Newborn Studio Photographer | Boston Newborn Photography | Premie Session

This little 5 week old baby would of be a few days old if he had arrived on his due date. He surprised his family by coming 5 weeks early. I just loved the ideas this family had for their session. They brought some of their culture into the session, beads and fabric from Togo and a Japanese screen..they just offered such a wonderful touch to their son’s portraits. His grandparents were even here from Togo to join in for some portraits. Babies grow so fast so it was great they were able to be part of his first photo shoot. Here are some favorites from their Boston Studio Newborn session…

In Home Newborn Photography | Worcester Photographer | Newborn Photographer MA

This little girl was so sweet and I just love her wide-eyed expressions. It was so nice to meet that little baby that was growing in her mommy’s tummy for their in home newborn session. Here is a link to their in studio maternity session Even big sister joined in for some portraits. I love including all members of the family in my sessions. We used a natural setting in their home using my portable studio lighting and perfect natural light coming in from their windows. Mom and dad were so laid back during the session, which I know can be hard when you are sleep deprived. Here are some favorites from their in home newborn session…

Boston Newborn Photographer | Framingham Studio| Little Mohawk & Angels

Who can’t resist a little boy in a mohawk and then add some angel wings? Absolutely loved that mom wanted to do a little ‘hawk on her 4 week old son…and he wore it so well. She also brought in angel wings for her newborn son and 5 year old daughter to wear for their photo session. So sweet and I loved the tender moments the two siblings shared ( with a little coaxing from mom, grandmom and dad) during the shoot. Though it didn’t take much for big sister to hug and kiss her little brother. The dramatic lighting on the black backdrop added a very special touch to their family portraits as well. Another great newborn and family session in my Framingham studio. Here are some favorites …

Newborn Photographer Boston | Smiley New Baby | Boston Newborn Photographer

The baby boom continues at Paula Swift Photography…not sure what happened 9-10 months ago, but the Boston area is booming with new babies. I have been blessed to have the opportunity to photograph many new babies this spring and early summer. This little girl was one of the smiliest ones I have photographed yet. So adorable and with every deep breath of sleep she would smile. Love it!!! Mom brought some of her cute hats in that went perfectly with their session. Here are some favorites from their studio newborn photography session. Remember if you are looking for those sleepy newborn poses its best to book while you are pregnant so your precious new baby can be photographed under 2 weeks of age. The older they are the harder they are to photograph asleep.

This is what PPA and its members consider “the best of the best”. “The Journey”  was selected into the General Collection where it will be on display at the annual convention next January in Texas. Both of these prints won big in 2009 at our state PPAM convention and then were awarded seals at the regional level PPANE last fall. So I entered them at the big International Competition and was so surprised one of them went Loan!  Did I mention this was my first time entering PPA’s competition???  Thank you for letting me share this amazing news with you.

Boston Newborn Photographer | Outdoor Newborn Session | Belmont Baby Photographer

Another one of my little friends became a big sister. I know my posts are getting pretty similar now with all these new babies and big sisters and brothers I have been photographing. There must of been something in the Boston water 9 months ago. :) I photographed this little girl a few times for her mother’s unique and fun children’s clothing company called My Little Pakora . She has just the sweetest personality and I was so proud to see her become a big sister. It was a very warm day out so I was able to take advantage of that and their beautiful backyard and their precious 11 day old baby girl was just perfect. I just love new babies outdoors…the ivy they had was a perfect backdrop! I also set my portable newborn studio in their living room so when their new baby girl was ready, we took some indoor studio shots too. Here are many favorites from their Boston Outdoor Newborn and In Home Session …
