Sweet baby Casey did so well for her session. These 2021 and 2022 babies have been HARD to say the least but little Casey was a dream, literally. Mom and dad were so chill and easy to work with and allowed me to just do my thing and gave them time to relax.

I always try and give mom and dad some time to recharge and work with an assistant most of the time because having three tiny humans myself, it is so nice to just allow parents to have some time to not worry about caring for a tiny human for a couple hours. A time for them to just hang out and reconnect a little bit. Have conversations about things they need to discuss that doesn’t involve who’s turn it is to change the diaper or make a bottle.

When I tell you Casey was a DREAM to work with, I think we had her entire session knocked out in about 2 hours. I always prepare my parents to stay at least 2-3 hours in the event we have a lot of feeding breaks and settling with baby, but Casey was sooo good. We got through 2 blanket colors (4 poses), 4 wraps/props, parent poses AND an outfit at the end.

Newborn sessions are where my heart lies and even some of the fussiest babies make me love my job, but every once in a while when I get a really good dreamy, sleepy baby, it just makes this job even more enjoyable.
