Newborn Specials for 2011

Hoooooooooooray!!!

2011 is almost here!

As some of you know 2010 was not the best of years for us. Though we had many blessings along the way as well, I am ready to say goodbye to this year and start anew! We look forward seeing what will come in 2011 and have faith that it's going to be an amazing year. I pray that it will be an amazing year for all of you as well!

Now, for the fun stuff...so, many years ago, back in 1978 I was "New Years Baby" on the cover of our local paper. Here's a little momento my aunt made for me from the newspaper clipping. Enjoy the 70's charm ;).

So, in honor of this blast from the past, I am running a New Years Baby special from January 1st-February 15th.

Newborns grow up quickly and only keep that sleepy, wrinkly, tiny appearance for a few weeks before they move on to the other wonderful stages of babyhood. I prefer to do newborn shoots around their 2 week birthdays. This gives families a little time to get settled in but also avoids the 3 week growth spurt which can bring on more feedings and a little bit of restlessness.

Newborn shoots are done in the comfort of your own home and everything is brought to you. Things to remember if you book a newborn shoot:


~Many newborn pictures are shot showing their gorgeous newborn skin, so you will want to crank up the heat more then usual to keep them comfortable. Somewhere around 75 usually keeps them happy.

~Think about favorite or meaningful items you might want in the portraits. Handmade quilts, a favorite toy etc.

~Don't worry! Please don't worry about feeding, cuddling or changing your baby during the shoot. I am willing to take as much time as needed to allow babies to feel comfortable and secure during the shoot. If they need a time out for any reason I am always willing to stop and let them get comfortable before continuing the shoot.
