There is something special about having a professional photographer capture your newborn baby in your home.  Here are just a few images taken in their home.

These are only a few of the images taken during the in home photography session in Atlanta Georgia.  Photography of newborns are something very special and capturing them in your home makes them only that more special.

 So, I’m not sure what I started here but the kids sure had a great time painting mommies belly while I was doing the photography for her maternity session.  The mom didn’t know what she was having as the baby so she decided to go with the pink and green colors.  I think these are not only adorable maternity pictures, but something they will always remember and laugh about.

How fun was this photography session for bellies, pregnancy maternity.  Call it what you will, but  these kids had a blast and these images will be great reminder of how fun her pregnancy was.  What a pleasure it is to work do the photography for two children and mommie who is expecting her new baby.

Ok, I will have to say that photographing babies at this age 10 months can be difficult at some times.  Not only did we have to content with potential bad weather we had to hope that she did experience the separation anxiety and the session taking 3 hours;o)  She did awesome and never missed a smile.  She did so well I think we did the entire photography session in about 30 minutes.  At this age and up I like to keep things simple with great lighting and bring out the personality of the child.

I’ve found in my 8 plus years in photographing infants, babies and children you are on their time schedule.  Nothing I love better is when a mother brings a baby or child in for photography and they say oh this is going to be a tough one or she is very shy and I’m not sure how its going to go?  That is the reason I love to photograph children.  Although they think they are scared or shy or introverted…they all react to simple nurturing.  I’ve maybe had to reschedule less than 6 sessions in the time I’ve been photographing children and most of those times the child was either sick or just having a bad day;o(  I love children and love to photograph them.  I sometimes think I get as much joy photographing their child as the parents do.  Not only are adults put on this earth to help each other so are these little ones.  And their is no better compliment than to hear a parent say that sure is my child in those photographs.
