During this lifestyle nursery session, we had beautiful morning light pouring through the windows and one very alert and curious baby ready for his photo shoot! The mountain themed nursery designed by mom and dad was so much fun to photograph.

My goal is always to capture the simple but powerful moments that you don’t want to forget. I look for big yawns, the way baby cuddles up against their parents, funny moments with older siblings, and those sweet, curious eyes looking out at the world. This year was full of beautiful moms-to-be, excited big brothers and sisters, and the cutest, most snuggly little newborns.

Maternity & Newborn packages are THE best- it is so much fun to join in on the excitement and anticipation of all the joy to come.  I was thrilled to have my first shoot sine moving to Rhode Island be with Courtney and Mark, documenting this special time before their baby girl arrives…

We captured the first time his big sister was holding him, and the moment when I asked her to give him a little kiss and she licked him instead. And then we froze the moment when she was no longer so sure about the new baby, so she went to go blow bubbles with the dog instead.

It’s such a unique time to capture, especially with a little one who is also waiting for the baby to arrive. I love the images we created; they show so much love and excitement between their little family. And how beautiful are Lindsey’s solo portraits? They made me love snowy sessions!  Enjoy this look into their maternity family session. It’s the sweetest! 

Baby Dylan’s lifestyle newborn session was full of energy. She had no interest in sleeping- probably because she doesn’t want to miss a minute of her big brother and big sister. She was ready to be awake and checking out the world around her. Her session features adorable outfits picked out by her big sister, her big brother who LOVES the camera, and sweet cuddles with her mom and dad.  

Here’s a glimpse of some of my favorite  moments we spent together this year…

Baby Alex made his grand entrance into the world 3 weeks ago and could not be any cuter. Aside from being so well behaved, he’s also got the greatest head of hair and bright little eyes. He has been surrounded with love and has a very excited big sister, so its safe to say he’s off to a good start here in the world. 

I can never get enough of newborn shoots. There is something about documenting the very beginning of someone’s story and the world surrounding them during their first days here.
