Toledo Ohio Newborn Photography session

I just loved this sweet newborn baby girls maternity session with her mama and daddy! In case you missed it, you can view those photos HERE. Miss Isla is the perfect mix of both of her parents! I’m secretly hoping she ends up with mama’s gorgeous red hair

She decided she didn’t really feel like sleeping for part of her newborn session, so I just rolled with it! These awake shots are actually super difficult to get but she nailed it! I love her sweet wide eyed expression so much.

Isla was born near Christmas time so we definitely wanted to incorporate that for holiday cards. I love throwing in themed setups like this!

Newborn sessions are held in my Sylvania Ohio home studio when baby is between 5-21 days old. This is when they are in that sleepy, curled up, milk drunk phase…it goes by so fast! In order to ensure a spot in my schedule, I recommend booking your newborn session while still in the 2nd trimester. Since the actual arrival of your baby is usually unpredictable, I will hold space on my calendar for around the time of your due date. Once your baby is born, we will then set a date/time for the session to take place.

Upon booking, you will be sent a Prep Guide that is filled with everything you need to know to prepare for your session; such as what to expect, what to wear, what to bring, the studio address, and more! You will also be sent a questionnaire so I can get to know your likes, dislikes, what you hope to get out of your session, etc - I love styling each session to your personal preferences! If you aren’t really sure what you want, I am more than happy to take complete creative control!

When you arrive to your newborn session, I will have all of the setups, props & accessories set and ready to go (keeping all of your preferences in mind!). I will go through each setup/prop with you to make sure you are in love with everything - if there’s anything you want to swap out or change, that is totally fine!

If we are doing family photos, we will start with those first. Then baby is the star of the show for the rest of the session! I typically begin with all prop poses in my buckets, bowls, beds, etc. Then I will move onto all of the super sweet wrapped & unwrapped poses on the fabric backdrops. You can expect to be at the studio for about 2-3 hours for a full newborn session. I am never in rush and always make sure to follow the cues of your baby. It takes a lot of patience to get that perfect shot!
