There is something so sweet about newborn sessions that I can not explain. This precious baby girl was a little doll and so alert throughout our whole session this morning. I loved how she’d seem to follow me with those big blue/grey eyes as I would move around the room. She was a little talker too and loved talking to her momma. Its was the cutest thing. I just can’t get enough of the sweet baby sounds newborns make even with all the fussing and crying that happens in-between.
As a special treat momma wanted to include her mother’s baby shoes for the session which you will see her holding in one of the photos. I really had a great time playing with this beautiful baby girl and her momma.

Precious little girl fell asleep in her mom’s arms holding onto her shirt. Momma says she does this all-the-time 

As with all newborn sessions there are always plenty of breaks to eat. Momma and baby were having a little chat and then she was wide awake all over again. It is clear there is a special bond between momma and her baby.



I just love this one. There is something magical about momma’s pinky

A year ago today I shot my very first wedding for my friends Nicole and Nick. Yesterday they gave me the honor to witness and photograph my very first birth as they brought a brand new baby boy into this world. awww =) I have the greatest friends.

Before I went to bed the night before I had no idea I was going to witness the awesome miracle of life. I woke up to the wonderful surprise that my friend Nicole was in labor. We had talked about it soon after she found out that she was pregnant that I could come when it came time for her to give birth but honestly I never really knew for sure if that was going to happen because I have 3 kiddos myself and a hubby who works crazy hours. Despite it all, the timing was perfect and I arrive just minutes before this little guy said hello to this world.

Meet baby Jackson. I had a chance to photograph this precious little guy yesterday. He was not much of a fan of the camera but loved the lamb skin. I think he looks like a little angel. All he is missing are the wings =)
Here is a little preview for mom and family. Thank you for letting me play with your little guy yesterday.

I absolutely love it when I get a chance to have an outdoor newborn session which is almost equally exciting as checking out a new location. Our session took place at what has become my new favorite location, the Sonoma Horticultural Nursery.
Baby Lana is just 7 weeks old and I know her parents are anxiously awaiting to see a preview of thier session.
Already it was clear to see the special bond between daddy and his baby girl. One day daddy will look back and remember how tiny his precious girl used to be.

This bumble bee set is something my mom made for me on mother’s day.

Its been so long since I had a change to play with a brand new baby. This little guy is just 2 weeks old. It wasn’t long ago that I met with his mom for maternity photos. He was bright eyed during most of our session but loved the fuzzy blankets so would take little cat naps when I left him alone.

A new prop: A dear friend of mine made this for me. This was the first time using this little hat. I love the color.

So Peaceful: This little hat was made special by a friend. At this point I wore out this little guy and he was taking a nap.

The Wagon: I have been wanting to use this for a session and finally got a chance
