SO CUTE – NEWBORN BABY BOY SNUGGLING A BEAR

Each week I get to capture new families in their sweet newborn baby session.

Each of them a tiny little miracle. What a dream!!

Don’t you just love baby boys and their sweet little faces? This sweet boy was such a cutie and the first image with him snuggling our baby bear is mine (and his Mom & Dad’s!!) very favorite from his newborn session here in Victoria. Catching a sweet smile is always so special 🙂

I love that they chose both blues and greens and these deeper colors were just perfect with his hair color! We even got to use our new pompom bonnet which is perfect for winter babies.

LEARN | Newborn Workshop with Nicole Smith Photography

I am very fortunate to have been in Vancouver, BC this summer at just the right time to attend Nicole Smith Photography’s Newborn Workshop!! World renown, Nicole brought her stunning warm and moody newborn portraits to life for us, openly sharing her tips and tricks & stunning poses (as well as being the cutest thing to boot in the meantime;)!!

We shared a full day with 4 gorgeous little newborn models watching soothing, posing & wrapping techniques and then taking turns capturing images of these little beauties to share with you!

We were also spoiled rotten by some wonderful vendors whose work you should seriously check out:

Spoiled even further by our own personal trunk show put on by the lovely Shawna who is the talent behind Wild Blossom Props http://www.wildblossomprops.bigcartel.com/. Her handknit items were drool-worthy and I came away with a gorgeous little package of goodies to soon be used in the studio.

Being able to meet with some other photographers back in Canada was so much fun and I look forward to seeing more of these girls upon our return next summer.

Special thanks to our gracious host Cathy Kam who opened up her beautiful studio to us all!! http://cathykamphotography.com/

Here are some photos from the day.

SNUGGLE | Newborn Maternity Baby Photographer

A short time ago I was approached by Dubai-based blogger Heidi. It is a blog “celebrating the UAE’s smart, stylish mums which covers everything that is fun and beautiful about mothering” here. Absolutely. Heidi’s posts are always interesting and they cover a wide range of topics which as a mum are not only informative but fun to read.

So when she contacted me, it was exciting to hear of her interest to observe a newborn baby photo session♥ She asked me to photograph her gorgeous friend’s 6 day old baby girl, Mila. My assistant Clare and I headed off from Al Ain to Dubai and after getting a little lost on the way (Dubai has a way of doing that to you;) we got settled in.

Mila was a darling!! Wide awake at first she took everything in but over the course of the morning we persuaded her to sleep to catch some precious memories for her Mum & Dad:). We used creamy natural tones with a touch of pink which was lovely with her skin tone.

Enjoy Mila’s session share here, and then pop over to Heidi’s blog to read her write-up (sorry link no longer exists). Thanks for stopping by and do not hesitate to contact me for newborn pictures and baby photography information!!

Please note that as of Jun 2016 I have moved my newborn baby pictures and Maternity photography studio to Victoria BC in Canada.

Thinking about booking your newborn baby photography session in Victoria BC? It’s never too early! Newborn baby picture sessions take place within 5-12 days after baby’s birth and my calendar fills up quickly. It is suggested that you book your newborn photographer at the beginning of your second trimester to guarantee room on their calendar around your baby’s estimated due date. I can’t wait to take your precious baby’s photos!
