Oh Baby, Baby! - Gainesville Newborn Photographer

A week ago today, I had the awesome privilege of shooting my first (official) newborn session! For years I've been the baby paparazzi of my family and friends-- I took 100s of rolls of film during my niece's first year of life. But as an official photography business owner, I hadn't gotten the call for a newborn shoot until last Sunday. Little Miss Aubree was exactly 2 weeks old and was spectacular throughout the whole 3 1/2 hour shoot! Sure there were meal breaks and potty accidents -but that's less than what I expected for the day! ;) I've almost got all of the images done for her parents to view and of course I've gotta get my creativity on and do some collages but I had to go ahead and show off her beautiful little face here in the mean time!



I can't wait to do more newborn sessions, which should be coming up soon with my Mom's photo prop shoot. She's had some medical set-backs and it's going to be a bit longer than initially expected due to surgery. If you are one of the Mommies who will be bringing your baby to the shoot, don't fret - we will be scheduling it ASAP. ;)

That's all for now! I've got some summer fun to do today and then back to the editing grind tonight! Until next time, with more - Captured by Jess...

♥ It's A Boy! ♥

A friend of my husband and I was recently blessed with a baby boy. Logan was born quite early and has been in NICU since he was born on February 13th. He's a strong little trooper and is doing very well. Since he is so tiny, his father Arnaldo hasn't been able to hold him yet. He was sick and missed his first opportunity to do so this past weekend and is rightfully upset about it. In hopes to lift his spirits a bit, I created this little announcement/brag photo for him last night.





I "borrowed" the cell phone images from Arnaldo's Facebook page and tweaked them a little before adding them to the collage. I thought it turned out very cute and wanted to show it and little Logan off to all of you!
