It’s always a pleasure photographing families in the winter.  Refreshed and recovered from the busy fall and holiday portrait season, my creative juices are ready to flow again.  I was super excited to meet this Bedford NH family as they welcomed their third addition home.  I knew right from reading their newborn client questionnaire that we were going to be a great fit.  Erin’s goal was a simple one.  She wanted me to capture the joy a new baby brings to a family — especially since her two older children were so excited.  She also expressed her desire to be included in some photos because she is so rarely in them.  Can you relate?  I know I can.  This is why I encourage all new parents to participate in their lifestyle newborn sessions.  I cannot over-stress the importance. When I photograph newborns, I know I have a responsibility greater than making pretty pictures; I am creating family heirlooms.   These images are for your children (and their children!) as much as they are for you.  Think back to the photos you treasure from your own childhood.  Are you parents present in them? I’m pretty willing to bet that when you look at them you aren’t drawn to the baby weight they had yet to loose or the bags under their eyes from lack of sleep (neither which Erin had, by the way, but these are concerns I hear a lot!).  What draws you to a treasured photograph is emotion and connection.

We captured so much emotion and connection at this session that it was practically impossible to narrow the images down.  Here is a glimpse…

Wyatt only opened his eyes for a split second, but when he did he had the clearest blue eyes I have ever seen on a newborn.
