Anabella, 2.5 Weeks – Sarasota Newborn Photography

Posted in Newborns, Sarasota area, tagged , , , on December 12, 2009| 2 Comments »

After little Vivian’s session, I met Anabella (and her mom Monica, dad Andrea, and handsome brother Dylan, but this one was just for Anabella). Anabella was sound asleep when I got there and was not pleased by the moving and changing we did to get her photo-ready. After a meal, she was much happier and fell right asleep for pretty much the entire session.

Here are some of her photos:

Dreaming of Christmas.

Sporting her adorable monogrammed bloomers.

The cutest package.

I love the contrast in textures of the iron bench and straw basket against the soft blanket and baby skin.

So peaceful. And she looks just like her brother in this one.

Vivian, 2.5 Weeks – Sarasota Newborn Photography

Posted in Children, Families, Newborns, Sarasota area, tagged , , , , , on December 10, 2009| Leave a Comment »

My previous post highlighted the adorable knitted works of OrganicMama’s Shop using photos from little Vivian and Anabella’s sessions, but I think each of the girls deserves her own little post.

Vivian and Anabella’s mothers are two friends who each delivered their baby girls on the same day, and I had the pleasure of meeting them both two and a half weeks later! I met Vivian first, and her awesome mom Kasey and big sister Charlie.

Here are a few from Vivian’s session. Anabella’s to come shortly. (BTW, how gorgeous are their names?!)

Vivian

Basket o' Vivian.

Looks like she's on a very important phone call.

I can't believe how alert she was, little ham. Look at her fighting sleep and staring right into the camera.

Vivian & Charlie

Vivian gets some love from her big sister (who's quite the model herself).

Charlie

Although Kasey warned Charlie about her unruly hair not being photo-ready, Charlie was ready with an adorable grin the second I turned the lens on her. Can't wait to have a Charlie session and capture her awesome ensembles and poses.

Greta

I just had to include a shot of the beautiful Greta, their one-year-old Golden and possibly the most well-behaved puppy I've seen (and a Golden, no less!). So, so sweet.

And one last shot of Vivian looking super scrumptious and finally about ready for a nap.

Etsy – Organic Mama’s Hats and Cocoons

Posted in Newborns, Products, Sarasota area, tagged , , , , , on December 9, 2009| 1 Comment »

I recently met Shannon, i.e. “OrganicMama,” on Etsy, and she creates these wonderful hand-knit hats (with ears!) and cocoons for little ones. I have been looking for some simple props to include in my newborn shoots – they’re often asleep for the whole time and of course can’t do many “poses,” so props, environments, backdrops, etc. really help stage an adorable newborn photo.

This past Sunday, I photographed two 2.5-week old munchkin girls, Vivian and Anabella, both born on the same day to moms that are friends – crazy coincidence! They were past the cocoon stage – which is within 10 days or so of birth, as they need to be teensy weensy and scrunched up; these girls have matured and can straighten their mini legs. However, we got some adorable photos using Shannon’s hats. I absolutely love the yarn she uses; I’m normally not a fan of traditional baby pink and baby blue, but the marbled colors in her products are understated and really sweet. And of course, they are so, so soft.

Here are a few of my favorite photos featuring Shannon’s beautiful hats.
