Baby Zeke stars in a newborn mini photo session with Andrea Sollenberger Photography, Gainesville FL Newborn Photographer. My studio is designed specifically with a maternity session and newborn session in mind. I love to pamper moms, dads, babies, and families in the Gainesville Florida area. My goal is to give my clients beautiful photographs of their most meaningful times so that they will cherish these memories forever. A newborn baby is one of life’s monumental joys and is worth capturing with beautiful professional newborn photography!
GAINESVILLE NEWBORN – ZEKE!
Zeke’s dad was the parent who first contacted me about newborn photos. Janice and Gus knew they wanted to celebrate their baby boy with photos from his earliest days, and Gus took charge. Researching professional newborn photographers near you in the second trimester is recommended. You will need time to check out their website newborn gallery, read the reviews to see what clients are saying about them, visit their studio to meet one another and see the studio offernings, and select your baby’s professional newborn photographer carefully. Planning in advance will also avoid scheduling disappointment as the newborn photo session schedule does fill up! With the research done and our plan in place, Janice and Gus used all of the newborn tips I sent to them to prepare them for a successful newborn session. And Zeke charmed us with his blissful sleep! Meet Ezekiel, Zeke for short!
NEWBORN MINI PHOTO SESSION GAINESVILLE FL
At Andrea Sollenberger Photography a Newborn Mini Photo Session is available for just baby. This is a session including newborn wraps and newborn props, all provided at the studio. Or, with an upgrade, there is a Newborn Mini Plus Photo Session that adds portraits with mom, dad and a first family portrait. Newborn mini photo sessions are perfect for those on a tight budget who still want professional newborn photography but cannot afford our full newborn gallery and products. Add on images to mini sessions are available for purchase if parents want to add just a few more newborn images or another newborn prop. These studio newborn mini photo sessions are of the same photographic quality and editing, and with the same variety of newborn studio props as Full Newborn Sessions. The difference is that mini sessions are 1 hour, include limited poses, and baby is swaddled in wraps. Full Newborn Sessions are generally 3 hours, provide larger gallery of 25 images, and include wrapped newborn posed in props as well as simply naked newborn poses. An ordering appointment is also included in full newborn photo sessions for the big reveal and for purchasing of products and digital images.
PARENTS IN NEWBORN PHOTOS
Gus and Janice decided to upgrade their Gainesville FL newborn mini photo session to a newborn mini plus photo session. They wanted to be photographed with Zeke as well and this upgrade includes newborn parent photos. Whether for full newborn photo sessions or for newborn mini photo sessions, it is important to style photos so that the images match client color preferences and home decor. This way, newborn photography fits right into parents’ homes. Gus and Janice chose hues of blue, grey and white, with textures of wood and fur.
To start the session, we have a very smiling mom and dad cuddling their precious new baby boy. Janice and Gus share a delighted glance at their brand new baby boy. This is their first official family hug! Dad adds drama with a kiss on mom’s cheek to document his gratitude for her hard work and devotion.
I love the look on Janice’s face as she cuddles her little newborn with affection, remembering the very first time she held Zeke in her arms!
And can’t you see how pleased dad is as he holds his first born boy on his shoulder. The emotions parents have toward their newborns are indeed powerful!
As this proud daddy holds his naked newborn before him, they gaze at each other. I love that Zeke’s eyes are open. I believe he is listening to his father’s voice!
Our newborn photos with props for this Gainesville FL newborn mini plus photo session began with a white wooden baby bed. Baby Zeke poses on this bed swaddled in blue with a striking striped sleepy hat. He cups his baby cheek with his tiny newborn hands! Those little baby hands curled around his chunky cheeks so close to his face remind me how newborns love to be cuddled. Zeke is sound asleep and seems not to notice he was posing for a newborn photo session!
Just as darling but photographed from a side view, Zeke sleeps on. The soft light shows off his beautiful baby details in this newborn close up.
The next prop we styled especially for mom. Janice loves pale blue and white combined together, to remind her of gentle clouds against a clear blue sky. Zeke sleeps in a white swaddle with a lot of his body exposed to showcase his beautiful baby soft skin. His tiny newborn hands cup his face and he lounges in this bed of white fur against a backdrop of pale blue. Zeke’s beautiful baby face is toward us so we can see his handsome facial features really well. This photo of Zeke taken with just the right amount of back light makes his beautiful baby soft skin shine and shows off his newborn baby details! His baby hands make mom gasp and his feet are crossed so sweetly! He was a great little poser!
Then Zeke sits like a potato sack swaddled. He is swaddled in a navy knit blanket in a fur stuffed metal egg basket. His little hands folded below his chin show how sound asleep and posable he is. His matching bonnet is the finishing touch to accent his handsome baby face.
All of these beautiful baby details will soon change and begin to take on the look of a boy, but for now Zeke is just a beautiful brand new baby. What a treasure to catch a time which is going to go so quickly. Once it is past, photos will bring this time back into memory for his Janice and Gus.
Andrea Sollenberger Photography has an extensive newborn prop collection and a studio newborn wardrobe available for each session. If you’re looking for some newborn props, colors or newborn posing ideas then check out another little newborn session here.
