Reese and family came to see me at my Nashville studio on Sunday for his newborn session. He surprised everyone by coming three weeks early, which meant a nice, sleepy baby for me! Babies who are born early almost always are better sleepers for shoots than those who “cooked” a little longer. We got a really fun variety of poses, including a couple different props.
I used some different prop and fabric/wrap combinations at Reese’s shoot that I haven’t tried before, and I love how they turned out! My favorite posing backdrop became the stuffer for the metal basket, for example. The dark gray plus the light blue wrap is a really dreamy combination. I always try to make sure families end up with some images that are very neutral (and then easy to hang anywhere in the house) and some that have a little more color/interest.
