Beautiful Blakely, what a dream baby! I was lucky enough to do their oldest son Jaxon’s newborn photos, and then to have them back to capture Blakely’s first couple of weeks of life.

It’s such a pleasure to work with families that want to work with me time and again, and it’s such a joy to watch families grow and change.

It can be a gamble when clients come with older siblings in regards to how they’ll behave (I mean let’s be real, becoming an older sibling is hard!). Children often jump into the moment, though, so try not to be too fearful of your older ones acting out at a session. Often the older ones will love the camera and attention at a session, and in the case they don’t, we can usually snap a photo even if there’s not a lot of cooperation. In the case of Blakely and Jaxon, though, we lucked out and Jaxon did so well. Jaxon loves his little sister Blakely and has really stepped into that big brother role like a champ.

Newborn sessions are ideally done before the baby is two weeks old. That being said, if you miss this window of time fear not, there are so many fun things we can do if your baby is a bit more ‘awake’ and slightly older. I also offer newborn sessions from the comfort of your own home, I have a blog coming up about this soon.

Enjoy these sweet moments caught on film!
