Yes, you read that right – Newborn Twin Portraits! Twins!! So exciting!! It won’t come as a surprise that shooting newborn twin portraits take a bit more patience, and a bit more time than shooting just one baby. With one baby, I usually budget at most 2 hours for a session. With twins, it might […]

One of my top questions, “When is the best time to do newborn photos?” First off, let me just say: Congratulations! Your baby has arrived! And now I know you’d like to do some portraits of you new little nugget. The best time for newborn photos is in the first 2 weeks. I know this […]

I get this question often: What colors work well with newborn photographs? For newborn photographs I believe generally, lighter solid colors are great. I love moms in neutral colors, white is always great, but anything in the light pastel range. Dads look great in button down shirts. Be mindful of shirts with logos, those can […]

Hollis is a really special baby to me. I’ve known her parents for a really long time and her mom is a good friend. I shot Maryam’s maternity pictures, which I’ll be posting a bit later, when she was about a week away from delivery. During our session she was asking what I thought about […]

Really I should call this post “My love affair with film,” because that’s really what it is. I learned on film. I started shooting when I was 11, in the seventh grade (yes I was 11, and turned 12 in the 7th grade.) I spent hours in the dark room, it was my happy place. […]

Um. Yes. The first two weeks of life are unlike any other time. Its quite literally the only time in their entire life they will be that small. Those little newborn details don’t stick around for very long. They’ll never fold up like that again, they’ll never be so tiny. It’s a really special time, […]

Your baby is here!! Hooray!!!! And… you’ve been home for a week, you can’t remember the last time you brushed your hair, let alone got to sleep… How on Earth are you going to be ready for newborn photos!! Well, the answer is, you might not feel like a Goddess at your baby’s newborn session, […]

Ok, so shooting twins is like all the yummy goodness of shooting one newborn, only there are two of them. 😀  So moms, dads, here’s what to expect when you book a session for your twins. This will very likely take longer than if there was just one. I shoot each twin individually first. They’ll […]

The baby details. Do I need to say more? The mini mohawk, the mini fingers and toes…. What else is there to say? In every session I shoot details. These are the small things that change so quickly. One day their foot fits in your hand, and the next they’re playing basketball with a size […]
