Bracken’s Newborn Pictures

It’s been a while since I’ve done newborn boy portraits.  So I was really excited after talking with Kilee  about some ideas and props that we were going to try to incorporate in little Bracken’s first photo shoot!  I’ve been waiting for the chance to use some antlers in a newborn session; so when Kilee mentioned using them I was even more excited.

Not only was Bracken a champ, but his parents did a spectacular job getting him ready for the shoot.  He had a nice full tummy, was wearing only a diaper  and was ready for a nap.  The prep work prior to a newborn portrait session and the calm attitudes of the parents during a session is what makes newborn portraits successful.   Mom, Dad and Bracken all did their part.

Here are a couple of my favorites.  Click the following link to check out all of Bracken’s proofs.

Newborn Little Girl

This is the second time I have done newborn portraits for the Galbraith family.  Just over a year ago I was photographing little Vivian’s brother, Deacon.  His newborn portraits were some of my favorite and I didn’t think a baby could get anymore laid back…until I was done with Vivian’s portraits.  Little Vivian was an angel for her first portrait session!  Her photos are as delicate and timeless as her name.  There is an extra dynamic to shooting newborn portraits.  You not only have to know how to work a camera; you have to have a lot of patience.  Newborn sessions like Vivian’s spoil me.  Here are some of my favorites.  Click here to view all of Vivian’s Newborn Portraits.

Treadway Extended Family

Family Portraits, Fort Wayne Family Photographer

Extended family portraits can be challenging to arrange.  In todays busy world it can be difficult to feel like you have time to breath; let alone get family members together, hair combed, noses booger free and oh yea you have to coordinate outfits. I mean…that takes a lot of time and effort!

I love families who take the time to recognize how important it is to capture precious memories of their growing families with an extended family portrait session.  This extended family portrait session brought family members all the way from sunny Florida!  Now that is making time and giving effort!  It is difficult for me to get a picture of my family and we all live within 10 square miles of each other.

The Treadway family was absolutely extraordinary to work with.  We had tons of fun and captured some great family portraits along with a bunch of other great shots.  Here are some of my favorites…Follow the link to view the entire family portrait session.

Madison and I have worked together for over 6 years!  I love getting to be a part of these moments.  Thank you Madison for always trusting me to capture memories of your family as it grows.

Little Lawson had his first portrait session this past weekend.  What a sophisticated name…I love it!  Even though Lawson preferred to be in Mom’s arms we were still able to get some fantastic newborn shots.   We even got big brother Blake in a couple.  It wasn’t that long ago that Blake was getting his newborn portraits taken.  Here are some of my favorites.  Click here to view Lawson’s entire newborn session.

Everly Anne Newborn Portraits

My sister and her husband just welcomed their first little peanut.  Everly Anne was born on May 23rd at 10:04.  I was fortunate enough to be in the delivery room and witness my niece come into the world!  Alysse and I live about 3 1/2 hours away from each other, but we still made it a point to get some great portraits along the way.  I shot their maternity pictures 6 weeks prior to Ms. Everly’s birth.

After everyone was settled at home I came down for Everly’s newborn portraits!  They are absolutely stunning.  She was born on Monday and we shot the newborn pictures on Saturday.  Newborn portraits should be taken no more than 2-3 weeks after the birth.  We had so much fun and Everly did so good.  Here are some of my favorites…Check out the entire newborn session here.

Congrats Alysse and Tommy!  You are going to be wonderful parents.
