Why hire someone to come and take pictures of your precious baby? Because those days in the hospital and the first few weeks at home are a blur. And if you do not have children already, please take my word for it, babies change so fast. By the time you are ready to leave the hospital, they have changed. Also, a photographer will be sure to capture all of those details that you might not think to photograph, but will become important to you later on. But also as important, a photographer will be able to actually film you with your baby. I have no pictures of me with my firstborn, other than one my mother took, and I regret it. I really don’t like how I look and I wish I had photos of how small she was in my arms. As a photographer, my job is to film my freshly made mommas in the best possible light and angles to demonstrate not how you look but the memory of you with your baby. And your new family. Trust me on this. I love that I don’t have to tell new mommies and daddies to smell their baby, touch them, kiss them….that magic happens all on its own, and I am there capturing it all. THAT is the reason for newborn photographs.
This sweet girl was 13 days old when I met her. She slept like a champ, together with Mom and Dad, we captured these memories. Enjoy your sneak peek {T} family, can’t wait to show you the rest. xo, Jen
