BABY GIRL

Atlanta Baby Photographer | Oona's Nine Month Milestone Session

in

We recently featured Oona's newborn session, six month session, and her parents' maternity session. This is her 9 month milestone session!

   Most clients opt for newborn, sitting, and first birthday sessions, but we have some clients choose to celebrate 3 months/100 days old and 9 months too. You can never have too many photographs! 

    Oona's mom chose to have her wear a traditional kimono for part of the session and then chose a sweet white eyelet lace dress from the studio wardrobe for the rest. Nine month sessions are some of my favorites... babies have such unique personality traits and pudgy little fingers and toes. I loved Oona's teensy little pigtails and made sure to document that for her mama as well.  

     Nine month sessions are relaxed and easygoing. We spend time just playing while I capture your baby being just who they are at that time in their life. I always ask parents to quietly sit on the couch and observe. While your intent may be to help, your baby can become confused if you're standing right behind the photographer calling to them. They don't know where to look, they're in a new environment, and they can quickly become overwhelmed. The studio is a calm and peaceful environment and I approach babies in the same way. The quieter, the better! Here are a few of my favorites from Oona's nine month session. I can't wait to share images from her FIRST BIRTHDAY session in a couple of days. This little girl LOVES birthday cake, as you will see!

Atlanta Fresh 48 Photographer | Camille, 12 hours old at Northside Hospital

in ,

When Crystal emailed me to tell me that she was expecting her second baby and wanted to book a Fresh 48 and newborn session, I was so excited! I had worked with Crystal for her maternity and Fresh 48 sessions with their first child and loved working with their sweet family. She elected not to do a maternity session this time around since she was so close to her due date when she contacted me. 

Crystal let me know that she was scheduled for an induction so that I would have the heads up on scheduling their session. Well, little Miss Camille had other plans and decided to start the process the day of her induction. :) Beat them to the punch! Crystal let me know that Camille had arrived, and I was able to schedule their session to take place before she was even 12 hours old. I arrived and started photographing Camille and her mommy. Phillip (dad) arrived with big sister Grace and it was so sweet to see Grace meeting her new baby sister and talking to her. Many families schedule Fresh 48's so that they can document their older child meeting their new sibling. I did the same thing with my children, and I can state from personal experience that it's so nice to let a professional document the meeting so you can soak those precious moments in without missing things by being behind an iPhone or your own camera. Live in the moments that will never happen again and be fully present for them! That's what I'm here for. 

You can see some images from big sister Grace's Fresh 48 session by clicking here. It's so neat to see both girls and see how different and unique they looked. I am sure they will be the closest and best of friends as they grow up. My two older daughters have an age difference of 22.5 months and they are inseparable. They love each other just as fiercely as they sometimes fight.
