Honestly, I have been so busy in the studio lately with so many newborns. There has been a huge baby boom, and I am so happy about it! Here, meet beautiful Leonora. Today, this gorgeous girl was so amazing at her newborn photography session! Truthfully, I am so honored and blessed with such amazing clients. Sometimes, clients come back year after year, and I love watching the children grow up. And, then I have clients who are referred by friends, which is the greatest compliment I can receive. Also, clients google search Newborn Photography near me, and trust in me to capture these moments for them.
Now, sweet baby Leonora was just a perfect little sleeper at her newborn shoot. I think she liked being all snuggled up in soft pink hats and blankets. This way, she could take the perfect little snooze while I worked the camera!
I don’t think there is anything sweeter right now than this adorable big brother, kissing his baby sister!
Again, we were able to get so many sleeping images of baby girl, along with head band changes, prop changes, and different backgrounds.
Sometimes, we get lucky, and get the cutest little sleeping baby with the biggest smile!
Here, we went with the softest look in this swaddle and bed pose. As a reminder, all the blankets, head bands, hats, wraps, props that I post on my blog and social media are all available to use at any of my newborn studio sessions.
Sweet, sleepy baby girl, in the cutest little bow, with her fingers peeking through!
Here, sweet Leonora is still sound asleep, for her entire newborn session, and just perfect!
To finish, we had to add in a black and white image from the session. As always, I give my clients the black and white image along with color, with all their photos.

These sweet images take me back to where my newborn photography journey began over 14 years ago.
When I first started, posed newborn photography was the style. Every image was carefully planned and thoughtfully created, requiring extensive training, hands-on workshops, and a deep understanding of newborn safety, comfort, and posing techniques. Creating those timeless curled-up poses wasn’t just about taking a photo, it was about learning an art form while always putting baby’s well-being first.
Over the years, newborn photography has evolved. Today, many families are drawn to a more natural, baby-led approach that focuses on genuine connection, movement, and simple moments. I absolutely love incorporating those elements into my sessions as well.
What makes my approach unique is that I continue to offer my signature posed newborn style while blending it with more natural, baby-led moments. This allows me to create a gallery filled with both beautifully crafted portraits and authentic images that reflect your baby’s personality.
While trends may change, there will always be something special about those classic newborn portraits—the ones that highlight just how tiny, precious, and brand new your little one is.
Which style do you love most: timeless posed portraits, natural baby-led moments, or a combination of both?
