Sibling Newborn Session at The Studio at Fountain City Not that long ago, I took newborn photos of big brother Jackson in these same swaddles in my studio. Now, I’m taking sibling newborn photos for this family, and it brings me so much happiness. It is a complete joy to watch my AMP Couples grow […]

The White Room Newborn Session The Armstrongs came from Kingsport for their White Room newborn session in West Knoxville. There are very specific instructions I give to every family before a newborn session. There are separate sets of instructions based on where we are meeting. I don’t have instructions for if the family is coming […]

A Sweet Unexpected at Home Newborn Session I take a lot of baby photos. The longer I do this job, the more often I get to photograph them. Oftentimes as my wedding couples grow their families, they come back to me for baby photos. In all the fresh babes I’ve done, I’ve only had a […]

Bright-Eyed 2 Month Studio Portraits When my babies were infants, I could set them down for a maximum of 10 minutes before they would start screaming at me to pick them up again. Fast forward, and they self play really well and don’t need my attention every 5-10 minutes. In the beginning, however, it was […]

An In-Home Christmas Newborn Session Mila was supposed to come during the week between Christmas and the new year.

When I photograph adorable home newborn sessions, I always tell the families they can have any props they want me to use ready and waiting.

Space Theme Nursery for this Newborn Session For all the newborns I have photographed, I have yet to see a space theme nursery, but it was SO stinking cute. Who knew they had so much outer space decor you could use in a nursery? As I was welcomed into the Wertzes’ home and saw all […]

Newborn Studio When photographing newborns with their toddler siblings, you can never really predict how it’s going to go. You can never set expectations because newborns and toddlers are the most unpredictable of all the unpredictables. So, I always go into these sessions with a completely open mind so I can just shift and mold […]

Home Newborn Session There are two primary types of newborn photographers. The ones that have you come to their studio because they have a bunch of props and a backdrop system. They have an off camera flash setup and a wardrobe for mom to wear. The babies are usually sound asleep for this entire session […]
