Baby A~Central Iowa newborn photography

Posted on April 21, 2012

I love having little newborns in the studio! So sweet, so innocent, so adorable! Little baby A was indeed all of these things. She has two older brothers and I think it is safe to say the entire family was excited to have a little princess. I have a sneaking suspicion that she is going to be a tad bit spoiled, but aren’t all girls supposed to be that way?

Keep in mind, the best time to schedule a newborn session is before you have the baby! I really like to keep my newborns penciled into my calendar so that we can get the session completed in the first week. That is the best time to get the curly, sleeping, dreamy images.

Here is another fantastic newborn session! This little guy was so sweet to work with, but we were starting to think that he would never fall asleep for us! But once he did, we were able to get a lot of great images. This is why it is so important to get these tiny ones in before they are 2 weeks old. In fact that sooner the better. Once they are alert enough to know what is going on it is much more difficult to get them to go all nice and sleepy for the session. Of course, sometimes the newborn session is a bit longer than a typical session…everything revolves around the baby and what they are comfortable with. Great chance for me to get a few baby snuggles in too, that might be my favorite part!

Oh how I love my newborn sessions! There is just something amazing about having a tiny baby in the studio. They change oh so fast, and I love that I am able to capture these sweet precious moments. Little C was a fantastic baby to work with, and she has some pretty amazing parents too. If you have been considering newborn portraits the best time to do them is before the baby is 2 weeks old. My schedule has been filling quickly, so I really recommend that you contact me before your due date to tentatively arrange for a time.
