Tiny Newborn Girl in Northern Rhode Island

I recently shared this couple’s maternity session here on the blog – now meet their beautiful newborn girl, Amira. At just 17 days old, she was pretty much perfect. Big beautiful dark eyes and these tiny delicate features. I love doing newborn sessions on or after day 15. At that point everyone has kind of settled into a routine and parents are usually a little more rested. Plus if moms are nursing or pumping, milk supply has usually been established. And since fed babies are happy babies that is super important! And Amira was super happy and cute.

Since I do photos in clients homes one of my favorite spots to use is the parents’ bedroom. And Amira’s parents room was no exception. They had a beautiful simple bed and walls that let the main characters (them!) shine. I have many prospective clients say “well I don’t have a magazine style bedroom or anything” and I always tell them if you have a bed, a wall, a window that’s really all I need. And I’ll let you in on a little secret – the mess all goes behind me and out of the frame. No matter whose house it is or what kind of people they are there is always chaos and mess! You’ve just had a newborn! So I just move it out of the way, set up where I am going to shoot, and continue on with the session.

We got the most beautiful photos of Amira and her parents during her session! She gave us some good quiet alert time and also sleepy time which we all love. 🙂

Love is Love | In Home Newborn Photographer Massachusetts

Give me all of the snuggly, loving parents. Give me the single parent, the mom and dad, the two moms, the two dads. Big families with tons of siblings, first babies to come home. Love is love is love a million times over and that is what I live to capture for all of my clients. This newborn session was absolutely the perfect example of that. When mom reached out and said she and her wife wanted a newborn session in their home I was so excited. Especially, and I will be honest here, because they said I could share the images afterward. So often my LGBTQ families won’t let me share images – which I totally understand, but makes me sad. These two moms were ADORABLE and so so freaking funny. I remember laughing so much during their session.

Baby Madison was chubby and smily and pretty much perfect. She was a little different in that she was awake for most of the session which was awesome. It’s always an added bonus to get eyes open and sleeping images during a newborn session. It’s not something I normally TRY to get (that old adage about never waking a sleeping baby ) unless baby needs to eat but it’s a nice surprise when it happens. We were able to get such cute interaction shots – check out the nose boop below! We also got some adorable images with the newly promoted big fur sibling as well which was so awesome. I welcome all fur siblings as long as they are well trained – big animals plus tiny babies don’t always work. But this one was ADORABLE.

Towards the end Madison did drift off a little bit so it really ended up being the best of both worlds. <3

Fresh 48 Newborn Session | North Attleboro Photography

If you have been to Sturdy Memorial Hospital to have a baby, chances are that you have seen my photos. I have a lovely display of images all over the walls of the labor and delivery floor. It is one of my favorite things that I have done in all of my years of being a newborn photographer in Rhode Island and Massachusetts!! When dad, who worked at Sturdy, saw my images, he knew they wanted me to come for photos in their home after the baby was born since visitors were not yet allowed in the hospitals. It wasn’t quite a newborn session, but it wasn’t quite a Fresh 48 either. It was a gorgeous mix of the two.

Sweet Naya was just a few days old when I met her at their house. We did all of the images right there in their nursery. It was essentially recreating the hospital room in a FAR more comfortable environment. If I could, I would do so many of these sessions and call them “welcome home” sessions. I could get all of the small brand new details – fingers, toes, wrinkles. All of my favorite parts of the Fresh 48, but with the touches of the traditional newborn. It really was the best of both worlds.

Newborn Baby Boy | East Side of Providence Newborn Photos

Being a newborn photographer, I am often meeting new couples and families. By and large unless it is a second or third baby the families hiring me are coming to me for the first time. For that reason I offer a pre-session consultation with families. Obviously, having someone you’ve never met come into your home after one of the biggest events of your life with your brand new baby can be a bit nerve wracking!

When I first met mom for their session consult it was as if we had been friends for years by the end. She gave me a quick tour of the house so I could plan out where we would do images. After that, we sat and chatted for quite a while about being pregnant, giving birth, some tips for after, and more. I always joke that my degree in psychology comes in far handier than a degree in photography ever would have. Coupled with having done the pregnancy and birth thing three times over and, well, you’re getting so much more than just a newborn photographer.

But with that consult, the goal is to make parents more comfortable. That way when I come back in a few weeks, it’s not a complete stranger walking through the door. And this time was absolutely that. Walking back in and meeting dad and seeing mom again was an instant and easy connection. I don’t think I have laughed as much as I did during their session together. I am fortunate to work with so many awesome couples. Maybe it is my website or how I communicate with them before they book – I don’t know what it is but it works. They were so relaxed and goofy and just happy. And baby Luca was perfection.

We did images in both their nursery and the master bedroom and got so many snuggly awesome baby moments. Doing a storyteller session allowed for everyone to relax and let the session flow naturally. This choice of session combined with that consult – just *chef’s kiss.*

Sibling Newborn Session | Rhode Island Newborn Photographer

I have said before I love newborn sessions with siblings. First babies are always fun but it’s no secret I adore the siblings. And sometimes I extra adore the siblings when they are as awesome as this one was. Being an older sibling, M was MORE than ready to show off her new little baby brother She was so incredibly adoring and loving and sweet with him. Even at their original consultation before the session, she was already excited about the baby so when I got there and she was getting to hold and snuggle him? The BEST. Mom and dad were also over the moon with their new baby boy (and I dont think I’ve ever seen a mini clone of a parent quite like this little guy hahaa!)

We spent a good time of their storyteller session capturing fun and beautiful family photos – even incuding one with one of the cats!! I adore seeing how babies fit into family dynamics both literally and figuratively. Finding the room to hold them in the family group photos while everyone else gathers around is so much fun. I love the little squeezes and looks that can happen. The sweet looks, the laughs, the pure love and joy in that family grouping. The life of the family has changed so much in such a short period of time, and so so very completely that the emotions that come out are just the best. After family photos it was time for solo baby cuteness. I mean – the sleeping stuff was good but check out that face and those expressions he was giving me during some awake time as well!
