This newborn session holds a special place in my heart.
After photographing this mama’s maternity session just weeks ago, I was thrilled to welcome her back to the studio — this time with her baby boy in her arms. Born at 34 weeks, he spent a week in the NICU before coming home, strong and healthy. What a little fighter.
There’s something powerful about watching a family cradle such a tiny miracle. You can see it in the way his mother smiled down at him, wrapped gently in cream. You can feel it in the quiet pride in his father’s hands. Big siblings stood nearby, already full of love and awe.

Their outfits were soft and neutral, letting all the focus fall where it belonged — on the warmth between them. From sibling cuddles to parents sharing a glance above baby’s head, every moment felt sacred.

Then it was time for solo baby portraits. His tiny denim pants, the soft white fur, and the cozy textures of wool and wraps gave us the sweetest variety. Whether curled up or resting peacefully in a wooden box, he was perfect from every angle.
These sessions are more than just photos. They’re proof of strength, reminders of answered prayers, and glimpses into a season that passes too quickly.
To this sweet family — thank you for trusting me with such a meaningful chapter. He’s already so loved.
