Tacoma Newborn Photographer ~ Sleeping Soundly

I am super excited to share Judah’s sneak peak with you this evening.  Sessions where I get to use a new newborn photography prop are super special.  Judah’s parents came from Tacoma to have me take his newborn portraits.  Earlier last week I had received a surprise package from a friend with this beautiful gift.  I was so excited!  I had visions of how I would use it inside the studio and plans for being brave and trying something new by taking it out to use in my beautiful yard.  I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect situation as a photographer.  Judah is a stunning baby, it was a sunny day, he had finally settled into a sound sleep and I had the perfect spot outside in mind.  First we got the shot above.  I wanted to make sure we had something beautiful in case my experiment outdoors was a flop.  I am still learning to use natural light and to take pictures I am proud of in the great Washington outdoors.  It has been a very scary journey for me.  We wrapped Judah up all warm and snug and got him settled into the spot I had in mind.  Then I fixed his posing as much as he would let me with him still warm under a big blanket.  We took the big blanket off, took a few quick pictures and hustled him back inside.  He hardly made a peep.  I love that I have both of these images to give to his parents.  One that is traditionally me and one that is all about the place they call home; the beautiful pacific northwest.  Special thanks to my wonderful friend for a prop I am head over heels in love with.
