Day in the Life sessions are like no other session. They aren't like my regular lifestyle portrait sessions, they are pure family photojournalism. These are the images that scream nostalgia. These are the images you will look back on and your eyes will fill with tears because they will be so personal to you. They will really mean something. The little humans in your life change so rapidly, so your routines change too. But I will be there to document it all so you will have the memories forever. Early morning bed cuddles, breakfast, maybe a walk to the library or park, or perhaps you need to grocery shop, or do laundry, and maybe you want to pop in to visit the grandparents before heading home to get dinner ready. And then of course we have bath time, and books before cuddling in to bed. Whatever your daily life includes, I will follow you documenting it all.
I know a whole day with me sounds insane, but it will be the best day ever!! I promise! When I show up to your home I certainly won't be looking pretty. I come dressed comfortably, ready to get on the floor with the kids or the dog, ready to lay in the grass to grab the right shot, ready to get paint or baby food on me, and ready to capture your family just as they are, in your every day. These sessions include a whole bunch of pictures along with a super sweet family film.

The most successful time to do newborn sessions with props and posing is when baby is 5 to 12 days old. But sometimes people are unable to do a session so soon after birth, or sometimes you don't think about it until after baby arrives. And that's totally fine! This was a sweet Christmas gift to these new parents. They contacted me and a couple days later we did the session. Avery was 3 weeks old. And even though by this age they are less sleepy and less curled up from being so fresh from the womb, there is still so much newness to capture. They are so teeny tiny for a short time, they grow and change really fast! So even if it's technically past the 5 to 12 days, your baby will never be teenier or tinier then they are right now.
And just a side note, the bears in the picture below are Avery's parents childhood bears. Adorable!
