photos with every newborn session- it is a special time for the whole family!

I hope someday she looks at baby girl family photos and knows how much she is loved. Her brothers and sister were over the moon with her!

This moon from Woodsy Wonders Props is by far my most requested prop for newborn sessions. It is such classic theme for babies!

Baby girls in blue will always be my favorite! I was so happy when momma choose blue for her newborn session- it is a color that we do not often get to use with girls. Y’all blue is for boys and girls!

There is just something so divine about simple baby photos. All those yummy little details that change so quickly. Let’s be honest- the newborn stage is hard when you are in it. To be able to have photos that capture the beauty of this sleepy phase to savor long after they have grown is priceless.

Babies in buckets will always be my favorite too! Little Miss and her cheeks have me swooning! How perfect is this halo from Lavender and Moss Props?

Thank you so much for stopping by the blog to check out these baby girl family photos! Are you expecting a little one soon and looking for a Cleveland newborn photographer? If so, please check out the portfolio to see if we might be a match.

They are going to be such great parents- I had so much fun working with them to photograph this special time in their lives. There is something downright magical about that time in waiting for your first little one!

Momma came into the studio before we headed to our sunset location to have her hair and makeup done by Nichole Lang Artistry. Nichole does a phenomenal job with hair and makeup- it’s magical! She’s so sweet and makes the whole experience relaxing. I highly recommend adding hair and makeup to your summer maternity session!

It won’t be too much longer until they meet their baby boy! I just love this up close photo- this little guy is so loved already!

Isn’t momma stunning? Maternity sessions are not only capture the beauty of new life coming but the celebration of your strong, capable body. It really is amazing!

Okay, this gown is defiantly one of my favorites from our client closet. It looks absolutely stunning on her!

We caught the sunset just perfectly! Aren’t they glowing?? If you are planning on a summer maternity session, about an hour before the sunset it the best time to schedule.

And of course, this pose is almost always a request. That’s a wrap on this summer maternity session!

Thank you so much for stopping by the blog! Are you expecting and considering a maternity session? If so, please check out the maternity portfolio to see if we might be a good fit.

I recommend scheduling your maternity session for around 30-35 weeks. This way you are showing but not uncomfortable. Going outside this recommended window is okay too! It depends on your schedule.

Family photos are always such an important part of first birthday photography sessions. It helps little ones warm up to me and the studio. Most babies at this age have a bit of stranger danger and they always feel safest with mom and dad. Also, it makes for some super sweet photos. Moms and Dads, get in the photos. Someday you will thank me.

How sweet is her smile? My goodness, those two bottom teeth get me every time! Babies change SO much, I love all her expressions.

Momma requested a fairy first birthday cake smash. How fun is this theme? I had a lot of fun designing her set. The fairies are hand made by yours truly. Set building is a labor of love, the time and planning is so gratifying when it comes together!

Little Miss is all business with her cake. How adorable is she? I love to capture a variety of angles for first birthday sessions, it really helps tell the story and show off all the tiny details of the day.

Also, can we all just take a minute to admire how beautiful this smash cake is from Honey Bee Bakery? They do a wonderful job and supply the smash cakes for your photography session.

Newborn Portraits | Hudson Ohio Photographer

May 27, 2022

Welcome this sweet baby girl’s newborn portraits to the Hudson Ohio photographer blog today! Golly, this little lady really gave us a case of baby fever! Little Miss was close to nine and a half pounds at birth. It was so hard not to gobble her up!

Babies smile usually about once a session but it’s honestly a matter of luck if we catch it or not. Typically they smile as soon as my camera is out of sight. This sweet girl smiled at the perfect time! How amazing is that? Pretty sure every momma wants a newborn portrait with their baby smiling.

Momma chose light purple and pinks for her baby girl’s session. All that hair is just begging to have a headband too! Isn’t she simply divine??

Baby girl’s nursery is Winnie The Pooh themed. I thought this little bear bonnet from Threads and Evergreen and honey bucket would be the perfect touch for her room.

Momma is a big fan of baskets for her newborn portraits. I’d say baby girl understood the assignment. Not a peep from this darling girl!

Green is defiantly her color! She loved being so cozy as most babies do. The swaddle almost always keeps them happy!

Is there anything better than baby toes? All those tiny details are so special to have. My girls are so big now, it is amazing to think that they were once this small.

Family photos are such an important part of newborn portraits. I hope someday when she looks at these photos she knows how loved she is.
