Jax David {@ 17 days}

When you are born to a very creative and talented mama, your house and nursery reflect her! It was a dream to do a newborn session for Kayla, I left feeling like she was my new friend :) You can check out her adorable bakery http://www.theroundhousebakery.com

Newborn sessions are part lifestyle and part baby portrait.  Lifestyle newborn sessions take place at-home and concentrate on the love and connection that the family already have for this new baby.  I like to capture special moments with each family member as well as the family together. I will also capture baby alone and while I'll pose the baby a little, I keep it very natural and baby lead posing...

Here is a sneak into Jax newborn session!

🐄🐄🐄

Here is a glimpse inside a beautiful black and white farmhouse outside of Stillwater, OK. This house is full of love and is growing in number! The cows were roaming right outside the windows and serenading us with their long 'mooooos'.  There is something so nostalgic about farm life to me....but I know most people (my husband included) who live or have lived on a working farm would say there is no nostalgia, just HARD WORK! 

Thank you for welcoming me into your home and letting me capture memories of those first few days home with a new baby.

Baby Fisher {Newborn Photography Session}

Newborn sessions are my jam!  I love doing them.  It is such a special time in your family’s life and I love helping you remember it.  There are many emotions during a newborn shoot—love, excitement, wonder, amazement and it's such a short time, so let me help you document it!  Here is some information to help you prepare for your upcoming newborn shoot.

The inside info...
My newborn sessions are part lifestyle and part baby portrait.  Lifestyle newborn sessions take place at-home and concentrate on the love and connection that the family already have for this new baby.  I'll capture special moments with each family member as well as the whole family together. If baby has big siblings, we usually do those first.  I will also capture baby alone and while I'll pose the baby a little, I keep it very natural and baby lead posing.

Do I have to clean my whole house?
NO WAY!   Don't worry about cleaning—you just had a baby, and I'm an expert at hiding junk!   The only thing I will ask you to do is have your bed made with a neutral comforter or quilt on top, if you have one :) We will often times use the nursery, living room, master bedroom...or wherever the best natural light is found.  If it is nice outside we may do some in the yard.  

What to wear? 
Good question, that's one of my favorites!  I recommend keeping it simple and comfortable! Neutral, light (creams, WHITES, grays or pastel tones) work best as they don't take away from your baby.   For this type of session I would skip the busy patterns.  If you need help with styling, I'm happy to help.

What should the baby wear?
A loose diaper or a white onesie.  I will bring swaddles to use and everything else I need to take baby portraits. I will show up on your door step with a bench of package :)I will bring everting I need to do portrait pictures of just your baby. 

How long are these sessions?
A typical newborn session takes 1.5-2 hours. When it comes to a newborn session, the baby is boss (but we don't tell them that), so we are flexible (and patient) and allow time to enough feeding and diaper changing breaks. :)

The Gangs All Here {Stillwater Ok Photographer}

This was a fun extended family session and the numbers are growing 😯 

What to say about this beautiful gang...?  

Well, I've known Taryn since 8th grade, joined her sorority and she joined my wedding party!  Her sister did the flowers for my big day and now along with her mom they run one of my favorite shops in downtown Stillwater, Greige Goods!

Kohlman {@ 7 days} Stillwater OK Photographer

When it's 90+ degrees outside it's the perfect temperature for a newborn :)

Newborn photography to me is ALL about the baby, less about the props and unique posing.  I guess I'm a minimalist.  I like to capture them just as they are...little toes, wrinkly feet, soft checks, peeling skin, endless expressions, skinny knees, pursed lips...These are the things I want to help you remember.

COEN {@ 8 days}

If you know this family... you can't help but love them! 

Newborn sessions to me, are so much more than just the baby!  I love capturing all the excitement with the older siblings and the joy between mom and dad.  All the good stuff!  It's such a short window of time, welcoming a newborn baby home, it's fun to look back at the pictures and remember.

How Sweet It Is

With every newborn session booked with me, I offer a mini-maternity session :)

'How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I needed the shelter of someone's arms and there you were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs and there you were
I want to stop and thank you baby'

Thatcher {@ 8 days} Oklahoma City, OK

'You got your mama's sunshine, you got your daddy's rain
You're like a piece of heaven in a hurricane
And it's bubbling over like a sweet champagne
You got your mama's sunshine, you got your daddy's rain

The things you say, the worlds you make, your heart I love to see
You've got a leaf on every single branch of our family tree
When you're all grown up, no longer a pup, going out into the great unknown
You'll find that little piece of you that you can call your own'
