Baby Will | Indianapolis Newborn Photographer

Sweet baby Will arrived a couple weeks early - I think he was ready to meet his energetic big sister Pensee whom was so sweet with him during his newborn session.  I think the sibling shots from his session are some of my favs.

Also, funny story - I often believe there is a six degrees (or less) of separation rule between my clients and myself, or even with other clients.  Once I get to know my clients they either know someone else I know or know other clients of mine. Come to find out Danny (dad) went to high school with my husband AND he worked with my mother in-law at a school in Avon. 

Anyway, Will was such a flexible little squish - curling up so perfectly in my wraps.  The day of our session was actually the first day he could be "free" because he had to be under a special light 24/7 since birth because of jaundice.  I know his mama just wanted to snuggle and hold him since that time had been minimal during his first week.  I'm so glad that was able to end for them and they could get him on a normal schedule. 

Thanks to the Gunn family for choosing me for their in-home newborn session!

Sweet Tristan | Indianapolis Newborn Photographer

He was prayed for and longed for, and finally for Tristan's parents he arrived on February 22nd.  Aisha was very open about her and Nicholas' struggle to get to this point, but I could tell that they could somewhat put all that behind them because they had a gorgeous baby boy to hold and to love.  Baby boy slept like a rock for his entire newborn session, only waking to eat once.  Thanks so much to Aisha and Nicholas for inviting me into their home to photograph this special time.

Welcome Henry | Indianapolis Newborn Photographer

Henry was one of the smallest babies I've photographed but there was nothing small about his personality.  He gave me several smirks, serious looks, some animated faces, and then the beloved potato sack smile (my first!!).  But most of all, he was so sweet.  A big thanks to Joe and Ellen for inviting me into their home to photograph their sweet boy.  They were cool and calm first-time parents and the lifestyle shots show how much they adore little Henry.

Baby Graham | Indianapolis Newborn Photographer

Graham has it all - the sweet baby cheeks, the long lashes and those dark grey eyes that stared at me for the first half hour of our session as he fought sleep.  But the joke is on him because I absolutely love when I can capture some eyes-wide-open shots and I'm pretty sure parents adore them as well.  Congrats to Kate and Ben on their beautiful addition.  They graciously invited me into their home to capture their new baby boy and it was a pleasure meeting them and creating these images to remember this sweet time.

Neev | Belly to Baby | Indianapolis Maternity and Newborn Photographer

Not many of my maternity/newborn clients take the surprise route.  Usually they find out whether the baby brewing in mom's belly is a boy or a girl.  The Patel's didn't know what they were having....which I think is so awesome (my hubs and I were surprised three times), so it was fun to wonder with them at their maternity session whether they would add another boy to their family or mix it up with a girl.  Well, surprise - it was another boy!  Three year old Tanush now has a new best friend in brother Neev.  My favorite pics from their newborn session were the sibling shots.  (:  I look forward to watching the Patel brothers grow this year!
