Eugene, Oregon newborn photographer: Welcome Shaylee!

 Happy Wednesday, everybody! Halfway through the week—we got this! I hope your week is going great, but if not, here’s a little something to brighten it up. Because baby pictures make everything better!

Ashley, Heath, and big sister Shelby brought beautiful new baby Shaylee to see me for a newborn photography session. They made the drive to my Eugene, Oregon photography studio all the way from Drain, and I’m so glad they did! It was a pleasure to meet this sweet family and spend a couple of hours with them capturing memories of this special time.

When I said Shaylee was beautiful, I meant it! Okay, okay, as a newborn photographer I admit, I think every baby I get to photograph is adorable. But with her milk white skin, blonde hair, and big gorgeous lips, Shaylee was seriously perfect and it was a joy to take pictures of her. Plus, she was an amazing sleeper to boot. I couldn’t have asked for better!

Since Shaylee was so cooperative, our session went really smoothly. I have lots of tricks up my sleeve when it comes to calming fussy babies, but it’s even better when I don’t have to use them! We were able to get tons of great shots, both of baby by herself and of baby with her parents and big sister. Shelby was such a sweetie and did a wonderful job with little sis. A lot of times when I do newborn and sibling pictures, it’s with a toddler sibling, so it’s kind of fun to work with kiddos that are just a tiny bit older. We have more posing options since they’re better able to interact safely with an infant, and it’s just fun to see their personalities and how nurturing they are with the newest member of the family.

Picking out colors for your newborn photography session is always fun. We did lots of pale pink with Shaylee, along with some splashes of color and a few black and white pictures to mix things up. Turned out so cute!

What a great experience to meet Ashley, Heath, and their adorable girls! And I’m super happy that I’ll see them in the studio again! Ashley decided to invest in the full first year package, so she’ll be bringing Shaylee in every three months over the first year for milestone baby and child photography sessions. I feel so lucky that I’ll be able to see them regularly, and I’m so excited to watch this baby girl grow! Can’t wait until our next session together!

Eugene, Oregon baby photographer: Hattie is ONE!

Hattie’s mom, Shanna, brought her in last month for a one year birthday cake smash photography session. Shanna (yes, her name is both spelled and pronounced the same as mine!) wanted to do a strawberry theme to go along with the banner and adorable outfit she had made for Hattie. What a talented lady! Looks like when it comes to the sewing machine she is a force to be reckoned with! Both the outfit and the banner were so cute and I was more than willing to figure out something a little different to match. 

Eugene, Oregon maternity photographer: Milk bath with Kelsey

Kelsey came in for a milk bath maternity photography session last month. She was expecting a little boy in early November. Needless to say, he is here now! I did his Fresh 48 photos in the hospital shortly after he was born, and will be doing his newborn photos as well. He’s such a sweetheart! Be sure to keep an eye on the blog   for his pictures!

Eugene, Oregon baby photographer: 6-month milestone session with Lily

 Oh my goodness, you are going to love the photos of this sweet baby girl! What an angel face! Audrey and Daniel brought Lily to my Eugene, Oregon photography studio at the end of March for her 6-month milestone photography session. Most of the 6-month-olds I photograph are little ones I took pictures of as newborns, but Lily and her parents were first-time clients. It was wonderful to meet them. And we had so much fun together! I usually set aside an hour for milestone sessions, but I very rarely use the whole time with 6-month-olds because they tend to get tired by about the 40 minute mark. Not Lily! She was sweet-faced and smiley the entire hour. I didn’t even want to stop at that point because we were having such a good time. And honestly, she was probably one of the most gorgeous, photogenic babies I’ve ever photographed. She seriously has the most perfect little face! She loved the camera, and the camera definitely loved her! Because Lily was so happy and cooperative, we go...
