There is something extra sweet about photographing a newborn with an older sibling - and Baby Alivia's session was overflowing with love and the best big-sister energy. Just 2 weeks old at the time of her shoot, Alivia was calm and sleepy while we captured all her tiny features.
Her big sister, Ava, joined in for some of the photos and let me say_ she absolutely stole the show. She was not only patient and gentle but truly the best little helper I've had in the studio in a long time! She was so proud and happy to cuddle her baby sister, and their bond already feels so strong. The sister shots are definitely some of my favorites from the session!

Alivia's momma is a nurse, and loves her some Starbucks, so we had to incorporate a fun shot as well! If you have a cool career or hobby you'd like to work in with baby, we can absolutely find a beautiful and fun way to do that!

Watching Avad gently hold her brand new baby sister reminded me of just how special and emotional this season is. It's more than just a photo session- it's preserving the beginning of a lifelong story between siblings. Welcome to the world sweet Alivia!!

2022 Newborn sessions are booking quickly. I highly recommend booking around 20 weeks to ensure that you have a spot. However, if you have had your baby and you are just now looking, don't hesitate to call and check. I save spots for the spontaneity of newborn births, so occasionally I will have last minute spots available.
