Miracle of Life : Baby Lauren's Newborn Session
A few weeks back, a new mom from town called us to fotograph her newborn daughter Lauren. As you might know, I love to fotograph newborns.....they are such bundles of joy! Even better is to be given the honor of fotographing a baby at several stages through it's first year of life. Carolyn and Michael (Lauren's mommy and daddy) decided to enroll in one of our "Miracle of Life" baby fotography plans, and we are so excited to be able to capture their little "miracle" Lauren as she grows.
Meet adorable Baby Lauren :

Baby toshies are so cute! Look....she's already trying to crawl!

I love the special bonding connection between mother & child during nursing.



In the nursery with her parents Carolyn and Michael. They are such a wonderful couple....
and I can tell that they are going to be wonderful, loving parents to little Lauren.

This is one of my absolute favorites from our session. I love the contrast of size between the baby fingers and the mommy & daddy fingers.
And the symbolism of the wedding rings in combination with the gentle touch of all the hands.

Baby toes are the best!

Daddy's nuzzling is the best too!

When I found out that Carolyn still has her cherished Cabbage Patch Kids, loving decorating her daughter's nursery, I just had to fotograph Lauren amongst them.
I love how they are exactly the same size. In fact, we almost used the little bloomers from one of the Kids on Lauren!

Baby Lauren being cuddled by mom + dad, as they coax her to fall asleep.

LOVE the expression on Mommy Carolyn's face as she looks lovingly at her husband, and he smiling back at his wife. How cute are they!

Nuggle-time....


Lauren fell into a deep sleep and Daddy Michael decided to pick her up to place in on the bed for some fotographs of her by herself.
Look how she fits perfectly in his loving hands....a perfect little bundle!

Daddy kisses......my favorite part is the way she is holding onto his wedding ring finger!

Nap time is my favorite time to fotograph newborns. So sweet!

How comfy does she look sleeping on this pillow?

Can't get enough of sleeping babies......they are so very precious!

We carefully moved her into her nursery. How colorful is the bedding on her crib? I LOVED the polka dots and stripes combination!
And the pink & green colors....so pretty and juicy....just like a watermelon!

Look at her little lips...she is so relaxed!


Another favorite....through the crib bars.

I couldn't resist placing the butterfly wings that one of the grandmas had got her on her little back for a couple shots.
How sweet is it that all of Lauren's stuffed animal friends are watching over her?

One of Carolyn's friends stopped by to visit and brought Lauren some pink roses. So, of course I had to get a couple shots of her with a rose.

I love how the rose head is almost the size of her little face.

As part of all of our baby plans, we include 25 custom Fine Art Birth Annoucements for the new parents to send out to their loved ones. Here is our latest design option...we are calling this look our "Classic Fine Art Black + White Design." Here is Baby Lauren's custom folded card....

Here is another new design option for parents looking for something a little more playful and colorful. This is a sample of our "Whimiscal Design."
Lauren's parents loved this option too, but opted for the previous design.
