The beautiful Akerele family came for their maternity session last month in anticipation of their newest family member! We did a few outfit changes and Tolulope was stunning in each and every outfit. We also did some graduation photos for Anthony’s PhD, which we joked was like another baby! I think my favourite images are the family ones though because you can tell how excited Zion is to be a big brother! I can’t wait to photograph their new addition. Congratulations Akerele family!

Last month Maverick came to visit me for a newborn photography session at 3 weeks old. He was so sweet and his Mom and Dad were obviously SO smitten! We stuck mostly to neutrals and whites, which really left the focus on Maverick and his beautiful Mom and Dad. We did a mixture of wrapped prop poses and a few posed photos on fabric backdrops, and I think they turned out so sweet! Welcome to the world, gorgeous baby boy!

I can’t believe that Ivy is ONE already! This year seemed to fly! I photographed Ivy’s newborn photos last year and I can’t believe how fast time has gone! Ivy came by for first birthday portraits in her very stylish Hadley Rose Designs romper and headband in purple. She was super smiley and hammed it up for the camera! :) We did some family photos with her gorgeous Mom and Dad! What a lovely family. Thanks guys for coming back to me again with precious Ivy. Happy Birthday sweetheart!

Chloe came by for her first birthday portraits and cake smash session the other day! Boy did she have a lot to say and we had a lot of fun! We did some portraits and then brought out her cake! She was delighted with it, and dug in! There were sprinkles everywhere! Once she was done with her cake she had a little dip in the tub and made quite a splash :) Happy birthday sweet girl!

Emily came for her newborn photography swaddle session. We did a bunch of different wrapped set ups! We used a gorgeous white flokati rug from Luneberry, a lovely tiny bed from DIH-Photography Props, and a ton of sweep accessories like bows, wraps and layers. We then had her big brother come for a couple of sibling shots, with a very special momento included in those images. Big brother also wanted a photo with his panda, so we happily obliged :) It’s so fun to capture their sweet preferences at every stage of life!

Reese came to visit me for her newborn baby and family photography session a little while ago, and was she ever an angel! We got through a tonne of different poses and then the family poses as well. We used a neutral beige, a purple and a lovely pink backdrop set from Freebird Prop Shoppe. Mom and Dad also made a special request for the bunny set from AGK Originals, and we did another couple of set ups using a lovely little bed prop, a heart prop and an antique quilt. Then we did the family poses on a charcoal backdrop and I think it really pops.

Meet baby Ivy!

She was an absolute doll for her newborn baby photography session, and slept the entire time. We did her posed images on a lovely new deep purple backdrop, with a tie back from Dear Felicity, and a lovely light pink backdrop with a sweet little bow. Then we did her wrapped poses on a dark wood floor drop with a bowl, a heart prop and a sweet little bed! Ivy’s Mommy and Daddy picked out the cutest deer set from my collection from AGK Originals which suited her perfectly.

Then we did the newborn family photos on a deep charcoal background. Aren’t they just the sweetest new family of three?
