Nora {Boulder Newborn Photographer}

One of my favorite parts about being self employed are the unexpected phone calls I get that completely change my day. Friday I was at the library with my kids and received a request for a newborn photoshoot. Could I fit them in? Sure! When? How about today! Having my own kids has taught me that you have to remain flexible and if you do some pretty great stuff can come your way.

Meet Nora, she is pretty amazing.

I don’t bring a lot of newborn props because I want the images to be meaningful to the family. Mom had the idea to add the nut butters because Justin’s Nut Butter is their company. I love it (and the nut butter- seriously, if you haven’t tried them you are missing out)! The blanket Nora is sleeping on was her mom’s and so was that apple. I had one of those apples and loved it.

10 Days New {Louisville, CO Newborn Photographer}

This little lady was amazing for her newborn photo session. For almost two and a half hours I barely heard one whimper of protest from her. She seemed so content just to take in everything going on around her.

I love being welcomed into people’s home, and capture these moments for them. There is so much excitement, joy and nervousness surrounding a new baby. Seriously, pinch me that this is my job!

Modeling is exhausting!Dads seem to make the best swaddles.Can’t forget the first baby. What a mug!

Oliver {Denver Newborn Photographer}

Meet Oliver. He had his first photo session this past weekend at just barely two weeks old.

The family had some great props that reflected their interests and it is the best way to get really personalized photographs; I also like the challenge of using something that I have never tried before. How cute is he in this helmet? No worries about safety, mom’s hand was holding the helmet the whole time!Beautiful mom!

I am a sucker for Baby and Dad pictures.

And last but not least, Zeus, their house-guest-soon-to-hopefully-be-full-fleded-family-member. He was a doll. I loved both versions of this photo so why not post both!

And for those cloth diaper lovers out there, Oliver is wearing a newborn diaper from Go Green Baby Company, located here in Colorado. These are a great newborn sized cloth diaper perfect for photos (and everyday use) where you don’t want a bare bum but want something cuter than a disposable diaper.
