Main Line Newborn Photographer: Trey’s here!

Back in August, you met Trey’s family right here on the blog. He arrived a few days early, and I was so happy to meet him this morning. He’s such a little peanut, and just get a load of all that dark hair! He was really great for us, and he slept quite a bit. But guess when he absolutely would not sleep? Yep . . . when we had him under the Sweet Dreams sign!

Isn’t that sign cool?! He received it as a gift, and it matches his nursery. Part of it is painted, but the stripes are actually made of ribbon.

I have lots of favorites from this session, and these next two are definitely in contention for first place. This first one is rather nontraditional, but it makes me smile. The symmetry of the dogs’ “arms” and the baby’s arms is too funny!

Isn’t that a great rug underneath them? I loved its texture.

And this shot is so sweet that it almost make my teeth hurt to look at it. His grandma made his hat, and he’s all ready for fall.

J and P, it was great to see you again today. I really enjoyed my time with you and with little T. Thanks so much—enjoy your sneak peek!

Chester County Newborn Photographer: A new crew member?

I never get tired of shooting newborns. They require a lot of patience and (believe it or not!) hard work, but the results are so worth it. In just a few weeks, little L will have lost most of his newborn-ness, but Mom and Dad will always have these photos to remember just how tiny he was.

We couldn’t resist dressing him up in a few hats . . .

. . . and we definitely had to incorporate the beautiful living room into some photos.

Toward the end of the session, L woke up. If I had to put a caption on this one it would be, “Oh Lord, is that woman with the camera still here?!?”

Thank you, J and C, for inviting me to your home this morning–it was so great to finally meet you!

Chester County Maternity Photographer: Sofia’s Mom & Dad

I met the nicest people this morning! C & C are waiting for Sofia’s arrival in October, and they wanted me to document this stage in their family’s life. We had a good time playing with different props.

We also spent some time keeping Agassi the schnoodle at bay. He wanted to be in the shots too! So we obliged. He even got some solo time at the end.

Thank you, C & C, for sharing this exciting time with me. I can’t wait to meet your new little girl!

Main Line Baby Photographer: Mr. Mischief

First off, I have to say that the title of this post describes the photo above—not the little boy who’s in the photo. Doesn’t he look like he could get into a bit of trouble? Or maybe he just knows something we don’t. At any rate, he sure is a sweetheart. I didn’t see any mischief out of him at all today. Nope, he was nothing but smiles. And drool. 🙂 (I think he’s working on a few new teeth!)

Choosing photos for this sneak peek was really tough. Mr. L was all smiles for me, and just look at those big brown eyes and long lashes!

We spent a little time outside too, where he had a great time sitting in a basket while he listened to his mom and me sing. I doubt he was thrilled with my singing, but he didn’t seem to mind too much.

He’s working hard on his crawling skills, and I was so happy to get this image. I think it’s my favorite one of all. If you look closely, you can even see the drool. 🙂

D and M, thank you so much for inviting me to document this stage of L’s life. I had a really great time this morning, and I hope you did too. Enjoy your sneak peek!
