Newborn Photography, 11 Days makes a Big Brother and a Little Sister

I met these guys when this big brother was only 12 days himself..and now at almost 3, he has a new little beautiful sister on the scene.

Shoots with a toddler and a newborn are verrrrry different than the zenlike shoots of a newborn alone. Ha! There is a lot to balance and mostly it's about this life change that has happened for the little toddler, once the only adorable one in the spotlight, having to share. It's no doubt confusing, scary, and exciting for them all at once. And more often than not, they'd rather be playing with any number of toys close by than holding their new itty bitty sibling...but when it happens, it's precious... in a kind of forever way.

Thanks for inviting me to photograph your new family of 4!
It was such a treat.

Newborn Photography, 15 Days!

So remember that insanely joyful and beautiful couple that I photographed getting married in Vermont here and here, well, they are now plus 1!

And omg, she's like a little chicklet, freshly hatched, with the softest most beautiful tufts of white blonde hair in town. Seriously! She's a little Goldilocks! She couldn't wait to get this party started, coming a little less than 3 weeks early, and is as perfect as can be...smiling and sleeping throughout the shoot...she is a total dream.

Stefanie is a make up stylist with a line of her own, and I have no doubt one day soon, we may be seeing photos of her doing make up with this little package of love strapped on hanging with the girls in a perfect mommy-daughter outing.

So excited for you guys.
Thanks for inviting me to capture your little beauty and new family at 15 days.
