Valentine’s Day newborn portraits | Bethesda photographer

Although most of my newborn portrait sessions take place within the first 2.5 weeks after the baby is born, I have photographed many, many “older” newborns, including this sweet girl, who was just about 5 weeks old at the time of her session.   As you can see, she was still a petite little girl at 5 weeks! She slept through most of her session, but we also captured some adorable awake images as well.  (Her wakeful expressions were simply adorable, especially her sweet little smile in the third image below!)

We used a variety of different colors for her portraits, but her mom specifically requested that we use some pinks and incorporate some hearts into her session, to reflect the fact that she was born on Valentine’s Day. ❤  I am a total sucker for holiday-themed images, so you can imagine my excitement about this request!  (Be sure to scroll to the end to see some of the Valentine’s portraits.)

    Did you know that all of my portrait sessions include a design appointment, at which we can view *your* images on *your* wall spaces and design heirloom albums and other keepsakes, all customized to your specific tastes and needs? 

I am passionate about helping clients *print* and enjoy their beautiful images so that they aren’t just living on their phones and computers!

    Those first few weeks with a newborn baby are one of the most extraordinary and fleeting seasons of your life.  In a matter of just a few weeks, tiny features begin to change, little toes and fingers uncurl, sleepy snuggles give way to longer periods of alertness, and the little one you longed to meet begins growing rapidly before your eyes. 
This chapter passes so quickly that many of these precious details fade from memory. Newborn photography helps to preserve those memories, however…long after your baby has outgrown your arms, these images will bring you back to the awe, love, and joy at the beginning of your family’s story. ❤️

    For the last decade, I have been almost exclusively photographing newborns and babies. Over the last year, however, I have reintroduced various types of portrait sessions, including children, family, and pet sessions. 
Among these “new” portrait offerings is one that has quickly become one of my favorites: fine art children’s portraits. These portraits are thoughtfully crafted images that are designed to capture the beauty and emotion of childhood in a timeless way. These sessions importantly allow your kids the opportunity to dress up and feel special, encouraging confidence and allowing their unique personalities to shine.  The ultimate result is heirloom-quality artwork for your home that preserves a season of your child’s life. 🤍

    Did you know that I offer *both* posed *and* lifestyle (as well as hybrid) newborn portrait sessions at my Washington D.C. area studio? 

Those first days with your new baby are filled with fleeting moments you'll never want to forget, and there are beautiful ways to preserve them through newborn photography. Lifestyle newborn sessions focus on capturing natural moments with your family in a relaxed environment, highlighting authentic connections, cuddles, and the beauty of everyday life with your new baby. Posed newborn sessions are more carefully styled, with your baby gently and safely guided into timeless poses that highlight every precious little detail, creating beautiful heirloom portraits you'll treasure for years to come. As a photographer experienced in both styles, I love offering families the freedom to choose the experience that feels most like them (or even the best of both worlds - a hybrid session!). Whether you envision heartfelt, documentary-style images or beautifully crafted portraits, my goal is to create photographs that not only document how your baby looked, but preserve your memories of this extraordinary season of your life.
