Claire 7 days old newborn portraits | Benicia, CA newborn portrait photographer

I had the pleasure of meeting D family for maternity session a few months ago and I was so excited to see them again for their little girl's newborn session this time!  I LOVE the way how her big brother was looking at her, the proud face of being a big brother and he was so sweet and gentle with his baby sister.  What a beautiful family of five.  I can't wait to document next milestone of Claire at 6 months old!    Enjoy the pictures !   This picture is going up on her nursery.

Mika 10days old | Newborn Portrait Photographer, San Jose, California

Mika was 10 days old when I photographed her.  She was so sweet and sleepy and her newborn session was just perfect!  While her big brother was jumping around, touching her nose, tickling her, she still slept through...   Mom requested to do newborn session at their new house in San Jose to capture Mika's precious time of beginning of her life.  I enjoy doing newborn session at client's house using their living room, backyard as a background and it's lots of fun.  I met T family last year  for holiday session and it's such a joy to watch family growing through my lens.  Congratulations, T family!  Can't wait to photograph Mika again when she is 6 months old!  Enjoy the pictures!! What a beautiful family. Big brother's love ♥ She look so tiny in daddy's hand ;-) Little princess!

Gavin’s 9 months old session | Lafayette, CA Baby Photographer

How cute is he??  I loved meeting Gavin for his 9 months old portraits.  His grandparents drove 2 hours to join the session, too!    Gavin joined my   Baby Collection so I will be photographing him again when he is 1 year old and 18 months old.  I love watching baby growing up through my lens ♥  Since Gavin's family lives in Oakland, I wanted to select the location between us.  It's always fun to search for a new photo location and Lafayette Reservoir is now one of my favorite place since Gavin's session.  Light was so pretty in early in the morning ;-)   Gavin is such a happy handsome boy and can you guess which one is mom's favorite image?  Mom loved the first image of Gavin sticking his tongue out and this is going up in their bedroom. I'm sure this picture will make them smile every morning!   I usually ask clients how they want to remember their children at this age, for Gavin, sticking his tongue out was his thing at 9 months old ;-)  So, I'm so happy that I was able to capture that!   Thank you for such a fun time and enjoy the pictures!!  I can't wait for next session together!     Mom's favorite! I LOVE this one!! How sweet is this with grandparents?
