Markham Newborn

I have a special place in my heart for baby girls. Having two of my own it brings back to many memories. Plus girls get all the cute accessories for newborn sessions like tiebacks and flowers. They allow me to be a little more creative!

Maybe you know or maybe you don’t, but newborn photographers like to do sessions between 7-14 days after birth. Obv things vary like the size of the baby, gestation and so on. However, with Covid, limits were tested and the bright side is there is hope for older babies. They are a little harder to pose sometimes (again depends on the baby), but great things can happen! This little girl was 5 weeks old at her session and totally rocked it.  One of the sweetest, calmest babies I’ve had.

I would still recommend coming in for your session earlier as things like baby acne and cradle cap can pop up after the 2 week mark, but don’t shy away if you couldn’t make the typical timeline. You deserve newborn photos!

Baby Gia

Newborn photography is fun.  Babies don’t scare me anymore.  Never thought the day would come but I actually don’t worry about legs falling off or barf all over.  Funny how we grow up. Live and learn I guess.

Baby Gia is the one that made me realize all this.  Yes she pooped and obviously it got on my hand, but I didn’t pass out.  Shocking right?!?!?! Poop and me don’t get along. It makes me feel all sorts of sick.  Not this time.

Think of all the possibilities now that I have conquered my fear!

I however haven’t gotten past the fact that babies look like other people – parents, siblings, the milkman (just kidding – old school joke). Once I start editing I can see expressions and facial features similar to others and in this case it’s her older brothers.  She looks just like Carson in my opinion but then there were a couple shots that she looked just like Logan.  So weird! In all instances these kids look just like their father. Just check his Instagram and Facebook. Maybe when she’s a bit older we will see more of her beautiful mom.  Can’t wait to capture more of these moments with you guys!

Baby Clara

I don’t know what it is about baby girls – they just look so cuddly and cute.  Baby Clara was absolutely a doll during her newborn photography session and made me fall in love with her within minutes.  Clara is the first born so I’m sure she will get all the spoiling she deserves.  When I spoke to her parents they wanted to do something different.  Something unique and that was personal to them.  Cue the most beautiful quilt ever.  Made by an aunt with love, this was by far my favourite backdrop to date.  So many soft colours and patterns!  I’ve already asked my mom to take a quilting class but the negotiations are still ongoing.

 

When I suggested we do some photographs and incorporate books, mom was all over it.  Turns out dad is math teacher and just so happened to have a text book around.  I know Clara looks all cozy but she did put up a fight.  Do you blame her?!?!?!?! Math is at the bottom of almost everyone’s favourite subject list.  That being said, it’s no wonder she quickly feel asleep for us.  No offence to all you number crunchers!

 

Can’t wait to see her grow up.  Congrats to both of you!
