Emilia Melanie | 8 Days Old | Allison Park, PA Newborn Photographer
Isn't it great when everyone in a family portrait has such a great smile - including the newborn? Julia & Scott requested an in-home session, and I'm so excited we were able to capture this incredibly happy first family portrait in little Emilia's nursery!
“I loved seeing her so peaceful in these beautiful outfits.”
I was warned upon arrival that Emilia was a tough cookie when it came to lulling to sleep so I started the session with a wrapped pose. Even though she cried through the wrapping process, once she was all bundled, she settled right down and nodded off into that deep sleep, but not before capturing a couple of eyes-open images for Mom & Dad.
For posed newborn sessions in the client's home, I still do my best to include a prop pose. At our Planning Session, Julia & Scott shared one of my instagram images of a baby in this pose that they loved. I loved changing up the props and accessories to make a unique image for their session that was cohesive with the rest of their gallery.
