Did you know that newborn portraits are “supposed” to happen before baby is 7-10 days old?

Of course, that’s a challenge because those first 7 days just seem like 2 reeeaally long days, and before you blink they’re over and it’s hard to prioritize anything when you are as exhausted as a mother.

This little one was 31 days old by the time we did his portraits, and I was a little nervous about how he would behave.

Reader, he behaved beautifully. Like most babies, he loved being swaddled and rocked and so he slept and we were able to create some gorgeous portraits.

We went on location for these portraits and actually “set up shop” in my client’s living room, facing the window. There was a gorgeous, diffused light coming in. 2 different outfits + 2 different backdrops created a beautiful medley of 4 looks so the client could mix and match her final collection.
