Say hello to Mr. Liam!

I met Liam the day he was born and I've been photographing him ever since.

Seriously, look at that sweet face!

Now look at him, walking around like a little man!

Look, he even has his collar half-popped. Mr. Cool!

We had the most perfect light and weather for his photo session. 

His favorite song is "Snuggle Puppy". I always ask his mom to sing it to get him smiling. Look at all those smiles!

I used this same blanket setup for his six month photo session. He looks adorable in blue!

Liam had no idea what to think of his first birthday cake. He wanted to touch it and wipe it all over himself. But that first bite of actual cake. Man, serious soul-touching cake moment.

Mom knew she loved the idea of a simple background like a field at sunset. I knew just the location - it’s the perfect spot for summer portraits. Whether you’re a family of three or a large, extended family with three generations, it’s the perfect spot!

Baby Shepherd’s mom messaged me through my business Instagram to inquire about a six month baby milestone photo session in my studio. She loved my use of a lot of white and simple setups. She asked if we could also capture a photo with her older son as well. I was happy to be able to schedule her so we could begin planning her session together!Danae, his mama, had some really simple and timeless requests. She really wanted to show off her baby’s rolls, eyes, features and even his little tush! I talked with her about all the setups and options I have for baby milestone sessions in my studio.

The P family won a family session giveaway I held when I reached 1,000 likes on Facebook. I was so thrilled to tell them that they won - you see, this family has been through so much. Between cancer battles, adoptions and more - they were truly deserving of this family giveaway! Mom, Stephanie, loved the idea of a true, Summer session. Flowers, a creek, and cotton dresses. I knew just the location to take them in Grove City! Gantz Park has a beautiful garden full of flowers, ivy and herbs. They also have a very shallow creek that is easily accessed at the park itself. There is also a really fun, newly renovated playground for littles to enjoy after they do a great job during the photo session.

Baby Arowyn’s mom emailed me to schedule her second daughter’s newborn session. She loved my style of using a lot of whites and natural poses. I was able to schedule her on the calendar right away and we got to planning her session.

She had a lot of really lovely ideas and had a really timeless style. One of her ideas involved bringing a purple quilt made by a family member. She wanted to incorporate it somehow, so I told her to bring it along and I would design a setup using the blanket. It’s important to me that you LOVE your images, and if that means you bring along a sentimental heirloom-so be it! I don’t typically use purple but I truly believe in making my clients happy and I know this mama’s heart was so excited to see this quilt in her daughter’s portraits. You’ll see the image at the end of this blog post! Take a look!

Ethan’s mom contacted me to schedule her first child’s newborn session. She loved the idea of choosing someone who offered a natural approach to newborn photography. We scheduled her session with a tentative date. I always let clients know their date is tentative in case their due date changes. Which we all know happens quite often. If your due date changes by more than 4-5 days I usually alter the session date to make sure your baby is between 7-14 days old by their session.

Columbus Ohio Newborn Photography Studio | Baby Oliver’s Studio Session

Stephanie contacted me through my Facebook business page hoping to schedule a full newborn session in my Grove City newborn studio. Her baby boy was already born and hoped to snag a last minute opening. Although I do suggest you schedule your session before your baby is born, I try my hardest to schedule in last minute sessions. It makes things so much easier for you to schedule and plan your session before your baby is born so you can mark it off as done on your mental check list. You also don’t need to sit and research to find the best photographer after your baby is born and living on 3 hours of sleep.

Once Stephanie was all booked we started planning her session! She had a boy named Oliver with the most gorgeous head of hair. We discussed any of her requests to which she shared she wanted some nice family photos, a great sibling shot and timeless newborn photos of her baby boy. She was nervous that her oldest wouldn’t cooperate for photos. I let her know I would do my very best to make sure we captured some photos of them together. My sibling photos are pretty natural and very safe. I always keep a parent just off to the side, out of camera, to give a helping hand to the kiddos.
