It’s been a hot minute, so to pick up my backlog in blogging, let’s begin with the newborn session from the last post’s gooooorgeous maternity session.  This beautiful baby girl was so very ready for her closeup at just over two weeks old – and so were mom and dad.  They chose my classic newborn session so their session was much more posed in nature, but we still were able to get a wonderful variety of images.  Especially with the weather being gorgeous outside, we could even add in images outside under the trees in their front yard.  It’s one of my favorite bonuses when the weather is nice during newborn sessions – there is something fun and unexpected about taking everyone outside!  I will happily do images in yards, on benches, under trees, etc.  As long as there is pretty open shade I am good to go.

These two continued the fun and love and adoration for each other from their maternity session straight into their newborn.  They loved that little girl and each other so so very much.  You know when you can just tell how happy people are – when they radiate it?  That is what they did.  Whether I asked them to look at me (more common in the classic session) or give a kiss to someone, they were right there doing it eagerly.  I always joke it’s never hard to get new parents to give babies kisses and hugs and they were no exception.   🙂

I also want to take just a second to chat about their outfits – mom was absolutely stunning in a traditional cream colored tunic that allowed baby girl to shine.  And dad was perfect in a linen shirt.  Both outfits were great and definitely fell under the “what to wear for your newborn session” prompts.  Flattering, beautiful colors, and a cohesive look that let baby girl be the star of the show and didn’t distract.
