Framingham Newborn Photographer | Metrowest Photo Studio

What a sweet, sweet baby this little girl was to photograph in my Framingham photo studio. She gave us few smirks as she fell asleep and was so easy to photograph in those sleepy newborn poses. Her parents were wonderful to photograph as well, so relaxed throughout the session. I loved dad’s tattoos and took advantage of documenting them in dramatic studio lighting with his new baby girl. I could photograph new babies and their families all day long. Its just wonderful to have the opportunity to capture them this young, because as we know they change and grow so fast. Here are some favorites from their Framingham Newborn Studio Session.

Newborn Photographer MA | In Home Baby Sessions | Medway Photographer

Look at this beautiful teddy ” Bear” baby boy..he was just so adorable. His big sister who is just about 1.5 years old was so loving with him..kissing, hugging and holding his hands. I just love capturing moments like this for families. I have been photographing this growing family for a few years now and they are just so relaxed during all the sessions , which so is key to being able to creating these images for them. We had lots of fun trying on new hats that I have been buying for all these new babies I have been photographing..I think Bear has a future in modeling. :) Here are some favorites from their in home newborn and family session.

Here are some favorites for her combo outdoor and in studio session….

MA Portrait Studio | Children’s Photographer Boston | Mini Photo Sessions

Announcing Mini Theme Sessions… We’ve done these before but not for a few years. I don’t even think we had a blog the last time we had theme minis as I looked back in the archives

This is great for babies sitting on their own up to 6 year olds ( 6 months minimum age). Feel free to incorporate any of your own “attic” or personal props. Props will be geared for little boys and little girls changing them a bit to fit the child’s age. Paula will discuss clothing ideas that will work with the theme set once the session is booked.

Here is what was captured of Mr. Logan, 2.5 in about 20 minutes. Lots of fun and cute keepsakes of this little boy. Paula will be showing your images in color, black & white and even a few fun “antique” tone. To book your child’s mini session email Paula through her Contact page here. Please mention Paula’s Attic Minis when inquiring. These will be offered for a limited time.
