behind the scenes: newborn session

I always think it’s so much fun to see these, so I thought I’d share a little behind the scenes with you. I try to remember to step back and take pictures of the surroundings, but usually I forget. This time, I happened to catch a glimpse of it in the mirror and thought "ooooh, perfect!" Enjoy, but don’t let it fool you. Newborns aren’t always this peaceful. We were pretty darned lucky with this little angel.

I would love to know which lens and aperture you’re using in this shot…it’s beautiful! (Of course your work always is) :)

Thanks for sharing! I’ve never tried using a hair dryer during a session! Works pretty well?

I stumbled upon your blog quite a few months ago and I just love every blog you post! I find that I’m drawn to your images because they are so stimulating and pristine! Lovely, just lovely.

What a great idea, I never thought to use a hair dryer!! I always use the heating pad on the bean bag and that works wonders too. Love the behind the scenes shot!

Boy does that look familiar! The hair dryer during newborn sessions has changed my shooting life! Best $10 I ever spent. :)
