Kaylee's First Photo Shoot! ~ Tacoma Newborn Photographer

In my line of work, you might think I occasionally get tired of photographing cute little girls.  I mean, they are just so sweet and precious and wrinkly... you might think I've got some kind of "cuteness-limit."  Well, thankfully, I don't!  I can never get enough of adorable newborn girls (mid-shoot accidents and all!).  And now that I have my own little girl, I can't help but think back to when she was new, and then I am not only smitten, I am also nostalgic on top of that!  Yup, cute baby girls put me in somewhat of a predicament.

Little Kaylee was no exception.  She met all the criteria I look for: cute, small, wrinkly, sleepy, and unable to control her bladder.  Yes, her session was destined for sweetness!  :)

Add to that a set of laid-back first-time parents and you have a recipe for adorable newborn portraits.  So go ahead, scroll down and get to know this perfect example of newborn girl cuteness, and see for yourself!


Arguably, my favorite expression on a baby's face.  It means sleep is coming!

Checking me out...

For a while, Kaylee was content to be wrapped up in this uber-soft knit cocoon.  I mean, who wouldn't be?

Even when she was awake, Kaylee was so calm.  It was great!

Wrinkly fingers? Check.  Pouty lips?  Check and check!

This is about as close as I get to posing newborns.  She seemed to find so many delightful sleeping positions on her own!


It's fun to see what newborns do with their hands before they even realize that they have hands...

Speaking of hands, this girl means business!

And I'll leave you on a sleepy, black-and-white note.  Beautiful.


Well, as always, thank you for checking out what I've been up to lately!  I am sure little Kaylee didn't disappoint; she is such a little sweetheart!  Make sure to stay tuned for more blog posts in the next couple of weeks.  I have a huge back-log of work that I need to share with you all!
