Thank you to everyone who inquired about the newborn session–I am always humbled when I am asked to take a baby’s first professional pictures. But really, I am even more humbled that Patrick’s mom agreed to meet with me after I told her what I had in mind with my new prop. “I’d like to hang your baby from a hook,” is what my email essentially read, and I can only imagine that there may have been a moment’s (or several minutes, or hours, LOL) hesitation on her end.
Just for the record, I promise you that all of my pictures with babies (and children) are taken very safely. After all, Photoshop is precisely for erasing safety bags and hands, as well as cleaning up scratches from kids’ knees and wrinkles from Grandma!
And just two others of Patrick in the new studio. Isn’t he the cutest little baby? Congrats again, Michelle, and many thanks again for bringing Patrick in today.
Jenny bought a new prop! (I’m so excited, I’m referring to myself in the third person!) I’m looking for a fresh newborn to try it out on since my next newborn session isn’t for a few more weeks. Parents will receive a complimentary mini session and a complimentary 8×10 with a signed model release. The session will take place, preferably, during the week at my GoggleWorks studio. The baby must be under 2 weeks old, and smaller babies will be considered first. Please send me a photo of your baby (or your due date, if you’re expecting) to be considered.
I look forward to hearing from you!
P.S. A shout-out to Tracy Raver and Kelley Ryden, sisters in Omaha, Neb. who specialize in newborn photography. Tracy was featured on the Today Show this week, and her segment has appeared on many news outlets since. Here’s a link to some of their gorgeous newborn images shown on the Today Show: Today Show slideshow
There’s nothing more exciting than watching my clients’ families grow, and some of the babies I’ve photographed previously turn into big sisters and brothers. Evelyn was less than a year old the last time I saw her, and now she’s a proud big sister to Julia, one of the most content newborns I’ve ever photographed.
How blessed they are with two gorgeous girls! Congrats!
I’ve been really lucky this year to photograph so many twins (and a set of triplets, too!)–I think these sweet little guys may have been my sixth set this year, but my first set of identicals. I’m not sure Joe and me are parents who are cut out to be parents of multiples (especially if we had two Isaacs–oy!), but I sure do love working with twins and imagining how awesome it would be to grow up with a buddy who shares your same great looks and the same age. What a cool thing that would be.
How in the world did I become the mother of a third and first grader? At least I still have one at home, though he’ll be starting pre-preschool (well, that’s my name for it ;) next week. It’s pretty sad to see him wandering around this morning wondering where his brother and sister went.
