So many of our past wedding clients are becoming parents and I am so thrilled for them! Photographing the entire family as they add new tiny feet is so special to me and one of my favorite things to photograph.

My clients bought a home and were expecting their first baby all in the middle of COVID. Either one of those things is a lot, right?!? Going from a small LA apartment to a multi-room home and also going from party of 2 to 3, PLUS adding a worldwide pandemic to it is a lot to handle!

Grandparents Coming to Help!

Luckily, our clients parents drove out from Kentucky, prior to her due date, to help them get set-up and as prepared as possible. I am finding with our newborn sessions so many grandparents are doing this; taking a trip or a few weeks to help the new parents get settled in. The great thing is it’s allowing us to capture grandparents and newborns together! And, I have to say I am loving it! I personally would love a portrait with my grandparents and myself as a baby! Especially those detailed ones of snuggles or handling those tiny baby feet or hands. It melts my heart!

I have added a quick little segment to our lifestyle newborn sessions to include grandparents and it’s created some beautiful stories for these babies. Like this one of mom, grandma and baby!

Are you having a baby soon or know someone who is? I’d love to chat with you about getting a session on the books, either for yourself or as a gift! It’s the perfect baby shower present! Inquire here to chat!
