Welcoming baby Christian with this family’s in-home lifestyle session was such a pleasure! We kept the focus on family interaction and connection.

I have known the sweet family for several years through my sister and shot big sister Gianna’s pictures first when she was three months old. Then Gianna joined my in the apple orchard last fall for those mini sessions. She is full of so much personality, so smart and funny. Gianna is such a joy to be around and shoot. I loved capturing the gentleness she had with her new baby brother. We started in his adorable rustic themed nursery with just mom snuggles and then with dad. We got the entire family in for a few on the floor of the nursery to capture all of them adoring their newest peanut.

I always like to make the master bedroom a space for shooting as well. The setting really creates a comfy closeness. Gianna was so happy to hold her baby brother and give him kisses. Being the silly girl she is, Gianna grabbed a pair of her little undies to pretend like it was a camera, having us smile for her and she kid her face behind them 🙂 I always humor the little ones and take their lead to keep things moving smoothly and light-hearted. Mom and dad ordered some beautiful circular wood prints to display as a grouping in their home. They look amazing! Thank you again to this wonderful family! Enjoy some favorites…there are a lot!
