Spirited! | Newborn Photographer | Bergen County, New Jersey

3 comments

This little girl was, in her dad’s words… “spirited.”  She woke up in between almost every pose and gave a good little cry.   Luckily, her dad was so fantastic at soothing her back into a slumber, that we named him “the baby whisperer.”   Mom and Dad actually came all the way down from West Point for their session …with a cadet uniform in tow! (It made for a great prop!)  It was really fun collaborating with this sweet little girl’s mom on the look of the session and the various props.  They also brought pink roses and hydrangeas for the session…I love it!  And, as you can see in the last shot, big brother was also on hand for a handsome portrait with his baby sister.  A beautiful family indeed and a fun session…

Comfy and Cozy… | NJ Newborn Photographer | Bergen County New Jersey

5 comments

In my continued effort to catch up on my blogging, I’d like to share this little beauty from the summer.  This little guy was only a week old and he stayed very comfy and cozy for almost the whole shoot.  Mom also had the cutest selection of props and accessories…like this owl hat.  Say it with me….”aaaaaaw!”

First Born Beauty… | NJ Newborn Photographer | Upper Saddle River, New Jersey

In addition to catching up on beach sessions, I have lots of newborn sessions from the summer that I’ve neglected to blog.   So stay tuned –  in the next few weeks, I am going to play catch up.

I’ll start with this beautiful little boy… he surprised us by arriving a bit earlier than expected, but was a good little sleeper, which always makes things go more smoothly.   Mom was a great help, especially with the hammock shot, which we were both determined to get.   And I just love the sepia-toned image of him in the little flyer hat…what a little sweetie!

Daydream…. | NJ Newborn Photographer | Bergen County New Jersey

3 comments

This little girl decided to arrive early.  So small and delicate, she was a dream to photograph.  She slept for the whole session and barely fussed one bit.  Just when we started the bowl shot, she started waking up – hungry!  So I had to work fast…but she stayed still just long enough…

She slept like…well, a baby! | NY Newborn Photographer | Orange County New York

3 comments

This precious little baby girl was one of my first newborn shoots of the summer and let me tell ya, it was a hot one!!  As babies tend to sleep much better in the heat, I asked mom to turn off the AC so we could get her groggy for the session.  Well, she fell asleep and stayed in a deep slumber the whole time as I sweat bullets, but the results were well worth it.  She is beautiful, just like her mommy, and I love the image of the two of them;  we decided to get that pose at the last minute and sometimes those end up being some of the best ones!  Hope you enjoy the rest of your summer girls…

Brand New… | NJ Newborn Photographer | Morris County New Jersey

7 comments

Six days young, this brand new little one was tiny and precious.  I kept marveling at his perfect features…they truly were.  He seemed a good sleeper too, so I thought I’d use the latest in my never-ending search for cool newborn props…a beautifully crafted wooden chair.  I love it – and I think he looks downright comfy in it too.  Look at his little smile.  He stayed peaceful and sleepy for the whole session…looking angelic in the different wraps and cocoons, but I just love how he looks in his daddy’s arms in the black and whites below.  And I daresay the last shot would bring a smile to almost anyone’s face.  Take a look and see…
