Tiny little fingers & tiny little toes. Cozy blankets, textured wraps, and natural wood accents. Lots of whites, creams, grays, and plenty of neutral colors with minimal props. That’s what our studio newborn sessions are all about.

We are so lucky to have two studio locations to welcome new families for their portrait sessions. We work with the most adorable newborns at our Saratoga Springs, NY newborn portrait studio, and Boston families in our Attleboro, MA newborn portrait studio.

These sessions are relaxed and calm as we showcase your tiny little baby in all their newborn perfection. They are simply amazing just the way they are, and we believe that you don’t need a lot of props or clutter in their portraits. Just a blanket, a wrap, or a simple hand knit outfit.

Timeless, classic, and clean is the style we shoot for in the studio, with a mix of candid family portraits as well as a few more posed ones with everyone looking at the camera — that’s what grandparents love to hang on their wall, after all!

In 2017 we welcomed more newborns to the studio than ever before, and it is always such an honor when a family trusts me to capture their tiniest miracle on camera for them. It’s a big job, and one that I love so much. I truly have to stop and marvel at it all sometimes, completely in awe that I get to spend my days cuddling these beautiful babies and creating gorgeous artwork for their families.

Every year I love going back through our sessions and sharing a few favorites on the blog. Enjoy a peek at a few of our most memorable studio newborn portraits from 2017, and be sure to check out our other “BEST OF 2017” blog posts!

If you’ve ever talked with me about our newborn sessions, you know that our lifestyle newborn sessions steal my heart every. single. time.

I am always so honored when parents invite me into their home to capture their little one’s first days at home with their family. Magic unfolds as they cuddle up with their brand new baby in a space that is filled with their family’s personality, a space that tells the beginning of this next chapter in their family’s story.

We typically shoot these sessions in the nursery, master bedroom, and living room. But I’ve been known to be a chaser of light, and if I see an amazing pocket of light in your hallway, dining room, or even a corner of your bathroom, you can bet we’ll go there for some great shots!

My favorite product to showcase these sessions at home is definitely our fine art album. These gorgeous linen-covered books are keepsakes that you will enjoy looking through with your children for the next 30 years, passing down to your kids one day when they have babies of their own. These books take all of your images and weave them together to tell a story, YOUR STORY. And there’s nothing better than the story of your family at home, in the place where every story begins.
