Little One |Vacaville Newborn Photographer

It was a pleasure to have this sweet baby boy and his parents in my photography studio a couple of months ago. Little Roman was excited to come into the world and was born very early–at 28 weeks gestation. It’s always a little scary when a baby comes so soon before his due date. Roman had to spend a few months in the NICU where the doctors and nurses could look after him. They did an amazing job and released this happy and healthy baby boy from the hospital right before Halloween (he wasn’t even due until December!)

Lots of Love in a Tiny Package

When mom and dad brought Roman to my studio for his newborn photography session, it was still 5 weeks before his original due date. Although he had grown a lot since his birth (he was born at only 2.05 pounds and 14.35 inches) he was still so tiny! Roman’s claim to fame is that he is the smallest baby I have ever had in my photo studio. What a sweetheart!

I was so careful as I posed this delicate little guy for newborn pictures. He did a wonderful job for me and is such a handsome boy!

A Musical Flair

Roman’s daddy is musical, so we decided to include a little musical flair in this newborn photo shoot, using dad’s guitar. Everyone wants their photography session to be personal and unique. A great way to do that is to bring a special prop from home that reflects parents’ interests or hobbies.

Welcoming a baby into the world is such an exciting time, and I was grateful to be a small part of it in my role as newborn photographer. I loved meeting Roman and taking his baby pictures. Congratulations to mom and dad on their beautiful baby boy!

Lil’ Slugger’s Newborn Session | Vacaville Photographer

Benjamin’s parents are huge baseball fans and wanted to incorporate their favorite game into their son’s newborn session. Though we were adding some classic touches we still wanted to keep this session clean and modern. Benjamin was representing the New York Yankees in style!

The NY Yankee’s Youngest Fan

Today, mom and Benjamin were in the studio for his special newborn session! Throughout the shoot, Benjamin was calm and slept most of the time. His newborn session featured neutral tones with pops of color. I found the cutest handmade teddy bear at Britches and Bonnet. It was so precious how Benjamin snuggled up next to his teddy. Next, I placed Benjamin in a basket with some unique pieces. Mom brought their Yankee’s Baseball that went perfectly with the baseball theme. The chunky knit blankets were unique pieces that I crocheted. I wanted to keep with the teal and neutral color scheme so I decided to create my own props. Last, one of mom’s must-haves was a fun, starry background that worked wonderfully. It was the perfect modern touch to Benjamin’s Newborn Session.

Garden Maternity + Newborn Session | Vacaville Photography

With dad back from deployment and mom nearing her due date, now was the perfect time to shoot the Stacy’s Maternity Session. It’s hard to believe that this was the first maternity shoot for these parents. The Stacy’s were so comfortable and natural in front of the camera. Mom looked elegant in the maternity gown from Miss Madison Photo Props. You could see the pregnancy glow as she stood by the roses. The garden was an ideal setting to capture the love that waited for little Ava.

Ava Makes her Debut

Shorty after the Stacy’s maternity session, Ava decided to make her big debut! Her newborn session was spring inspired and involved all things pastel and floral. I found a frill pettiskirt at cutecute.co.uk — the perfect accessory for a little princess. Keeping with the floral theme, I placed Ava on a knit blanket and surrounded her with pink peonies and petals. She looked absolutely precious!

As our session came to a close the Stacy’s announced that they were moving to Hawaii. There is nothing quite like settling into a new routine and having to move again. Military life can be hard but it does have its perks. Sometimes they involve tropical paradise!

Nintendo Newborn Session | Vacaville Photographer

The old school Nintendo System sure does bring back memories. The Frugia Family are big time gamers and wanted to share their love for all things nerdy by incorporating their favorite games into their daughter’s newborn session.

Gamer in Training

This was probably the coolest way to introduce Baby Maesyn to an 80’s classic and show off this family’s fun personality! Maesyn’s session was moved up 3 weeks because she decided to make her debut a little earlier than expected. She didn’t seem to mind as I positioned her sleepy head on the game console.

I took several shots of Maesyn in her pastel onesies and floral bows. The colors and tones were inspired by her newly decorated nursery. Next, I took a few family shots as well as some with dad in uniform. I was very careful while I positioned Baby Maeysn in dad’s uniform pocket. I especially love this image because it gives you an idea of how small she was during the shoot! She was curled up so comfortably and completely unbothered by my direction and camera clicks. She was so relaxed and slept during most of her session. As I wrapped up, Maesyn ended our shoot with the biggest smile. This session couldn’t have been more perfect!

Wonderland Floral – Vacaville Newborn Session

Florals are all the rage right now. This Wonderland Floral newborn session was inspired by the classic Alice in Wonderland look and all things floral. Pair some flowers with warm colors and you’ve got the perfect coordinated session for this sweet little girl. Miss Korra brought her big brother and family with her to the session when she was only 12 days old.

About this Wonderland Floral Newborn Session

Miss Korra’s mom brought in a cute little newborn sized Alice inspired dress outfit she found on an Etsy shop. This wonderland floral inspired newborn session was styled to coordinate with her nursery and mom’s love of all things Alice in Wonderland. Do you suppose she’s a Wildflower?
