Check out what M's sweet mama had to say about her newborn portraiture experience with Sarah Borchgrevink Photography:

I can't say enough positive things about our experience with Sarah Borchgrevink Photography. We have chosen Sarah to document both of our children's newborn photos and the results were beautifully stunning photos we will treasure forever. Sarah is extremely talented and professional. She communicated effectively so we were prepared for our session, worked well with our whole family (toddler included) and handled our newborn with care. If you're in the market for newborn photos I highly recommend Sarah!

Rustic Burnt Red for Autumn

Fall is undoubtedly my favorite season. Of course, if you live in the south, we don't have much of an autumn, but we do have a short reprieve in which the humidity levels drop to less than 100 percent and we see some temperatures in the low 80's. As a native Houstonian, I will take this any day! We earn our fall season in the south because it's just so warm year around. One cannot help but be excited about the slight change in seasons; this is when the holidays are closer, a new school year is beginning, there are lots of fun family friendly festivals, and there's just something in the air: anticipation and excitement about what the rest of the year has in store.

However small our changes in seasons are, I cannot help but be inspired when it comes to my newborn fine art sessions. You see, babies are art: sometimes people think newborn photographers just lay babies on a backdrop and snap a few photos, but much more goes into it. We take posing courses, lighting classes, and spend hours mentoring. We learn the best post processing tricks of the trade, invest in thousands of dollars in professional equipment, and are constantly striving to be better at our craft.

This in mind, I ordered a new backdrop to add to my ever growing prop collection. This burnt rustic red is simply divine and really captures the spirit of autumnal hues. I do tend to select classic, timeless pieces and avoid trends at all costs, so color and texture are how I set myself apart. The use of color adds soul and vibrancy to your images, too. 

Here are some of my favorite photos from Baby M's full newborn collection! I'll be previewing family later this week so stay tuned to see an adorable older sibling + doting, gorgeous parents.

Wishing you a great week! Come visit again soon!

Muted Mauve For a Perfectly Petite Princess | Meet Rory

Sarah Borchgrevink Photography is a Houston Newborn Photographer specializing in custom posed studio sessions for your precious cherub baby.

Welcome To The World Sweet Rory

Hi, there! Welcome to my blog! I'm so excited you've found your way here. Chances are you may be interested in seeing a super sweet baby girl session. You're in luck - I have all the newborn cuteness you need! 

Rory Grace and her family visited my Houston Newborn Portrait Studio when she was 9 days fresh and new. Posed newborn sessions do take place when baby is 14 days or newer; I do, however, make exceptions and will sometimes take them up to 18 days if needed. Rory weighed just over 6 pounds at birth. She has a head full of soft blond hair, a fair complexion, and full cherub lips. What a little beauty! She visited for a full newborn collection so this post will show the highlights from my time with her.

Her parents visited from lovely Spring, TX - just north of Houston. My studio is convienetly located so thanks to the 99 toll road, clients from The Woodlands, Spring, Magnolia, Conroe, Montgomery or any suburb in the Northern Houston areas are able to quickly travel to me, typically in about half an hour.

White, Sage Green, Plum Purple and Muted Mauve Color Scheme

When booking a posed newborn session with Sarah Borchgrevink Photography, your sessions are custom designed. Often, parents are unsure what that means. It's simple,  promise! Everything is provided for your session. Each bow, tie back, fabric, wrap, head band, bonnet, hat, crate, bowl, box, etc - you have full access to all props. I style each and every session around a few colors you may like, but also pull inspiration from the colors that I most enjoy using. I am consistently adding new items to my prop stash and coming up with new combinations. That's where the custom aspect comes into play: new combinations, new set ups, and creative and unique wrapping allows me to showcase the beauty of your newborn baby.

Here's what Rory Grace's parents relayed about their experience at Sarah's studio:

We found Sarah by searching through Instagram. Immediately I feel in love & knew it would be an investment well spent. As soon as we showed up she made us feel at home & her set up was so personal & professional. She was so welcoming & got to know us which meant a lot. I have never seen anyone handle a baby like she did. We kept giggling b/c we were in awe over her & our baby! If only we could put Sarah in our pocket and carry her around with us at all times it would help the first time parents out quite a bit lol! Our prints turned out amazing, she got them to us sooner than expected & overall the experience was phenomenal. HIGHLY recommend.

This set up is especially sweet because it's a soft mint and safe green. This is one of my favorite colors for newborn girls - it's timeless, classic and also adds a pop of color to your walls. This wooden crate is one of my favorites, too, because it's rustic and adds character to your portraits. The vintage quilt is a great find I found at an antique store; it needed a bit of cleaning up, but afterwards it's been a beautiful addition to my studio. I also like using this quilt in my outdoor, natural light family sessions, so you may have seen this exact quilt on my blog before, ha! 

After all three floor props, we move to bean bag posing. These poses are super sweet, curly, and show off the womb like nature of a new baby who is fresh and recently earth side. These types of poses are included in my petite and full newborn collections; the wrapped mini, however, is for parents seeking a smaller number of more modest images, so keep that in mind when booking. The full newborn collection comes with 5 poses, however. You may also be interested in reading more about my favorite posing and how I utilize newborn safety during our time together. 

For the naked posing, I used a muted mauve. Mom specifically requested pink; while pink is not always my favorite color since it's used by virtually everyone, it can be styled in more unique aspects such as the hue you use, the type of wrap you use to add a layering piece, the tie back or bonnet, and of course the texture of the drop. I like this drop, shown below, because it's not 100 percent smooth; there are little checkers which are so cute; they add the most adorable nurance to the photos!

Thank you for stopping by my blog! I hope you have a great Thursday and upcoming weekend! Wishing you all my joy and warmth today.
