welcome to the Blog 

While on vacation on Prince Edward Island, I told myself I was not working for a few days but when the phone rang I answered it quickly not thinking and I am so glad that I did! I received the sweetest phone call, a good friend wanted all information regarding gifting her good friends the cost of her newborn session for her twin boys,  she was expecting. I do not get too many opportunities to work with twins and I was very excited (they are actually only the second set of boy twins)!

Working with twins requires extra patience, more hands and careful planning. Often they are a bit smaller or born earlier then the majority of our clients and sometimes they break the rules for age. Ideally, I prefer to photograph newborns at 4-10 days of age. They are still very ‘womb-like’, will curly nicely and will sleep much deeper. If a baby is born premature, we adjust the timeframe taking into consideration health, weight and adjusted age. Once we had word both boys and Mama were coming home from the hospital we scheduled their session.

The twin boys arrived healthy and sweet as could be. My assistant and Jen and I each had a baby to cuddle and they loved to snuggle with each other!  I know how fast the first few days fly by, between feedings, diaper changes, the lack of sleep…I can only imagine that being doubled! I am so glad I had the opportunity to capture this brief time in their life. Mom and Dad had the chance to sit back and relax and watch us pose the cuties and Jen and I gently posed them.

I styled this session with a vintage rustic style that will be timeless (vintage rustic is my favourite!),  matching cream mohair bonnets, simple cotton and knitted wraps and rich brown fur rugs. Keeping the props simple we focused on their tiny little details and the overwhelming cuteness of twin boys!

We were even gifted a little smile or two! Enjoy these images as much as I had creating them 🙂

One of my favourite parts of a newborn session is the planning and collaborating with parents. I am constantly sourcing new props and accessories for my tiny clients and I love when I get a request that I know I can get very creative! Baby Harlow’s (isn’t her name amazing?) Mama wanted something white and natural. I had white backs drops and props and to give it a unique look I brought the natural outside into the studio by cutting some hydrangeas, that were in season, from a property I own and some wildflowers from my own garden. The results was a perfect blend of of the simple clean white palette and the natural wild flowers.

She was so sweet to work with! So beautiful and perfect and her big brother was sweet and curious about his new little sister.

Scheduling winter babies for their first photo session can sometimes be a bit tricky and require some flexibility due to the weather being bad and poor Rhett’s session was no exception! We pushed the date around and the roads were still tricky to maneuver but we all made it safe and sound into the studio (which was toasty warm!). His family travelled from Moncton to my Saint John studio and I am so glad they made the trip.

Rhett was a DREAM baby! His mama was so excited for  his session and I think he was feeding off her energy because he wanted to please us by posing beautifully and sleeping like he was born to be photographed! This is a family that understood the importance of capturing this very brief moment in their children’s lives. They also had newborn pictures taken of their daughter and commented how fast babies grow up. I am so glad I had to chance to make more memories for them!

With the holidays approaching we added a sweet holiday theme set up  while keeping with my rustic neutral style.

Sweet Rhett you were so much fun to photograph! I am so glad you came!

Oh little Noah!! You are so loved and adored by your family! Your Mommy was so excited for your arrival and this session captured this brief moment as a newborn. So new and perfect, you snuggled up and had a little sleep while Jen and I posed you. Every baby is unique and you kept us giggling because you were determined to keep you little mouth open and sneaking in little smiles when you thought we were not looking. But I captured one!

You have the sweetest little ‘fur-brother’ who looks so big next to your tininess. Someday soon you will engulf him with your size but for a short period of time Monkey was the ‘big’ dog in the house!

I am so glad I had the chance to meet your wonderful to family and to snuggle you!

This fall, Quispamsis had the sweetest new baby girl join their ranks! She was just as cute as her older big brother (who was an awesome snuggler when it came time for his pictures with her!) and so fun and sweet to pose! She graced us with a few pictures with her eyes wide open but pretty soon we were able to lure her to sleep so we could have some fun with props and posing!

Posing newborns is safer and achieved easier when little ones are snoozing away. She was a dainty little thing and looked so tiny and sweet in the antique crate!

I am so glad I had the opportunity to meet this wonderful family and get to know them. I love knowing that the artwork in family’s homes is of their beautiful children!

I love I receive a call from someone who is wishing  to gift a newborn session to someone that means to much to them! It is such an amazing gift capturing this brief and fleeting time, that is over before we realize. Little Ava’s Momma received the newborn session as a gift and we had some much fun with this tiny little baby girl at my Saint John photography studio!

She was tiny but so strong! I always work with an assistant because I feel it is the safest method when using props and working with unpredictable little ones. Ava was the poster child for needing an assistant! She moved a little with every breath and was so strong with lifting her head suddenly and straightening her little body. She made us work for every pose but it was worth all of the effort! She took our breath away with her perfection and sweetness.

I have been ordering new custom designed newborn outfits and the first had arrived from Mia Joy Couture and it fit her perfectly! Her session had beautiful variety in colours and textures.
