Sweet and Modern Newborn Photography Session

5/3/2022

I don't think this little girl could be any sweeter. There is nothing I love more than a chunky newborn baby. okay, maybe one thing, and that's a chunky newborn baby that sleeps through her session. For this session I really wanted to keep things clean and modern. Nothing too fussy, just a focus on a beautiful new baby and her proud family. With a baby girl I love to include pops of color, in this case pink, without going crazy with it. a little bit of pale pink goes a long way. I am so lucky to be invited into a family's home during this special time right after the birth of their baby. I only take on up to 10 newborn sessions a week in order to make sure I can give each session the attention it deserves so if you're thinking of booking email me now before I fill up.

Its always so special to get to go back and see one of my newborn clients when they become a big brother or big sister. Which is exactly what I got to do with this adorable session in the Westchase neighborhood of Tampa, FL. Little Charlotte was just the sweetest little girl and her big brother could not have been more proud to show off his baby sister. One of the best parts of having more than one child is seeing the relationship between your kiddos. They may fight but the sweet moments make up for it.

These sweet moments only last so long and those of us with multiple children know how difficult it is to find the time to schedule things like newborn sessions when you are also juggling your child or toddler's schedule. But it is so worth it. Plus, I do all my newborn sessions in your home! no packing everyone up and driving to a studio, I bring the studio to you! So head over to My Contact page and send me an email. It's never too late to get yourself on the schedule because I only book 10 babies a month maximum.

Mallory's Artistic Maternity Photo Session in Tampa - Sneak Peek

9/5/2021

Mallory and Dylan are having a baby! I know, that's pretty obvious here but I'm so happy for them. I've known Dylan and Mallory for something like 14 years and Dylan was actually the best man in my wedding. I've seen them through their entire relationship including this next step. I'm so honored to get to capture this very special time and I can't wait to meet their little girl next month. Besides, I couldn't ask for a more beautiful model to photograph. Seriously, Mallory told me right at the top of the shoot that she hates having her photo taken. You absolutely cannot tell in the results. She looks like she's done this whole photo shoot thing a million times.

Alice and Rose's Newborn Twin Photo Shoot in Tampa, FL - Sneak Peek

10/18/2020

Newborn twins snuggle together in the O of the word love made out of pale pink flowers

These little girls gave me a run for my money but don't twins always do that. Those of you who knew me when my twins were little probably remember me going around like a half asleep zombie. However, it does eventually get better and easier and that was definitely my experience photographing little Alice and Rose. At first Alice was sleeping like a dream but Rose was very angry with the whole idea. Then they switched. But eventually everything fell into place and these little girls finally decided to show me how cute their little faces look when they're not pouting. Every time I shoot twins it brings me back to when mine were little, there's nothing like two little babies snuggled up together.

Everly's Newborn Photo Session in Tampa, Florida - Sneak Peek

9/14/2020

Sleeping baby girl lies on her belly with her hands under her head

I met this little cutie this past weekend along with her mommy, daddy, and grandma and I haven't stopped looking at her photos since. Isn't she just adorable. Even though Everly did not much enjoy getting her photo taken you can't really tell. For most of the shoot Everly looked at me and at her mom but refused to go to sleep. Since she was pretty happy, I was happy to keep shooting. Then she fell asleep for a short while (during which I took many adorable photos). Then, She woke up MAD! After that she was really only happy if mom or dad was holding her which was great because it was time to take family photos anyway. Of course, as I walked out the door she was dozing again, isn't that just how babies are. Anyway, this little girl is super cute so enjoy a sneak peek of little Everly,

Anaisha's Newborn Photo session in Brandon, FL - Sneak Peek

2/18/2019

This little baby was not happy about having her photo taken. Even though Anaisha was born early at only 4lbs 9oz she already has a big personality. For those who know me, this may ring a bell with you about my own 4lb 8oz baby who also has a very big personality and thinks she runs the show. Luckily, we had grandma with the magic hands near by to calm this little lady down. Even with her not so cooperative mood, Anaisha was a total joy to work with, (I mean, look at those cheeks!) Really, her whole family was super sweet and I'm so glad I got to meet them. Welcome to the world little Anaisha, keep that spunky spirit.

Brenna's Newborn Photo Session in Tampa, FL - Sneak Peek

1/28/2019

Sweet little Brenna is here and her big sister couldn't be happier. I photographed the two of them in their home in Tampa, FL and they were so sweet. Brenna was feeling a little nervous about all this weird stuff going on around her so she decided to stay awake and keep an eye on things. Unfortunately, that meant that by the time I left she was pretty exhausted. When it was big sister Isla's turn to join her sister she was such a big girl. She did her best to follow all of my directions and give her best smile. I think Brenna is a lucky girl to have a big sister like Isla to look out for her.

Emmy's Newborn Photo Shoot in Wesley Chapel, FL - Sneak Peek

1/8/2019

Newborn baby girl with a big pink bow lies on a small wooden bed with a gray brick wall behind her

Sweet little Emmy is here! This little sweetie was so sleepy for her photos, she slept through almost the whole thing. But, just to make sure that I knew she didn't like it, she kept a grumpy face even when she was sleeping. Eventually though she relaxed and I got to see her sweet face without a scowl on. I've known Emmy's mom and dad for quite a few years and have photographed them a few times so it was so fun to be able to take photos of their very cute and very loved new baby girl.

Jack's newborn Photography session in Tampa, Fl - Sneak Peek

Baby Jack is here. What an adorable, expressive little boy! When I first started photographing him he was wide awake, looking around at all this weird equipment I brought into his home and this machine that kept clicking in his face. He wasn't mad, just interested and giving me all kinds of cute and funny faces. But, he is brand new and after awhile he couldn't help but fall asleep. Even with only being there for a little while I can tell that little Jack brings a lot of joy into his home and I know he'll only continue to do so as he grows.

Charlie's Newborn Photography Session in Tampa, FL - Sneak Peek

Welcome to the world sweet Charlie! I first met this little boy's family when his big sister was born and since then I've met with them to document their growing family several times. And now that family has grown by one seriously cute little guy. Charlie wasn't particularly happy to have his photo taken but his big sister was over the moon about posing and also about being a big sister. While I swaddled Charlie, Nora leaned over him and kissed him on the head, then she laughed and said, "Charlie, I can't believe you." I'm looking forward to seeing little Charlie grow and change, congratulations to his family.
