Fun Outdoor Summer Watermelon Birthday Session in Houston TX

Happy birthday to cutie pie Collyns! Her outdoor & natural Light Children's Session features an adorable watermelon smash in Houston Texas.

Greetings, folks! Howdy to you! Welcome to my blog. If this is your first time visiting, you're in for a treat since I'm showing you a super adorable toddler today; however, if you've been here before you may notice I mostly feature newborn sessions. Nonetheless, many of these sweet babies happen to be baby plan clients, too, so at some point they do turn one or hit another milestone, such as 6 months, so here and there you'll see a post showing little ones, too.

Happy birthday to one of my long time clients! I first met this beautiful baby girl at her newborn session and it's already been a year! Her mama contacted me for one year portraits in a natural, outdoor setting. Since C's favorite food is watermelon, what better way to celebrate the big O-N-E than a sunrise session featuring vintage inspired images showing a precious baby eating watermelon, huh? Ha! 

Here are a few of my favorites from her watermelon themed first birthday shoot!

When we arrived, there was plenty of Texas heat and humudity to go around, but baby girl was all smiles. Such a pretty little love - her pink headband is too cute on her! We used a rocking horse from her nursery, too. The quilt is mine, but it is fun when clients bring special heirloom pieces from home. They add a special touch to your session. 

After the rocking horse, we did a variety of sets up from the actual watermelon smash in my antique cream high chair to a bubble bath where baby can splash and play. After these, we let her have fun and sit on a quilt just enjoying her yummy fruit.

Thanks for stopping by! I look forward to showing more sessions later this week. Have a great Tuesday, friends. Wishing you all my joy today.

Warmly,

Sarah

Fresh, Gorgeous Neutral Baby Boy Session | Meet Jakob

Baby Photographer, Sarah Borchgrevink, serves the Greater Houston Area including The Woodlands, Spring, Conroe and Magnolia Texas. Welcome Baby Boy Jakob - 7 days fresh and new.

Greetings, friends! Happy Tuesday to you! I hope you're having an awesome day and up to something fun with your family. Today I am at my desk working on business tasks, but I am also excited because a sweet baby girl is coming to my studio in a few hours. For now, however, I'm going to show off this absolutely precious little boy who visited recently. His name is Jakob. At 7 days old, he visited my all white, organic Houston Newborn Photography studio and slept wonderfully for me. He weighed around 7 pounds and loved the cozy wrapping. Here are some of my favorite images of his session.

Jakob's parents were sweet as can be. They chose to not do family images and focus on baby. They selected me petite collection, which offers a wonderful array of images from super cute wrapped portraits, floor props, naked bean bag posing and of course the fantastic macro images that truly capture the unique aspects of your new baby.

Mom relayed she really is a fan of neutrals, however, is not opposed to perhaps a bit of color such as navy blue. They came from The Woodlands, which is just north of Houston, and I made sure their entire session was set up so we could begin on time. 

During their baby session, the little ones love to be wrapped! Parents always marvel at how easily they fall asleep. Moreover, this keeps baby sleep so we can utilize many props and set ups. For example, this enables me to use two floors props. Examples of floor prop choices are buckets, bowls, baskets, crates, boxes, all of which are antique and vintage inspired to reflect my personal tastes. I must note: always research your newborn photographer's portfolio to ensure you're a good fit. :-) I do a lot of color but am not opposed to a neutral session here and there, such as this one. 

Baby Boy has gorgeous skin! He is simply glowing and is the picture of health. His full head of hair, cup lips, button nose, chubby cheeks and sweet smile simply made my heart soar. He also was very curly and fun to pose; I truly like for baby to look as timeless and simple as possible. While newborn photography truly is a custom art, it should look effortless in the final images, despite it being anything but easy. I am formally trained and have taken many workshops on safety, lighting, posing, flow, wrapping and post processing of your images. This is why I take your investment very seriously.

Ahhhh! That sweet, sleepy yawn! These are always favorites of mine since images such as this truly show off the baby and their personality. 

The rest of this handsome fellow's petite posed newborn collection featured naked posing. Here are my favorite images. :-) I hope you enjoy!

One Week Old Baby Girl | Pink & Spring Inspired Fresh Floral Session

Fresh, Pure and Gorgeous Newborn Photography in the Greater Houston Area | Welcome Baby Girl

Howdy! Happy Monday to you! I've just finished up a super adorable studio session, so I am at my desk working on edits, contracts, e-mails and of course a blog post showcasing one of the sweetest little ladies I've had in front of my camera! So, if this your first time here you should know my name is Sarah and I'm located in beautiful Houston TX. Yes: that's right - Texas can be pretty in it's own way, haha! My studio is located specifically in the NW area. This is where I photograph all things newborn and it makes my soul sing! Working with my most petite clients is an absolute joy! 

For today's session, I featuring a few of my favorite images from Baby L's full newborn session. Full newborn sessions are a great option for parents who are seeking a little bit of everything from classic and vintage inspired floor props, stunning wrapping of your little cherub, up close macro details of their precious features, and of course sweet, organic and curly posing of them as they're adorned in adorable bonnets and tieback headbands. 

Precious baby L came for a posed newborn session when she was 9 days new and about 6 pounds. 

While I normally use a lot of jewel tones or perhaps richer, vibrant colors, this sweet mama truly wanted a soft, feminine and dainty portrait session reflecting muted pastel tones and even some amazing fresh florals! I have to admit: there's something novel in the idea of a new baby wearing fresh flowers as an adorable crown. I pulled inspiration from my many props and decided on rose pink, cream, ivory, mint, sea foam and antique floor props, seen above.

Being held in Dad's arms is ever so cozy! I like these two poses because they're masculine, yet also tender. They'll always remind you of the time in which baby was so fresh, new and petite that she fit perfectly in your hands. So sweet. 

With this beautiful mama, I posed her so that baby feels close and she can be connected with little one.

Here are the rest of my favorite images from my time with them! She slept wonderfully for me and barely made me a peep.
