Potomac newborn photographer | Beautiful baby girl studio newborn portraits

Ok, I have a confession to make…I have been very neglectful of this blog in the last two years.  It’s not that I don’t want to share my beautiful clients with you (I really do do that on a regular basis on Facebook and Instagram!), but I am generally just super busy with photographing my little clients and editing their images. . .and with life (having two teenagers means that I spend a loooooot of time chauffeuring ????)!    But I am going to do my best to try to carve out some time each week to share more of my sessions here because, seriously, couldn’t we all use a dose of adorableness?
The session I am sharing today is one of my favorites from the past year.  This gorgeous little girl was *such* a good sleeper —  I don’t remember her waking up at all during her session! — and she was very smiley as well, as you can see from the images below.  I was also super excited that this sweet girl’s mama loves autumn tones as much as I do, and I think there is no disputing that they look perfect on her!   Which color is your favorite for this cutie?

Auutumn-inspired newborn photos| Chevy Chase newborn photographer

I have had the pleasure of photographing so many gorgeous babies this Fall, including little Miss S. (I mean, seriously, look at her sweet little face and amazing hair!).  There were so many things that I *loved* about her session. . . I loved that this sweet girl was fairly alert during parts of her session, as it allowed me to capture some of her incredibly adorable expressions (be sure to scroll all the way to the bottom).  I loved that her parents appreciate autumn tones as much as I do, especially because I think that the burnt orange color — one of my favorites — was made for this cutie.  And, most of all,  I loved that it was evident from the moment I met her family that this little girl could not possibly be more loved.  (She will undoubtedly have her daddy wrapped around her little finger in no time at all. 😉 )

I truly couldn’t be happier for this lovely family!

I loved everything about this gorgeous 9-day-old sweet girl’s newborn session.  She was an amazing sleeper (though I did manage to catch a few photos of her with her eyes open), she flashed me some adorable smiles, and I couldn’t get over her amazing hair and cheeks!  It was also such a pleasure to spend a few hours chatting with her truly lovely parents.  It is sometimes hard for me to believe that my job consists of snuggling and photographing precious new babies and getting to know so many wonderful families!
I couldn’t be more thrilled for this new family of three, and I am so grateful that they chose me to help them capture their memories of those fleeting first weeks of their sweet girl’s life.
