Natural Light & Newborns

Tiny Fingers & Tiny Toe

The morning came to photograph this sweet baby girl and as I gathered my lighting and camera gear as always, the butterflies hit! Newborn photography can be so challenging yet so rewarding. I never know if baby will be sleeping or wide awake searching for the familiar smell of mom. This sweet child was sound asleep on the couch when I arrived and my nerves were put at ease. Her mom carried her so gently up the stairs to a beautiful room with so much natural light, I did not even unpack all the lighting gear I packed into the car. The lighting can be so important when photographing humans, especially newborns. The light can make or break your photographs. The images that came from this adorable new family are priceless and will almost be one of my favorites!
