I kind of love 2nd and 3rd time parents! They’re always so relaxed and ready to just hand their baby to me when they come in for their newborn session.

I often look over and see Mom and Dad enjoy some quality time together while I’m photographing their newest little baby. They’re snuggling on the couch, enjoying their latest show on Netflix and drinking a cup of coffee.

These are some of my favorite moments during a newborn session and a reason I love my job. These are memories they’re going to look back on when they see their pictures. They’ll talk about how awake their baby was, laugh about how their baby pooped all over the photographer, and remember just how little their baby was.
