I met baby Ezra when he was still in his mommy’s belly during her maternity portrait session this Fall and today I had the honor to capture his newborn portraits at the young age of four days. He was a hungry lil’ man, but still allowed us to get some adorable images of him. He’s so cute with that black hair and he makes the most adorable sounds. We did learn a few things about this young man today; he doesn’t especially enjoy tummy time, he really loves being swaddled, he loves it when daddy walks with him using short baby steps and he seems to like the sound of the ocean. His parents are glowing in their new roles and I’m sure this family will have a fun-filled future together. Enjoy the sneak peek!

Sydney had only been in the world for 7 days when I had the honor to capture some portraits of her and the family. She was so good for me and her parents seemed so relaxed and happy with their new daughter. It’s such a special and exciting time in a family’s life when welcoming in a newborn to the mix and it’s such privilege to be welcomed into their homes to photograph those moments. Thank you for trusting me with your new baby and for allowing me to get those portraits for you that will surely become family heirlooms.
