I had no idea when Christine won the newborn session giveaway that we would become fast friends and I would completely fall in love with her little family. We clicked instantly and tentatively scheduled a date for their session. On the morning of February 15th I got a note that Baby Holly had been born on Valentines Day weighing in at 9lbs 7oz! After spending a week in the NICU, the family of four was finally all under one roof. I finally got to meet Holly (and her amazing big sister, Ruby, who pretty much stole the show!) on March the 4th. Holly was now 18 days old and settled into life at home.

One question I’m always asked is “how old is too old for a newborn session?” The beauty of lifestyle newborn sessions is that we can photograph the session as soon as they’re home or wait until they’re a few weeks or even months old!

This family was so much fun to be around and to photograph. Ruby was an absolute ham, wanting to check the back of my camera after almost every photograph! I let her “assist” me with one photograph, allowing her to look through the viewfinder and hit the shutter button. She did great and is a real photographer in the making!

Baby Holly was cool as a cucumber the whole session and I couldn’t get enough of her squishy cheek and incredible hair!

Enjoy some of the highlights from this sweet session in their home.
