Charlie | 4 Days New | Jacksonville Newborn Photographer

New parents Becky and Dave brought their sweet new babe to see me at the studio. I was so excited to work with Becky and Dave again after getting to know them during their maternity session in July. You can see some of my favorites from their maternity gallery here. Baby Charlie was so sweet and tiny, with just the right amount of squish. And oh so new at just 4 days old. He was also quite happy to be out in the big world, as he hardly stopped squirming! Charlie’s nursery is mint, navy and white so we incorporated those colors in his session. His mama even brought in a couple of blankets from his nursery to use!

I love capturing all of the little details of newborns. They change so fast – in the blink of an eye those new, tiny details are forever gone. I love that through my images, those little details will be forever remembered.

It is always an honor when one of our servicemen brings their new baby in, and I am able to capture an image that I know will be treasured by the entire family for generations to come. It is also a stark reminder of the sacrifices made by our servicemen, and their families, to protect this nation. Thank you, Dave, for you service, and thank you Becky and Charlie for sharing your soldier with us.

Declan | 9 Days New

Declan was a champ for his session. His mom, Megan, is an Athletic Trainer for a local high school here in town, and works at Preferred Physical Therapy in Fleming Island. The crew there chipped in to purchase a gifted newborn session for her first baby’s newborn photos and I was so thrilled to get to do this for her. Between myself and my daughter, we frequented Preferred Physical Therapy for several years and highly recommend them!

Back to Declan . . . Declan was a chunky little baby that came to visit my Fleming Island studio back in August. It took a bit for him to fall asleep, but once he did, he was O-U-T! He was just so curious to all the new scents and sounds, like any newborn in a new environment. He looked lovely on this simple cream backdrop, and I loved his back rolls.

Ha! Doesn’t that left pose just scream “strike a pose?” Declan LOVED to sleep. He was an absolute dream-baby. He woke up to eat and went right back to sleep. We were able to get through so many setups and poses with him. I had a really difficult time narrowing down his gallery for his mama to view.

Declan’s grandma had his baseball outfit made, and his room is all neutral zoo animal themes, so his mom brought in his stuffed giraffe that looked completely adorable “sleeping” next to him.

Newborns generally sleep in cycles. Awake, eat, sleep, eat, awake, eat, sleep, eat . . . every 2-3 hours. It’s really important to spend the time BEFORE your session keeping baby awake and playing so they’re ready to sleep after their next feeding. I send out a PDF Prep Guide to all of my newborn clients to assist them in things like what foods to avoid if they’re breastfeeding, items to bring for baby’s photos, and ideas on what to wear for parent/sibling poses. I’ve been told that this really helps ease any anxiety, and I aim to make this a relaxing and stress-free process for all of my clients.

Jackson | Newborn Lifestyle Session | Jacksonville, FL

I love when my clients request a lifestyle session of any type, especially a lifestyle newborn session. There is something so comforting about being in your own space, and just being, well, you. This sweet new family of 3 invited me to their home to welcome Jackson to the world. Watching, and capturing, new parents take in all the little details of their new baby and just being in complete awe is such a privilege. This is their new every day as they settle into their new role as a mommy and daddy!

I also love capturing all the details that were perfectly laid out as they waited for their new baby to arrive. 9 months of planning, decorating, and waiting. Having all of those details in your newborn images is such a great way to preserve the perfection before diapers, midnight feedings, and piles of laundry invade! 😉

Jackson was very alert during his session – something that is easier to deal with in a lifestyle session rather than a portrait session. I love Jackson’s bright eyes, and attentive expressions.

Jackson’s mama had her childhood teddy bear in his nursery, and we were able to incorporate the special teddy into the session!

And because daddy is a pilot, an aviator hat was fitting!

Jackson’s lifestyle newborn session was perfect. Congratulations to the new family of 3, and thank you for inviting me to your home to capture some memories!
