Baby Girl Photo Session in Studio

Okay, people. This is a lot of cuteness, so brace yourselves! (Don’t say I didn’t warn you.)

Seriously, baby Annabelle was adorable and a total dream to photograph! I did her parents’ maternity session, so I’ve known for a while that she would be coming to the studio and have been looking forward to it! She was so good. Slept like an angel—which was great except that it made her newborn photo session zip by faster than I would have liked! Could have spent all day with this sweet baby girl. She even gave me some of those cute, sleepy baby smiles. (As a New Jersey newborn photographer, those are kind of what I live for!)

We did a pretty color scheme of pink, white, and gray. She loved being swaddled, so—since my goal is to keep baby happy while we capture your beautiful images—we did lots of wrapped shots. I love these anyway. A precious baby bundle is pretty much the best thing ever!

Mom and Dad also chose to get some family shots with their new arrival, which I definitely recommend! They are a super sweet family and it was such a treat to create those baby pictures with all of them together. I love it when my newborn clients first book a maternity session with me! It allows us to get to know each other better, and it’s so special to have pictures at each stage of your baby’s journey—including when you were still anticipating their arrival!

It was so fun to spend a couple of hours in my cozy Passaic County newborn photo studio with this precious baby girl and her parents. I’m really hoping she’ll be coming back to see me in a year for a cake smash! Love watching these little ones grow!

Baby Boy | New Jersey Newborn Photographer

Oh so cute! I loved being the New Jersey newborn photographer for this sweet baby boy. I did mom’s maternity pictures when she was pregnant with him, and I’ve been looking forward to meeting the little man ever since. He was everything I hoped and more! Such a sweetie!

Earthy Newborn Session

I love the dark colors mom and dad picked out for these baby pictures. Lots of black, deep browns and grays, and a little splash of color with some green and blue. It gave our photos a very deep, earthy feel that is great for a little boy.

Smile!

I also love when babies give me funny little expressions or smiles during their newborn photography session. This guy gave me a couple of adorable half-smiles in his sleep—aren’t those cute?—and I had my camera at the ready! We also got some closeup details shots of that precious face, because, um…look at it!

I had such a great time capturing memories of this precious baby boy and his parents! He did a wonderful job for me and was just so fun to snuggle and pose. I know these photos of his very first days will be a treasure to him and his parents always. Congratulations to this growing—and beautiful—family!

NJ Most Loved Newborn & Family Photographer

Can’t even tell you how much fun I had doing this newborn and family photo session a few months ago. I have known this family for years and I absolutely LOVE them! I’ve photographed big sister’s newborn session, cake smash, and everything in between. So you can imagine how excited I was when I learned that little sister was on the way!

Baby girl was the cutest thing ever. So much gorgeous dark hair, and she loved being swaddled. And big sis did a great job posing with her. She is always fun to hang out with, and is already a great big sister. Absolutely adores the new baby and is a great helper for mom and dad.

All of my sessions are completely customized, so I get lots of input from my clients to make sure the session I create is in line with their vision. For this family, we did most of our session with neutral colors (I love the high contrast black and white), but added some splashes of purple too.

All the Love

We mostly wanted to capture the relationships—which is what newborn and family photography is all about! Because of that, we didn’t do a lot of props or fancy backdrops. Just lots of beautiful portraits as we highlighted the love between this sweet baby girl and each member of her family. I can’t imagine anything more perfect.

Loved having this family in the studio again as they welcomed their second daughter! It was such a joy to see them for photographs every few months while big sister was growing from newborn to toddler, and I hope I’ll be able to record that same amazing journey for this new little one. Congratulations to one of my favorite families—love you!

New Jersey Newborn & Family Photos | Baby Sister

Every time I do a newborn photography session I’m reminded of just how lucky I am to have the best job in the world! I was so excited to have this family in my West Milford, NJ photography studio again towards the end of last year. I did a cake smash for their oldest daughter about two years ago, and have also done family photos for them in the past. Always love to see past clients in the studio again!

It was fun to see how much big sister has grown since I last saw her. She was adorable with her new baby sister. Mom and Dad told me how excited she was to have a sister. I think that’s so sweet, and I could definitely tell she was loving it by the way she interacted with new baby! So cute to watch them together.

We did mostly whites and neutrals for these newborn and family photos, but we added some splashes of color as well—mostly pretty pinks and blues. I love that they wanted some blues—a lot of times people only pick that for boys, but girls look so pretty in blue too. And there are lots of ways we can make it more girly-looking by adding flowers, lace, or headbands.

I love that we had the whole family in the studio for these newborn pictures! We got so many beautiful images and just had a wonderful time together. Congratulations to mom and dad on this latest addition to their lovely family!

Baby Sister | New Jersey Newborn and Family Photos

Had so much fun welcoming this family back to my photography studio in West Milford, New Jersey over this past summer! I photographed big brother when he was a brand new baby himself. Can’t believe that’s been three years ago already. He’s gotten so big and it was great to see how much he’s grown. He is also thrilled to be a big brother! It was adorable to watch his excitement while we did these newborn and family photos. He is so proud of his new baby sister.

We decided to go with a traditional pink and white color scheme for this sweet little girl, but we used very pale pinks. This is one simple way to have some nice color in your photos while still keeping things neutral enough that your artwork can be used to decorate any room in your home.

Baby sister was the star of the show, so most of our session focused on her, but we also used our time together to get some updated family photos. A newborn photo session can be a great opportunity to do that—especially if you have other little ones. Kiddos change so fast, so it’s wonderful to record how older siblings are growing at the same time you celebrate the arrival of a brand new life.

This is such a sweet little family and I loved the beautiful images we created together. Such an exciting time!
