Arlington VA Newborn Photography – Baby Bryn

I had the privilege of photographing 5 day old Bryn on Monday. Such a tiny little thing at less than 7 pounds, she was as cute as a button! She is also strong as she rolled over and could lift up her head. Very impressive for a newborn! Her mommy had quite the exercise regimen while pregnant and apparently that benefited Bryn too!
It took some time for her to settle into a deep sleep, but being so young, once she was asleep, she was out. She was a natural model, smiling for the camera even with her eyes closed. 🙂

Arlington VA newborn baby photographerNothing compares to that fresh, innocent look of a newborn baby. They grow and change so quickly! A newborn photo session requires time for diaper changes and feedings (think 3 to 5 hours total), but is so worth the sweet pictures that result!
Bryn’s mommy was so organized and contacted me early in her pregnancy to let me know her due date and to get all the info about a newborn photo session. When the due date approached we were in touch to tentatively schedule a date which was confirmed after the baby’s arrival.
It’s so important to catch babies when they are new and sleepy and before baby acne starts. The 5 to 10 day range is ideal. To get in touch with Jan about a newborn shoot, click here then the contact tab.
