A Springtime Newborn Session for a Sweet Baby Boy: Albany Newborn Baby Photographer

Every time a family walks into the photography studio with their brand new baby, I feel so excited and honored to capture these sweet moments for them.   New moms & dads have had their world turned upside down and inside out with the arrival of their little miracle baby, and they are adjusting to all sorts of new schedules and routines, but for a few hours we slow it all down and just soak in the newness of their tiny little one.  We celebrate this amazing little life and capture all of the tiny details.

Every newborn session is filled with lots of cuddles, and Lucas's session was no exception.  This little boy was such a sweetheart and I loved capturing his tiny newborn goodness from the other side of my lens.  His parents both enjoyed the delivery of his wall art and fine art album yesterday, making today the perfect day to showcase his studio newborn session with a blog post!

This little boy was such a good sleeper, and he was in dreamland for most of our session!  I just love these beautiful images that we were able to capture of this sleepy little baby during his newborn session.  When his mom told me that she wanted some springtime colors for her springtime baby, I was so happy to pull out my favorite vintage quilt for his set up.

These sleepy little photos below are some of my favorites, and I just love how tiny and cozy Lucas is all tucked into his little bed.  Plus, doesn't he have the most handsome and adorable profile in the second image?  Those little lips and that tiny bump of a nose, plus his mini mohawk.... ahhhhhh!!!  Doesn't it melt your heart?!?!

Every time I go to Larz Anderson Park, I fall in love with a new hidden little area of their gorgeous, expansive park.  It truly is the perfect little place for photo shoots because no two sessions will ever be the same!  This time when I met the S family at the park, I was determined not to replicate any photos or locations I had used previously with another recent family session.  Looking at what we captured together with mom, dad, Mikey, and Anna, I'd say it was a success!

I absolutely adore this photo of everyone cuddling together beneath a backlit tree.  When we do family sessions, the children are the priority and we keep it playful, fun, and light.  During our time together, Mikey and I talked about superheroes and ran through the trees where he found this perfect little spot for his family.  Tickles, laughter, and natural smiles.  What a fun session!

During our ordering appointment, mom and dad both fell in love with this photo of their little loves on my vintage quilt!  This is one of my favorite props, a flea market score at the Brimfield Antique Fair last summer.  It comes with me to nearly every summertime session for that fun pop of color, cuddly, and vintage.

This 16x20 canvas is now bringing smiles and cheer to the entryway of their home.  Imagine down the stairs and seeing this every morning?  That's sure to start your day off right!

Another thing that I love about regular family sessions is capturing your children's milestones!  Anna is just learning to take her first (assisted) steps, and now her family will forever be able to remember that when she is running around at full-speed in just a few short months.

Love their photos?  Check out the rest of their session with Anna's beautiful cake smash photos here in this post!
