Newborn Photography

Every newborn photographer has a mental folder labeled “Sessions That Went Way Too Smoothly—Was That Real?” This baby session fits in there perfectly!

This little lady showed up with her big brother (a BPP alumni), and from start to finish, it was one of those sessions where the stars aligned, the baby snoozed like a champ, and not a single diaper disaster hit the set. Peaceful, sleepy perfection and a camera roll full of adorable.

Now, was part of it luck? Absolutely. Babies have their own agenda, and sometimes they decide to be angels just to mess with us. But a lot of it comes down to experience.

After 15 years in the game, I’ve learned how to read baby cues, soothe the fussies before they start, and nail the timing so everyone wins. I know which poses are safe, which ones to skip if baby’s not feelin’ it, and how to keep parents relaxed so the whole session feels more like a cozy visit than a production.

If you're looking for a newborn photographer in West Chester, PA or a Kennett Square newborn photographer who knows how to get those peaceful, dreamy shots without breaking a sweat (well - the studio is kept nice and warm, but the sweat will be from the temps, not the nerves!), you're in the right place.

Sure, I can’t promise every session will run this smoothly—babies are still the boss—but with experience comes preparation, patience, and a whole bag of tricks. Add a sleepy newborn and a little good timing, and magic happens.
